Five on Friday: Reasons this weekend is going to ROCK

FoF - Weekend

 

1. Czech Heritage Celebration!  My heritage is part Czech, and its a fact I am super proud of sharing. This Saturday is a Czech Heritage Celebration, and I’m actually in Texas and able to go! A bonus is the car show in which my brother and nephew are entering their Mustang. I’m headed out to take lots of pictures… of the car and all the fun!

2. 74th Annual Celebration of the Madisonville Sidewalk Cattlemen’s Association. I don’t know much about this other than the fact that my husband is playing at it and I get to go. And I’ll be selling merch at it! Should be far less stressful of a Saturday night than slinging beer… right?

3. I’m in Texas. Seriously. This alone is reason to say my weekend will ROCK.

4. Barbecue! I’m headed out this evening to take photos of my cousin’s family barbecue restaurant. Good Texas barbecue served family style. YUM YUM YUM.

5. Family time. We’re going to do an early Mother’s Day, and I get to see my niece and nephew play in their Spring Concert on Monday night. Family is always the BEST, and I feel so blessed to get to spend this time with them.

Five on Friday: Goals for May

FoF - Goals for May

1. Start the 100 Happy Days challenge on Instagram. I’ve been wanting to do this for awhile now, and I decided May 1st would be a great start date. It’ll run all summer this way. I have a feeling summer is going to be a busy season of change, and there will be stressful days that I will NEED this challenge.

2. Implement better eating habits. I’ve never ordered a “diet” book and followed it before. But the new book by Travis Stork of The Doctors has caught my attention. I’ve ordered it and plan to start following it this next month. Care to join me? The Doctor’s Diet: Dr. Travis Stork’s STAT Program to Help You Lose Weight & Restore Your Health

3. House shop. We really want to buy a house. I’ve been completely happy in our rental home for the last two and a half years. I’m STILL happy in it. But the small size of the house has reared its head time and time again lately. I have no idea if we can even get approved for a home loan, and even if we can if it would be enough to get into a house we’d be happy to live in… but we’re going to start the process! Prayers welcome. LOL

4. Photography business full swing. I will get my website up and a Facebook page started for my photography in May. It’s going to happen. It has to happen. I did a photoshoot yesterday, and I have another one on Sunday. I’m so in love with photography and its time it get even more of my focus.

5. Keep chipping away at my new years goals! I’ve been doing okay on them, and I can’t stop now!

Update! For Lent this year, I had the goal of doing a photo a day. I’m taking a break from doing a Project 365 this year, but I had missed taking a daily photo. So I figured the season of Lent was a great time to take it back up temporarily.

Here is the result of that Lent 2014 Photo-A-Day project:
