2018- A New Year

   I think this has been one of the most exciting New Year's Day I've ever had! In the past I haven't paid too much attention to the New Year. However, this year came with all sorts of feels. There are so many changes happening and about to happen. First, Jackson and I will be moving here soon. We're going up to Herriman to live with my mom and Uipo for a little while. They offered it to us so that we could save up a down payment for a house. As you can imagine, it makes it difficult to save up when we're paying for school, rent, etc. Needless to say, we're excited to work hard and get a down payment saved up!

   Next, we're both graduating from school. There is so much excitement that comes with graduating from school. Even though some days (most days to tell the truth) I find myself wishing this time would pass sooner rather than later so Jackson and I can get on to "living life" ... as it comes to an end I realize that even through the hardest times, there is something so beautiful and happy about this stage of life as crazy as it may be. It's always so hard to see a chapter of your life close. Jack and I have talked about how we just have to enjoy where we are. Appreciate the chapters that have closed but be excited for the ones that are about to open. Each stage of life has something so unique to offer. It's a crazy feeling though... because since I was born I've been told go to school, go on a mission, get married, get a degree, etc. As of right now, it seems like we're about to come to an end of that trail. What lies ahead is so unknown and really can be molded into anything we want it to be.

   Also, Jackson and I are both trying to be more healthy. The stresses of life since we got married have caused us to not be as healthy as we'd want to be. Now that this stage of life is wrapping up, it feels like we're more able to focus on our health. I am so excited to see all that we can accomplish this year. All I have to say is, BRING ON THE NEW YEAR! We got all our Christmas decorations taken down today and put away. We have goals set and are ready to go. Here's to 2018!!! This is our year.💗


My cute new planner for this year. :)
