So, it's 2011! Here's to a Happy New Year!
Kit over at A Step Into My Life is hosting 11 in 2011! So, I'm joining in! Yesterday, being that it was 1/1/11, was the first day. But, my internet was taking a holiday. So, I'll catch up today!
Day 1 .... NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS:
* I want to keep up and improve my workout routine! Running is my new goal. So far, I am only running just under ten minutes in intervals with walking. But, I feel like I can do more/better if I keep going! Also, I want to have a little more variety in exercise... Jazzercise with my buddies Caroline and Emily and pilates at home.
* Cooking at home is fun and enjoyable to Sam and me. But, we often get stuck in the same cooking routine and often make the same meals. I want to work on varying it up a little more this year!
* I hope to continue to work on paying our student loans. Eek!
* I want to work on being a better person in general... being a better wife, being open and flexible in our journey to having a baby, being a better friend!
Day 2... FAVORITE HOLIDAY MEMORY:
From childhood, my favorite holiday memories were spending time with family and the little things "Santa" used to do for my sister and me on Christmas morning.
On Christmas morning, there was usually a trail of Hershey Kisses from the bedroom my sister and I shared to the presents under our Christmas tree in the living room. I remember getting a Popple (remember those?) one year. All the gifts were wonderful and appreciated, but that one really sticks out in my mind. We always had Christmas lunch at my Momo's house. It usually went like this.... big holiday lunch, clean up, open gifts, and then we'd all hang out in the den/read the paper/play/fall asleep. Our family holiday routines have changed a bit, but it's always been fun no matter how it's changed.
Christmas time with Sam is always fun. We make the rounds and visit everyone in his family and mine, and we try to make time for us to celebrate together, too. Once we have a baby, we'll have even more happy memories to make!
