Hiking With the Cougars!?!

I am so blessed to live where I do! Today I decided that I wanted to go for a hike. In under 10 min I was parked and able to go for a 2 hour hike on a beautiful sunny day! I often think I would like to go hiking but I'm paranoid that I'm going to run into a cougar or a bear (thanks Mom and Dad). As I was thinking this I remembered the day mom and I were walking in town and came across a cougar so I figured what the heck and off I went!

I need to take advantage of these beautiful places more often cougars and all!

Confession #1

I only take my vitamins when I write it on my to do list.

I took vitamins on and off over my life but I've never been good at it. I take them for a day but then I forget to, or don't want to. I know that in order for me to get all the nutrition I need to have a healthy body I have to take them. So I will! I will put it on my to do list and I will take them everyday so I can cross it off my list!

If only vitamins were this yummy!

2014 is Coming!

Today while I was sitting on the beach reflecting on this past year I realized I haven't grown much this year. Last year I had the opportunity to do tons of fun things and I really enjoyed my year but I want to be about more then that. As I was sitting there I realized that I need to make a conscious effort to grow or I'm not going to, I can't just go with the flow or things won't change. So in 2014 my goal is to grow! Grow closer to God, become a more fit and healthy person and reduce my debt. Of course I hope to have some fun in there too :)

So each month I'm going to do something in each of these 3 categories! January I'm joining an online Bible study. We are going to be studying the book Made to Crave. Physically I'm going to stick to the curves complete program I'm on. Financially... I'm going to Disneyland in February so I'm going to be cutting back a ton on my spending to pay for that trip :)

This year my ultimate goal is Ephesians 4:22-24

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. 

Ephesians 4:22-24  

In 2014 I'm going to be blogging at least once a week to update on how I'm doing and to set more goals! What are you doing in 2014 to improve yourself?
