Happy 2014

Well, its a new year and time for me to get back to blogging. It is such a good way to document what is going on with our family and I have really slacked the last two years. 2013 was a crazy year filled with a lot of changes. We have built a house in Herriman and we are really liking the new area. I am so excited for 2014, because I think this is the year for me! The boys are both getting to school age and I have the opportunity to start thinking about what I want to do with myself. I have decided to start working on getting my teaching license renewed so when Dylan is ready to begin school, I can start too-as a teacher! I  plan to get a social studies composite endorsement so I can teach middle or high school social studies, geography, psychology, or sociology. I loved teaching theatre but the time commitment with a family is not something I want to try and juggle. Ideally I would love to teach part time. I found out I can take online courses through USOE for free! I am so excited and start this Thursday. Clint and I also talked about what we would like to focus on this year and here's our list....

Get Healthy-Eat better and get into an exercise routine.

Spice things up-Be open to try new things and have new adventures.

Short and hopefully doable. So far we are off to a great start! I have always wanted to sign up to take a love and logic class together, so I have gotten on it, found a sitter (Grandparents rock) and made it happen. We start this week. We also decided we really need to make our relationship a priority, and now that the boys are getting older, it is so much easier to make that happen. The plan is to have a date night at least once a month and shake things up a bit by trying some new things. Friday I planned our first date of the year. We went to the Galivan Center and went Ice Skating. then to Dinner some where new, and a movie. We had a blast!
 
And who knew we would be so good at it..he he.
Here's to a great new year with many new Adventures!
