Faith Printable

 As I was studying the story of Sarah this week I was reminded of this quote by Neal A. Maxwell, "Faith in God includes faith in his timing." It seemed so fitting. I can't imagine the challenge it must have been to continue to have faith and hope for a child as the years went on. It must have seemed impossible but she continued on in faith. She is a remarkable example.

Staycation Printables

Following a busy winter break traveling to meet family, you may find yourself so exhausted you need a vacation from your vacation! However, for most of us, taking time away every time you want it isn’t always possible. Thankfully, you can still have the rejuvenating experience of vacation without needing to go very far...maybe you don't even leave home. Next time you’re craving a trip, try taking a staycation instead. Plan a weekend in your city exploring sites and stops that you’ve never seen before. Or, spend a weekend in with a few at-home spa days and movies in the living room. You don’t have to spend a ton to unwind and reconnect with your family. 

This is a busy time of year for our family and its impossible to get away with my husbands job.  A staycation is the perfect compromise for our family for our winter and spring break fun.  Have you ever tried a staycation? I love some ideas!!!

Mint created a set of really cute printables to make planning and enjoying your staycation as easy as possible. Create a trip itinerary with their planning template and keep your budget in check with their budget tracker. I perfsonally love their printables that turn your home into a hotel with interactive menus to experience the luxury of room service. I know my kids will loved this!. You don’t have to go to a new city to treat yourself and your family to foods you don’t normally eat! Are there some restaurants close by that you've been dying to try?

No matter what’s available in your area or what you plan for your staycation, the best part of your time is sure to be bonding with your family. A purposeful stay in town is a great way to carve out time together. Check out all the printables to get the most out of your rejuvenating staycation.  

2020 Goal Trackers

I love the new year.  Its a fresh start.  A time to reflect and improve.  I really love setting goals.  I'm not so great at accomplishing those goals and should probably not mention that I have had the same goals for the last 5 years-maybe some of you can relate haha.  Maybe this will be my year :)  For me the benefit of a goal is the process and the small changes that happen as I work towards each goal.  This year I have some pretty big goals in mind and I can't wait to see where they take me.  Its always a good idea to write your goals down.  Be specific and try and make it something you can measure.  I created a few free printables to help you keep track of your goals.

First are these gorgeous goal sheets where you can record your goals.  They are pretty enough to hang where you can see them daily.

Next is a daily tracker.  This may not work for all goals but it really helps to track your progress.  Also great for developing or breaking habits.  Maybe your goal is to workout for 20 minutes a day.  You may miss a few here or there BUT with this tracker you can see how many days you actually did work towards your goal.  This is also a great way to break down some of those bigger goals you may have.  Lets use getting into shape as an example (seems to be a common one) you may have your daily workout as one goal, drinking water as a goal, eating veggies daily, etc.  Do what works for you.

This next goal tracker goes with the new youth program.  They are asked to choose goals from the following areas. I have two daughters that are now in Young Womens and I'm over the younger girls (7-11 year olds) so I plan to join in and create goals based on these four areas as well.  There are several designs to choose from and if you need additional ones please let me know :)

I would love to know what some of your goals are for the year.  Do you set New Years Resolutions?  Do you pick one word for the year or do you set regular goals?  

Happy New Year!

Free Spider Shapes File Folder Game

I have a fun Freebie for you just in time for Halloween.  

Practice shapes with this adorable spider themed match game.  You can glue the two pages to a file folder or use as is (that's what I do). Print the two pages full of webs and the page of spiders.  I recommend cardstock and laminate if possible.  Cut out the spiders and you are ready to go.  Help the shape spiders find their matching webs.  You can also add Velcro or magnets so your pieces don't slide.
