Byebye 2014

We had a good Christmas! I didn’t feel motivated to put a tree up this year, so on the 21st after I came home from Mom’s Brad had put up the tree and decorations! Heh. Katie wanted a train set from Santa, so she got one! We went to visit Brad’s Mom & sisters from Friday 26th till the 30th, so we got home late Tuesday. It was a nice visit!

I had been trying the ketosis way of eating… basically lots of healthy fats, tiny amounts of carbs, and only a certain amount of protein… but I started to go bald on top of my head eating that way!!!! No thx. I’m seriously going to try vegan again. I know, I know. It’s been this, that, and another, but this is what I want to stick with and see what happens. I bought some fresh juice, dates, rice, sweet potatoes, and these little potatoes.

I’m ready to rock 2015. 2014 was an ok year, but I felt miserable health-wise most of the time. I WILL change that in 2015, or at least try my best!!! NEVER GIVE UP! There are plenty of people who have done wonderfully with a vegan lifestyle and I know I can achieve that.

Also, it’s SUPER NICE to not have to worry about school work, until next week. Brad goes back to work Friday, since he took extra time off around Christmas.

CHEERS TO AWESOMENESS FOR 2015!!! Wishing everyone nothing but happiness and peace <3 will post my 2015 goals tomorrow!

Nine years

SQUEE. Yesterday made it nine of years of marriage for me and hubby!!! He got me beautiful Christmas-inspired flowers, with pine! Also, cute stuffed animals… a baby penguin and baby turtle. I’m thankful for him, even though we are very different, but the love is still the same. Becoming closer to my Heavenly Father and going to the marriage class at church last year helped me to understand how sacred and great a marriage is and that you keep fighting to be with that person, even through the struggles and hardships.

Umm, still don’t have our tree up yet. WOOPS. Hopefully this weekend. Katie got a PURPLE in school last week! Purple is the best color you can get, so she got a piece of candy and a special prize for that. Just been keeping up with school work and everything else.

Thankful for nine years of marriage and I’m gonna make the next nine the best it can be for us! Happy Holidays guys. Sending positive vibes and joy to you today. =)

The First

HAPPY DECEMBER!!! 2014 will be over before we know it.

backup… let’s highlight!

– We had a chill Thanksgiving, since Katie had been sick with a cold that was impacting her eyes.. had really red eyes, eye gunk, but we got it all cleared up
– Didn’t get to go visit Brad’s family, but hoping to go this month
– Finished my psychology of learning class, now onto abnormal psychology
– Been ONE MONTH of the Keto lifestyle.. love it!

– Went off thyroid meds and feel better, actually (at the recommendation of a chiro)

What else…
– Bought a new water filter that hooks onto our faucet
– Putting up our xmas tree soon!!
– Brad is getting certified to ride a motorcycle through his job and training is this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. He isn’t getting a bike, but wants to get training to feel more involved with the company.
– We’ve been sharing internet with my cousin the last few years, but we get our own TUESDAY!! STOKED. Maybe that will help my lag in my game.

I am excited for 2015… 15 is one of my favorite numbers and also my birthday. It will be an epic year!
HAVE AN AWESOME WEEK!!! <3
