what i'm reading...december edition

well, really I have only been rockin' and rollin' on my Bible reading.  I finished up Jeremiah. And Lamentations, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai and Zechariah.

So now, with only a couple weeks left of 2012, I only have Matthew, Mark, and Luke to go!  I feel very accomplished that I finally read the entire Old Testament.  To be honest, it's kind of hard to get through but I did it!

I entered into this Read Through the Bible plan through a group on Facebook.  I am so glad that I decided I would do this over 2012.  It has helped me develop a habit of getting up every morning to spend time in God's Word!  

In 2013, I hope to read through the Bible chronologically.  I found a plan on YouVersion that will be leading me.  If you would like to follow along, click here.

I'm also going to be participating in the 2013 Siesta Scripture Memory Team with Living Proof Live and Beth Moore!  For more information on this, click here.  

What I'm reading turned into a goal/activity list for 2013...what can I say, I get distracted!

Merry Christmas!

so what in the world has happened??

Apparently, I fell off the face of the planet.  Since March, I have:::
- Had my one year anniversary.
- conducted 2 Easter egg hunts
- threw 4 end of the school year parties
- ran a MEGA Sports Camp for 75 children.
- summer camp
- left my job
- spent LOTS of time at home doing "projects" - like repainting our bedroom, redoing an antique buffet, organizing lots of things, etc.
- did a terrible job at keeping our garden growing and productive
- went to the cabin a.k.a. my happy place - we tubed down a river, played mini golf, mined for gems, panned for gold, enjoyed some down time
- watch my husband work his butt off this summer
- had my in-laws visit.
- got a new job!
- joined a small group at church
- had some friends visit from Arizona
- head back to the cabin after buying a new to us truck
- redid our bathroom

All in all, it's been a good year.  Definitely a challenging one but a good one none the less.
Here's to actually being a good blogger.
