Guys, I have been one heck of a crap blogger this week. Surry. I promise I'll be better next week! ...Hopefully. ;) Anyway, if any of you still care, I'm finally ready to post about dem new year resolutions! Now, I posted part of my aims for 2015 already on Instagram, so those of you who follow me on good old IG probably already know about this first part. I want to really work on seeing others how God sees them. All of 2014 I was so focused on trying to get others to see me for me and look beyond my outward appearance that I didn't realize that I wasn't extending them the same courtesy. How rude of me, right? ;) Anyway, that's, in large part, what motivated that resolution for 2015! Hear's to having more Christ like love for my neighbors! Another one of my goals for this year is to not forget to MAKE time for the people around me. I've learned the painful way that no trial, stress, or worry is more important than a person to be loved! With that lesson in mind, one of my biggest goals for 2015 is to try to be more present when I'm spending time with loved ones and be more willing to serve them by being more giving/compromising with my time! Last of all, (well not really, I've got a few more goals for this year but I'm keeping those to myself thank ya very much) I want to get out and adventure more this year! I want to just LIVE in nature this Summer and really SEE and APPRECIATE God's creations! Comment below with your New Year Resolutions or email me with them, I'd love to hear! Oh, and because I just get a kick out of sharing my obsession with music with anyone/everyone I can, here's a band you all absolutely MUST check out! They're local to Utah, (Gentri, you best give em a listen;) and pretty much all sorts of good! Happy listening!



Much love!

Lint, Lint, Lint

Forgive my inability to lint roll my coat. I was just too lazy to do it and I figured that some minor photo editing would render my lint buried jacket unnoticeable. I was wrong. Just pretend it's lint free ok? Ok. In other news, my arms are complete jelly right now. Com. Plete. Jelly. Oh, and guys, my bench pressing abilities are abysmal. It's sad really, how bad they are. In fact, they're so embarrassing I don't even want to mention how little I can bench. But let's just say I'm basically benching a six year old...and I struggle with it. Please don't mock. I don't know why this fact is so embarrassing to me, but it is. I seriously left the gym wanting to cry from how embarrassed I was of my bench pressing. I just hate seeming weak in any way, except in this case, I actually am just plain old weak. Boohoohoo. ;( Why is my upper body strength such rubbish? I mean cardio comes easily to me and when it comes to endurance I can endure ten straight minutes wall squating, but ask me to bench press and it's basically like asking a puppy to carry a cow.

Guess what? This whole outfit is from h&m. I'm obviously a little obsessed with that place. If stores could cry, the h&m at The Fashion Place Mall would be crying buckets right now from the fact that I will no longer be gracing it with my paychecks for an entire year. Don't worry h&m, I miss you too. I miss you too. This coat, though, is the first winter coat I've ever bought myself. I picked it up from the kids section at h&m a little before Christmas for $20 and it has served me well! It keeps me warm and I love the fact that it looks a little more put together and blazer-y. This morning I actually did have a harder time thinking of something to wear, probably because I went and bragged about how easy my Closet Challenge had been so far. I probably shouldn't have done that. All I wanted to do this morning was head to a mall and get myself something new. I resisted, though. I actually would have had an easier time getting dressed this morning if I had been able to wear a skirt or a dress, but since I was going to ride the train today I figured it'd be safer if I didn't risk riding public transportation in a skirt. So sad. I hate pants. 

Much love!
