Hopes for 2011




Okay, so as is customary for the beginning of a new year, I have made a few resolutions myself...

1. I really want to take more pictures this year. I love pictures and love looking at pictures. I guess I get this from my Mama. She takes pictures (way too many!!!!) of everything. These are precious times in my life as a newlywed, and I will never regret having too many pictures of our life together. Hence, the reason for this blog. Trust me, I am not a great writer, but this is a place that I want to post my pictures so that I will have a diary of this year for Christopher and I. 

2. I NEED to learn how to cook. I mean, it's getting ridiculous. I don't even like what I cook, so I know Christopher is suffering! I promise, it is not a lack of effort, because I really do try to cook most nights. I really need some tried and true recipes that I know that we will like. But there is hope...Christopher's favorite cook in the world, his Mema, wasn't a good cook when she got married either. So there is hope for me!!!!

3. I have been very intrigued with the new shopping revolution...COUPONING.  Over the past couple of days, I have seen 2 different shows on tv that are spotlighting couponing and how it can save so much money. These people are getting tons of stuff for free, and sometimes getting money back from using coupons. What in the world? So that is one of my goals...I want to start clipping coupons and see what can happen. Who knows..I might only save $5 at first, but hopefully it will be worth my time. Want to help? Save me your coupons from the Sunday paper!!!

As I am looking back over this post, I am surprised that these things are coming out of my mouth (or hands ha). I sound like an old housewife. AHHH!!! That's okay though...my resolutions are getting more and more evolved every year.  Happy New Year Y'all!!

  1. Yes, take tons of pictures! I sadly realized when my Christopher and I eloped that I forgot to take pictures that day! I still feel terrible, but we were so wrapped up in the day and each other, we just completely forgot! I think I'll steal your resolution for this year :)
