Resolutions....

With the new year, I like almost all Americans have made resolutions... I don't want to change who I am. So therefore my resolutions will be to better myself. A few that I have are to create as many memories with my family that I can. Even if they are the tiniest of memories I want to make them. Be more healthy. Yes that means cutting back on the sweets and soda, but I am human and I do enjoy food. It makes me happy. I come from a family who makes delicious Mexican food, why would I cut myself off from that?? Not to mention I do enjoy a cold, crisp Diet Coke with limes as well :) Stop swearing: Let's be honest... I'm my father's daughter... cursing is just part of the language I speak.... But cutting back, I'm definitely trying to do that. Making it on time for church: Church is at 9, I'm not a morning person. Do I really need to defend this?? Have family prayer & scripture study more regularly: Byron and I decided we need this. We've gotten better on praying but we struggle with family scripture study. If anyone has any advice, pass it along!! Our biggest resolution: Go through the temple by May. I want my family to be an eternal family. I don't think I could ever imagine my life without these two. I want to be with them for eternity. This has been a major goal for Byron and I. When we talked about this when we were first married we were so close to it living in Wyoming. Then we moved back to St. George and it got really hard for me to even want to go to church because of how our ward was towards us. We started going back to our old ward up in Winchester, the one we both grew up in. It made me feel the way I did when we were in Wyoming. We serve our calling faithfully and love every minute of it. We feel we are more ready than ever to go through the temple. I have so much faith in us. Here's to us and making 2013 even better than 2012 was!!! Good luck to you and your resolutions!!!
