Happy (Almost) New Year!

Hi everyone!  I'm sorry I missed Faithful Fridays yesterday...time really just slipped away!  But, I will be posting my Faithful Fridays post sometime this week hopefully.

So, it's almost 2012!  Rachel over at Rachel's Blog gave me the idea of listing the "important" things I had done in 2011 and the things I hope to do in 2012. 

So, in 2011 I/we:

• Volunteered at our local nursing home's Christmas party--so fun!
• Got back on the Faithful Fridays horse.  :)
• Spent Labor Day with friends from China (Mr. Chuck and Ms. Kim).
• Began reading my Bible and doing devotions more often/everyday.
• Got on Pinterest.
• Stopped drinking so much carbinated drinks (that's something I feel proud of).
• Learned to knit (partially, anyway).
• Got an iPad.
• Started listening to mainly/only Christian music.
• Started on a book that I have a passion for.
• Started the Anne of Green Gables book series.

And in 2012 I want to:

• Witness more.
• Go on a mission trip to China.
• Read my Bible and/or read a devotional every day.
• Write in my journal every day or every other day, even if it's only a few lines
• Continue volunteering at our local nursing home.
• Pray more.
• Keep working on my book.
• Finish the Green Gables series.
• Be nicer to people that I don't particularly "like".
• Be nicer to people period (Take up Operation NiCE--click HERE).
• Continue to blog 2-4 times a week.
• Spend more time with my family, especially Luke.
• Keep my advocacy website up and running.

So what about you?  What are some things you have done/hope to do?

Have a Blessed and Happy New Year!  God bless you!
