My Goals for Thirty

Today I turn thirty and it just feels right!  I don’t know if it’s because I just had a baby or what but I’m really excited about the big 3-0!  29 was a really great year for me and my family and I feel like 30 is the start of a new chapter!  Here are some of the highlights of 29…

29

October – Ran the Army 10 Miler

November – Ran the Alexandria Turkey Trot

December – Went on an amazing cruise and found out we were pregnant!

January – Enjoyed a few snow days and told our families we were expecting

February – Announced our pregnancy

March – Traveled to Dallas and San Antonio

April – Traveled to Niagara Falls and enjoyed the cherry blossoms

May – Walked the Race for the Cure 5K

June – Ran a 5K at 29 weeks and Theodore turned 2

July – Celebrated our 2 year anniversary and was absolutely spoiled at my baby shower

August – Enjoyed our last month before baby and took my last spin class at 40 weeks

September – Had our beautiful daughter Magnolia

Much like new years, birthdays provide a fresh start! An opportunity to look at the past and to make plans for the future.  Now y’all know I am quite the planner and goal setter, but I’m learning to live more in the moment and to make the most of what I’ve been given.  I achieved all of my goals for 29, and then some, so I’m excited to embrace 30!  My goals and plans for thirty are a mix of things that will impact daily life and things I hope to do long term.  I’m really excited about the year ahead and hope to knock a few things off this list!

My Goals for Thirty

  1. Find a healthy balance between being a wife and mom, my professional career, blogging, and AdvoCare
  2. Work on budgeting and saving for long term goals
  3. Achieve the weight loss goals I’ve set for myself
  4. Put more time and energy into how I dress
  5. Become a certified spin instructor and pursue teaching
  6. Plan a few vacations (cabin weekend and beach getaway)

I’m really grateful for all that occurred in my 20’s and I really look forward to this next decade!  I know it’ll be filled with lots of love and memories! Here’s to 30!
