Hello 2017

I started this little blog about 5 years ago, and I never keep it up. There are many reasons for this:

• I am a bad blogger
• I lost things to blog about early

I want to start blogging again. My life has changed so much these last 5 years. I got married, I had a baby, we bought a house. I am going to become a stay at home Mom and a full-time college student this year. I have made some goals for myself to complete in 2017. I thought reupping this blog will help me keep track and accountable of them.

My 2017 goals are:

• Finish college
• Eat 1000 “home cooked” meals
• Do 208 one hour workouts at the gym
• Run a 5K

I plan to update this blog as often as possible to make sure I track these goals. I will be sure to post about how I plan to complete these.

I also hope to fill this blog with lovely photos of my family and updates on how our lives unfold this year.

 

Cheers to 2017!

Remember when it snowed in the winter…

We here in good old Michigan we are no strangers to snow. Sadly we have had hardly any snow, not even a white Christmas. I’ve been sad about it, being one of the few in the world who loves snow. Through out December and the start of January I was going around asking people if they remembered when is snowed in the winter. I got a kick out of it, not sure if anyone else did.  Then finally the snow hit us, YAY!. So I figured to celebrate the snow I would write a top 5 list.

Top 5 Things I Love To Do In The Snow!

1) Build a snow man

2)Have a snowball fight

3) Sled behind a four wheeler

4) Ice Ski

5) Snow Angles

 

I’m sorry I don’t have photos for all 5 of the top 5. I will be sure from now on to have all the photo’s for the next top 5.

Outfit time

So I told myself on my birthday that I need to wear all the cloths that I own. I have a closest that is overflowing with stuff. So with my attempt to wear it all at some point, I took a picture of my outfit for today.

I’m not the most fashionable person I know, but i’m finding this project fun. My sweet boyfriend took these few picture for me. He’s very supportive on letting me have my fun with blogging and new things.

The photos where taken on our front porch. Please don’t mind the air conditioner, we keep meaning to take it to the basement or garage yet, we keep forgetting.

Sickness has hit home.

So I was ready for a nice relaxing weekend but no it’s wasn’t going to happen. I got hit with the worst stomach flu of the season. I thought I was so lucky because I had yet to get sick. Bah, no such luck. So now it Sunday, this all started Thursday night, I’m feeling a little bit better. Now the boyfriend is sick again! He just got over a 3 week illness just to be hit with this flu that I had, I feel awful getting him sick. Our poor puppy Lola doesn’t know what to think of all this going on. All she wants is us to play fetch with her and we keep shooing her away. I’m trying the best I can with cleaning all the blankets and towel and cloth that have gotten messy. It will get done, maybe not all today but hopefully this week.

The Start

Hello

I’m Beth, this is my blog. I told myself when i turned 26 that i need to start a blog. It needs to be filled with things that make me happy, and smile. So here I go with it. I’m hoping to have many things on here, like photos, ideas home deco, and maybe even some of my favorite outfits. Hopefully this site wil make you smile like it does to me.
