13 in 2013

It is hard to believe that in just a few days that 2013 will be over. This has definitely been a year for the books for me!
I am excited to link up with Hadar, Kristin, and Traci for their end of year link party to highlight some of the things that happened in 2013. 

thirteen. favorite article of clothing
Hands down it would have to be leggings. I love that I can wear them with a longer shirt, with a dress, or with a t-shirt and they are all acceptable. 

twelve. favorite move you watched

 Catching Fire. No contest. I think I may have liked this one even more than the first one if that is possible. 

eleven. favorite TV series
I have no idea how they are able to film this show. There is no way I could ever be serious enough to make that happen. I just love Sheldon Cooper. 

ten. favorite restaurant
I live in a small town that has very limited options. Subway is usually my first choice when I want something to eat. I could eat sandwiches everyday and be okay with it. 

nine. favorite new thing you tried
I am not really sure what I tried new this year. Does Sour Cream count? I used to think it was horrible, but now I do not mind it on food. 

eight. favorite gift you got
I may have bought it for myself, but I say it counts. :)
My MacBook Pro!!!

seven. favorite thing you pinned

six. favorite blog post
The one where I shared pictures of my classroom. 

five. best accomplishment
This is hard because I have several this year. 
I walked across the stage in May with my Masters in Education with Principal Certification.
I passed my Principal Certification test on my first try in July. 

four. favorite picture
These are the three best friends that a girl could ask for. We were all at a friend's wedding and there was a photo booth. This just sums up our craziness perfectly. Not sure what I would do without them. :)

three. favorite memory
April 4th…I went to the elementary school to talk with the principal about a possible transfer to the campus from the middle school. I expected to have to go through the entire interview process again, but five minutes later I was offered the 1st grade position. 

two. goal for 2014
I attended a Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University Class this past year and I would like to follow it with fidelity in 2014. Any tips? I want to do 12 budgets and use the envelope system. 

one. one little word
faith.

I want to trust His plan for my life and really dive deeper into His word.

  1. Regarding Dave Ramsey....figure out what you're currently spending. Figure out the categories you're going to use in your budget (ie groceries, gas for car, rent/mortgage, etc). Then for about a month, keep track of what you CURRENTLY are spending. Then you'll really be able to see where you need to tighten the belt. It's worked well for us. (We've done a modified version of the Envelope System for 10 years -- we don't use envelopes, we keep it all budgeted on a spreadsheet, I'm leery about having that kind of cash on hand.)

    Happy New Year :)
