Good morning! Well, we’re three days
into this month, and this is the first chance I’ve had to share with you the
dreams and goals I’ve made to close out this year!
ONE. Mail our
Christmas cards and letters. Normally this is
already done by now, but we’re running a little behind (with a reason!) this
year, so I need to finish that project ASAP. I’m so looking forward to
Christmas card season in general – sending and receiving. It’s one of my very
favorite things.
TWO. Enjoy some fun
Christmas activities! Our county is having a
Christkindlmarkt this year that I want to attend, we’re going to a play, Swiss
Village has a Christmas Tree event, and of course, there are lights to drive by
and church services to attend. I’m looking forward to celebrating in and out of
our home.
THREE. Settle my heart
for Advent. I’m reading a small
handful of Advent studies/guides/devotional books this year and am excited to
have those stolen-away moments with the Lord. No matter how well you know the
accounts in the Bible, there is always something new to see or learn as you
study, and I am looking forward to that being true for me this year.
FOUR. Look ahead to
2025. I’m a dreamer and planner and want
to spend some good time this month reflecting on the unexpected that has filled
this year and look ahead some goals for the year to come. This is always one of
my favorite parts of any year.
FIVE. Work on our
anniversary photo album. I always like to start
on photo albums as quickly as I can after an event happens – so I remember
details while they are fresh in my mind. I want to put some creative time into
working on our album from this 12th anniversary!
The
holidays are, of course, busy, so I don’t want to overload with dreams and
goals. We’ll stop the list here and while I’m sure more will actually take
place, this will be a good ending point to the purposeful plans.
How
about you? What are YOU looking forward to this month?

Good morning! Just wanted to stop and say thank you for posting to your blog every day! I miss the days of blogs and I love sitting down with a cup of coffee and reading your updates, etc. each day.
Oh Karen, thank you for the kind words! I am grateful for the old school bloggers that continue to write, and I'm grateful you choose to spend some time in this corner of the internet world each day! Thank you! - Bekah
Sounds like an exciting December is shaping up with these goals!
