New Year, New Resolutions

Every year, people start anew with resolutions to lose weight, exercise, eat better, etc.  I think that most people should just strive to be the healthiest person they can be, no matter what time of year it is, beginning or end.  With that said, I have made a couple snon-fitness resolutions, since I exercise frequently anyway.

#1 Be more adventurous in my cooking.   I used to cook a lot before baby was born, and it's much more difficult to do that now, especially with working full time.  I would like to get back into it though.

#2  Learn to crochet.  I've always admired people who can make cute hats/scarves, and I want to try my hand at it.  

Advent Calendar

I made a cute advent calendar for Jensen.  It took FOREVER to sew it together, but I love it, and the patterns I chose for the fabric.  He loved putting it together this year also.
