A Lot to Take In

Woops!  Just found this post from January that I started and never posted.  Please enjoy whilst I finish typing another one :)

I've actually been meaning to do this post for a while, but now I think it's going to be a combo with another one I've been thinking about.

I love my brothers!  I am the luckiest girl in the world to have gotten FOUR brothers to look up to.  I mean, technically I'm older than 3 of them, but I still look up to all of them.  Not just because they're all taller than me either.  Yes, even Mark is taller ;)  But seriously, my brothers are the greatest examples to me.  They're not afraid to work hard and go for their dreams.  They're all very talented in their own ways.  They're patient, compassionate; they have strong testimonies, and they're all great priesthood holders.  I could go on...but I'll just say that I have been super blessed!



Next:  We had Stake Conference this weekend and it was amazing.  I loved every second of it!  It kind of reiterated a lot of things I've been trying to work on lately.  No, these are not New Year's Resolutions, just things I've been working on for a while and still need to be better at.  So...I decided that rather than keeping them to myself, maybe I'll put them out here so that y'all can keep me accountable for them too!

1. Work on saying my morning prayers - I've never been great at that.  I rarely miss evenings, but I always struggle in the morning.

2.  Not to be so critical of others.  I need to look for the good in others first.  If I catch myself being critical, I'm going to find something good about that person instead.

3.  Get back to the temple weekly, as I used to.

4.  Be more active in the YSA/Mid-Singles activities

5.  Get back into a regular running/work out routine.

6.  Get back on track in my eating habits.  Less sugar/soda/junk and more of the good stuff!

7.  Start my family history.

Ok, I think that's all for now.  Whew!
