It’s time to join up with Miss Kindergarten, A Teeny Tiny Teacher and Dragonflies in First for their Thirteen in ’13 Linky Party!
I’m at my best when I’m comfy and cozy. Therefore jeans and a hoodie would have to be my favorite!
Since we canceled our Netflix account, I’ve only watched TV movies. I just finished reading The Book Thief and I heard the movie is out in theaters. Anyone see it?
How I Met Your Mother has been my favorite since episode 1. I can’t believe we’re in the home stretch now. Luckily Modern Family is still on and keeps me entertained each week. I love that both are in syndication so I can watch re-runs on weekends and school breaks.
My favorite local restaurant is Silver City Brewery. My favorite national chain is Red Robin (Yum).
I’m a little late to the party, but I have arrived. This year I bought my first two pairs of TOMS and started wearing tall boots.
I am blessed with a wonderful family and fantastic friends. I could never choose which gift was my favorite.
I have loved everything I’ve pinned to my Future Craft Room board. This has been a vision years in the making and I’m so excited to start making it a reality. We will be building a new house next year and I get my own craft room/office. It’s gotten to the point where I’ve had very vivid dreams of what the room will look like. Last night’s dream had the room painted a medium to deep gray on the walls. There were white built-ins on the walls. There were light gray and yellow accents everywhere. I think it was in honor of my alma mater since I haven’t thought of decorating with yellow at all.
I reached brand new milestones this year in my Teachers Pay Teachers adventure. I have set small goals and each time I meet one of those goals, I aim just a bit higher. I had one goal in mind to reach by the end of 2013. I am super close, but I know that if I don’t reach it in the next couple of days I’ll reach it soon in 2014.
We bought land this year & as I mentioned earlier, will be building this coming year. It has incredible mountain views and I cannot wait!
My little Cinderella.
Balance
I’ve said it before and I will say it again until I feel like I have it. I need more balance. Life can pull me in so many different directions. I feel obligated to give and give and give until I realize I don’t really have anything left to give. Instead, I’m taking away from something else that is a bigger priority. I’m a work in progress.
Thankful

You stole my answer for number one…must be a Pacific Northwest thing! Beautiful picture of the mountain.

Your property is amazing! I'm about 5 years from retiring and we're beginning our search. We live right outside a national park but we're headed somewhere else!! Silly, huh? I'm with you on comfy and cozy-jeans and a sweatshirt are perfect!
Loving the view of where you'll be building! Congrats on reaching your TPT goals!
Happy New Year!
