A 2015 Goal…

I have always been a visual goal setter…in faith, at home, for work…I firmly believe that seeing something on paper every day helps me achieve the goals I have set for myself, and for my family.

2015 has been a crazy year at our house…a new job, taking on a leadership role with our church youth group, adjusting to life in a new house, and the addition of sports for my boys. In the thick of all the things life throws your way, I realized I never set my 2015 goals!

Goals aren’t something I just throw together in the heat of the moment…but something I take seriously…mulling over all the many things I have dreamed up in my head until I settle on the things that I feel are most important, and obtainable, for my family and I in terms of faith, finances, our home, and personal growth. 2015 goals are no different (despite being 7 months late), and one of my 2015 goals is a pull over from goals of years past…one of those goals that I never really got around to, despite “starting” it many times throughout the years. That goal is being achieved now, as I write…

A blog! Yep, a blog!

Why a blog, you ask? Good question…the simple answer is that I feel like I fit the mold of the bloggers that I, myself, enjoy and that I can bring some of my crazy life to the table for others to enjoy in return. Mom, wife, and lover of Christ- check. DIY junkie- check. Lover of food and cooking- check. Chronic home remodeler- check. Devourer of books- check. Traveller- check (when finances can afford, that is). Pinterest addict- check. And the list goes on…

Anyway, whether Living Swagger is followed by one person, or by hundreds, it is a goal…and one I am FINALLY checking off my list! I hope you enjoy, and I hope you see your goals come true for 2015 too!
