July: Month @ a Glance


Happy July Friends!

I hope you have had a great first half of your week and had a wonderful relaxing weekend! For the 4th of July we spent the day at my in-law's pool enjoying great company and great food.  Exactly how I would have wanted to spend the day! 

Can you believe the month is already half over? Where has the time gone?!

Goals This Month

1. Read {at least} one book.  I finally finished all of the books in The Selection Series, so it is time to move onto something else! I have already started The Last Star by Rick Yancey.  This is the final book in The 5th Wave Series and so far I am really enjoying it! I have also started reading For the Love: Fighting for Grace in a World of Impossible Standards by Jen Hatmaker.  This book was recommended to me at the SMASH 48 Retreat this year, and tonight we are having our first get together to talk about the book! If you are looking for a book that will make you laugh and give you some time with Jesus, I would recommend this one.  


2. Daily Scripture Writing.  I swear my  Erin Condren notebook helped me so much last monght! So this month I am going to continue working on my scriptures.  



3. Fitness Challenges.  Last week I started the Tone It Up Bikini Series with my girlfriends and I have been going strong so far! I also joined a DietBet and have a goal to lose 8 pounds by July 24th.  So far I am down 2 pounds, so I just have to keep the momentum going!





Recap from June

1. Read {at least} One Book.  For May I managed to finish The Heir and The Crown from Kiera Cass.  I had planned to read The Heir, The Crown and What Alice Forgot so I think overall I did okay with only finishing the two books while moving into a new house.  



2. Daily Scripture Writing.  I managed to do all but the last three days of June so I would consider that a big win! I will just plan to make those three days up then continue onto July!


3. Plan a Date with Justin.  I do not believe Justin and I did a one-on-one date with each other in June, but we did do a couple of double dates with some friends! We went to putt putt and froyo with Christina and Ryan and got together with Nick and Kevin.



Question of the Day: What fun things do you have planned in July?

I'd love to hear from you!
