Best. Year. Ever.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I can't believe it is officially 2014. 2013 was quite literally the best year ever because, well, obviously because I finally married my best friend and that was the best day ever! I don't foresee 2014 topping that, but it doesn't mean I am not excited for a fresh start to a new year. 365 days of possibilities, opportunities, and blessings. 2013 was full of our highest highs and some lows as well.

Bobby graduated from Simon with his MBA.
We moved cross country back to CA.
WE GOT MARRIED!
Bobby started at American Express 2 days after our wedding.
We moved to Arizona 5 days before our wedding.
I found out I am going to be an AUNTIE to my nephew Maddox! :)
Grandma Dorthy passed away just 10 days after our wedding.
We celebrated 12 years together.
We spent Christmas with family for the first time in 2 years.
Celebrated births, marriages, and many engagements of friends!

People make fun of  others who make "resolutions" and mock them for only making them at the beginning of the year. I applaud them. I always think it is a good thing to set goals for yourself, whether it be in June 1st or January 1st whatever motivates you and gets you thinking about working towards bettering yourself I am all for it! I made resolutions last year that I posted on here and I actually completed a few of them. I finished P90x, I traveled, and I definitely did my best to live in the present and go with the flow…especially when everything possible was happening in the days leading up to our wedding I would like to stay I stayed pretty calm and as stress free as one person could possibly be given he circumstances.

I always have room to improve, I definitely fell off the clean eating/exercise wagon the last 1/3 of this year after the wedding and that's ok. I am not back where I was this time last year, I am still much fitter than that and I plan to start this year the same way I started last year. Detox and hitting that P90x grind again. They came out with P90x3 and I am REALLY excited to start it. Bobby and I have made a pact to get fit together this year. Last time I was on this journey alone and I exceeded my own expectations. I was pretty much the fittest I have ever been in my life and if only I had kept it up throughout the year. ;) Programs like P90x really work for me and really get me on track where I need to be. So cliche to have a fitness resolution, but it worked for me before so I know it will again! I will finish P90x3! :)

Another goal of ours is to travel somewhere TOGETHER. We both traveled last year, but separately. He went to India and I went to Hawaii so this year we will hopefully be taking our belated honeymoon..if you want to call it that and travel somewhere abroad together! Where? Who knows!?

I also want to read more books. I used to read a lot, but I haven't read hardly anything this year aside from the Grey trilogy lol

Another goal is to pay off all of our credit card debt that we have accrued over the years. We have been slowly chipping away at it since Bobby started at Amex, but it our ultimate goal to be debt free (aside from student loans) by this time next year, if not sooner. It is definitely doable, but will be something we have to really work towards.

These are the main goals we want to accomplish over the course of the year. I am sure once we complete some we will come up with others as well. These give us something to work and strive to accomplish and I know that we can and will do it.

What are your New Year's resolutions/goals? Or just life goals in general?

Hope everyone had a fantastic first day to 2014!
