A New Year

Favorites of 2010:
*Claire Elizabeth Brog. Born April 8th.
*The holidays with Lilly. This year she finally got them. Halloween and Christmas will never be forgotten.
*Girls Trip to Arizona. Can we please go back?!
*Being a mom. I look back on the year, and it seems like most everything I loved or enjoyed was because of my family. They have brought a joy into my life that I can't hardly explain.

Looking forward to 2011:
*Lilly's first real trip to Disneyland (she went when she was like 4 months old. we don't count that one!)
*It should be an exciting year with Anton's job. I am really proud of him.
*Lilly will start preschool. I don't know if that is really something I am looking forward too though.
*A vacation for just me and Anton is in the works. Can't wait!

Hopes for the year:
*Become more organized, and get rid of "junk". I really dislike my small little house having clutter in it. It makes it even that more small.
*Less TV, More books. For everyone. I read books with Lilly today for about 45 minutes while Claire was down. It felt SO good.
*I want to have at least one day a week day with my kids where I devote the whole day to them. No cleaning, No laundry, No Vacuuming...just them. Well, I will still have to cook - but that's ok! :) This will be a hard one for me. Sad, I know. It drives me nuts to have a messy house, but what would drive me more nuts is to think back one day and say "why didn't I spend more precious time with them". It scares me how fast time flies, and I just don't want to have any regrets with how I spent my time.
*Grow in the gospel. Become more Christlike. Remember all of my many blessings.
*Get in better shape. I am working on it...but, want to work harder.

Here's to 2011...looking forward to another great year!
