georgia's first snow

Monday, February 3, 2014

On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 Georgia experienced her first encounter with snow!  To be honest, she wasn't too thrilled with how cold it was, or the idea of being bundled up like a marshmallow.  I think she'll be more of a salt water and sand girl.  
But hey!  She still looked cute!  Below are some pictures from our snow day :)

** I am thankful that my family was in our home, safe and sound and able to enjoy the snow - however my prayers go out to all of those families down south who struggled to be together and had quite a mess.  













2014 goal setting V IV

Friday, January 31, 2014

Eeeeeeeek!  How is it the last day of January?  Crazy!  This year I have taken the entire month of January to plan and prepare for 2014 - setting goals, and creating action plans to accomplish these goals - all with the help of Lara Casey's Powersheets.  And to be honest, I kinda love it.  I love feeling prepared and having accountability.  I love taking time and prayer to decide on goals for the new year.  I'm thinking this may be a thing for me from now on...

But ok!  My 5th a final goal for 2014 - and probably the most important one!

Goal 5  //  To make my relationship with Jesus a priority and commit to prayer.
This year I want to seek Him even more.  With more of my heart, more of my mind and more of my time.  You see, I'm pretty selfish with my time - especially since having a baby.  It's like I get a few free seconds and tend to waste them "relaxing" or laying on the couch watching empty TV.  Not anymore.  This year I am committing to taking my extra seconds, minutes and hours - and even that time that is not "extra" - and spending with Him.  Mostly in prayer.  Honestly, I struggle with prayer.  The dicipline of it.  Sure I pray when I wake up, before meals and when I go to bed, but rarely do I carve out time during my day to truly commit to prayer - other than the two second "Lord, Help me!" prayer.  I spend time reading devotionals and listening to praise music, but again, it's the "still" time that I am missing.  So this year, I'm hoping to commit to time and prayer - even when I don't feel like I have anything to say.

So there they are!  My five goals!  If you missed the other parts of this series you can find them here:
