New Years Prep

This whole week I've been blessed to have off work, which I needed a few days to sleep in without an alarm set and no plans to just relax & have time to work out.

Now, its Saturday and I am enjoying more time to make my house pretty. Last night @ 12am- it was discovered this pretty face had peed on our bed & we had to do emergency laundry with our sheets/blankets.

Don't be fooled by her big brown eyes

But I wanted to take a moment to recap on 2012 since celebrating New Years is in 3 days! 

Celebrated 1 year at my job & moved into our first house on 1/1/12.

Now we're about to bring in 2013 & I couldn't be more excited. Here's a list of things I'm determined to do:

2) Will be working hard to lose my Biggest Loser weight. 

3)  Spending more time being active.

4) Taking more time to keep our house looking great.

5) Giving my Pampered Chef biz my full focus.

Have a very Happy New Year! See you in 2013 :) -Jessica
