Friday Love no. 1

As a 90's girl, the recent release of the Fuller House photos left me giddy. I loved Full House growing up, heck, I still love it. Fuller House is set to premier on Netflix, Febuary 26th. Instead a Danny with a house full of three daughters, Fuller House stars D.J. as a mom of three boys. Everyone came back for the new series except for Michelle, played by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.

Hutt just came back from a camping trip at Big Bend National Park with his dad, uncle, and cousins. After looking through his pictures on Monday, I felt the need to plan a trip for us to go back. So much beautiful scenary.

Love this article about what a Proverbs 31 woman looks like today.

Chip and Joanna Gaines from "Fixer Upper" announced on Wednesday that they are releasing their book, The Magnolia Story, this Fall. It is a story of their relationship and the beginnings of all their success. I will definitely be ordering this book when pre-sale becomes available. I also applied to be on the "Street Team". Check it out!

I made these sugar cookies yesterday and they did not disappoint. Hubby agreed. :)

2016

2016 Goals

-prayer

I have noticed that I have become easily anxious and worrisome throughout the last year. I believe that prayer and trust will lead me through those times. I am working through the Val Marie prayer journal ,which I love! 

-pay it forward

I have really felt the need to be more generous with my time and money. I decided to do a activity every month to pay it forward. I really want to encourage others to pay it forward. You never know how something so little can be just what someone needs in that moment. It is also so rewarding to do these random acts of kindness. I plan to blog my monthly RAOK as I go.

-focus
I have always had a lot of interests and hobbies but I am really trying to narrow down my passion and focus. This is partly for the blog but also for my life.

-health
I am really going to try and make some healthy recipes and make them staples in the Hutson Home. We recently made spaghetti squash and loved it. Then the holidays happened and we haven't been back in our routine. I am so looking forward to a routine.

-declutter
It still amazes me that we have 2 people living in a 4 bedroom house and it is almost full. When we moved into our house I really wanted to go through everything but with the timing of the move and that fact that I was working out of town at the time it just didn't happen. I recently posted about the 2016 in 2016 challenge. This is will be my inspiration to keep going through out the year.
