New Years Resolutions

I normally dont make one because I always know I will break it. Well this year I made one and started before the new year. I have given up PEPSI and any other caffeinated beverage. Yes you heard me right and no I am not crazy. (ok maybe just a little) I have been going through the headache withdrawl stuff the last couples days, but I feel like I have more energy. My problem now is to drink more water. I set a goal yesterday to drink 6 glasses of water, I got to 4.5 glasses. Hopefully I can over come that soon too.

The other thing I am going is the walk 14,000 miles and back to iraq with some of my girls from tally. I am soo excited about this. A great way to support Christine as her hubby goes back to iraq and I am hoping to lose tons of weight too :) I stepped on the scale a couple weeks ago and about had a heart attack. So thats what brought on giving up pepsi.

I never really talk about the military aspect of my life, but please keep us in your prayers. My husband only has a little less than 7 months of recruiting left and we are faced with the unknown right now of where we go next. Looks like we wont know till sometime in March. I was hoping for next month, but I know God has a plan. So I am just going to go with the flow. :)

I leave you with some recent work I have done and ofcourse some new photos of Emily. I hoep you all have a fabulous day :)
