this is what happens when you bring a&e to sephora.


they get lost while mommy's talking to the sales lady
& do a lil' testing of their own.


can you say swine flu? not funny.



what's funny is they know exactly where to put the stuff, just a lil' off :)



perfection!

and now onto much bigger things. ehem. my new years resolutions. i'd like to call them 10 goals & dreams for twenty10. inspired by mtv's new show the buried life. [If you had one day left to live what would you do? Ride a bull? Throw a legendary party for everyone you love? Vegas? Now if you had your whole life to live, would you lose that drive, or would your list just keep getting longer?] starts jan 18th. happy dance!!

i'd like to grow this list to 30 or so, but i'll do that on my own. i won't bore the life out of you. plus, then you'll hafta hold me accountable. & that's never fun. :) drum roll please!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. clean out my closet. stick to the rules. if i haven't worn it in a year, i won't be wearing it again, right? good will is my friend. good will is my friend.

2. read through matthew, mark, luke & john. i want to love people well. & there's no better refresh then to read about how Jesus did just that.

3. cook more dinners from scratch. which starts with eating home more. i'll say 2-3 dinners a week. julie & julia is to blame for this one.

4. kick my sleeping pill habit. homie say what? what. last night was one of my first nights without one in a long time, & guess what dad? i slept!

5. take a road trip to bakersfield to meet all my blog friends! hi lorie! hi davi! hi talia! hi olive oyl!! :) i'm coming to see you in 2010 whether you like it or not!

6. stop eating so much processed food (well, i hafta eat a few things in moderation or this'll never come true). this will be painful & slow. no more fruit roll-ups? no more cheez whiz? you can do this, molly. you can do this.

7. as my mom always says, quit sweating the small stuff. so what if a&e smeared make-up all over their face at sephora? it happened. & it was kinda funny. i need to get better at this. life's too dang short.

8. get involved somewhere at church. i haven't narrowed it down yet, but i want/need to serve somewhere. too many excuses for too long. i think i can. i think i can. whoo! whoo!

9. learn to knit. get my craft on.(karis bought me my first needles guys!) i read all the blogs. i know all the lingo. okay, i lied. but by the end of this year i'm gonna know what the heck casting on is & how to purl 2 together through the back loop (see, i sound cool already)!

10. learn to play the piano again. i'd like to add guitar to this one too, but i might be pushing my luck. i want to sing more. & write more songs. & play the piano like karis while i sing :) hi karis! i just inherited my ganny's piano, so i have no more excuses!

um, you are going to come meet me in Bako, too, right?! :(

I got this awesome program that gives you DETAILED recipes and your SHOPPING LIST for 5 homecooked meals a week. It only costs $15 every three months. Bought my first weeks' food today... hope it works! :)

OMIGOSHOMIGOSHOMIGOSH I'VE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED TO MAKE IT ON SOMEONES LIST. seriously. name the date and time and I'll be there. or wait, YOU'LL be here. but you know what I mean.

I've been mulling over some goals of mine too...and this just inspired me to actually put them out there. you know, for some accountability =)

these pictures may very well be some of the funniest ever. Oh mygoodness, those girls of yours!! You're such a good mommy, taking it all in stride. These are the moments! :)

You are a very lovely person, and I just love all of your resolutions (so many of mine are actually the same). I'm especially happy (ok, who am I kidding, GIDDY is more the word) about number 5!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! I can't WAIT. :)

Love your twenty10 list. I need to do one myself. Reading yours has inspired me greatly!!!
Some of our goals are quite similar. I am gradually easing my way into eating "clean" - which means no processed anything. (Except on a once-a-week cheat day.) If you go to my blog roll, and read my friend Shannon Q's blog...she is my hero & I'm learning so much from her.

Whoa Dawna! This was long. Sorry!
Good luck on 2010!!!
