Last year I didn’t really make resolutions, but had two clear guidelines: No expectations and break through limitations. Life delivers great opportunities to walk through new doors and accept closed ones….as well as be content with the door you already walked through. Those guidelines I kind of forgot about come summer, but I had already started forming the habit of this mindset. What a difference the right mindset can make. It was a challenging year, but one of my favorites. I hope this year can just be another opportunity to love my family well, try a few new things, and try to conquer life long bad and good habits. What are your resolutions and goals for 2016?

{Sleeping his way through every holiday.}

{..and you just settle for take 22. // Little striped shirts from Everlane, mouse purse from Donsje}
I think many of mine will unravel as the year goes. I do know for certain I could conquer some goals in the fitness department (like run consistently for more than one month), and the kitchen (I am ready for you kitchen aid!). However, my biggest goal is to be perceptive to the needs of my family, and to love them with a diligent heart. It’s a tough one, but worth all of my energy.
I have some fun new series I am working on building for IHOD and I cannot wait to share them with you.
Happy New Year!
