It's 2012!! What a fantastic beginning! Last year brought Ben and I so many wonderful memories and growth, and I'm so excited to see all that God has planned for 2012. With getting married, graduating from med school, moving, and starting residency, this year is already shaping up to be huge! We spent the past few days working on our goals and intentions for the new year. More than resolutions, these exercises have been a good way to start molding our attitudes and will help us make lasting, positive change in our lives. One of the things we did this year was make a vision board. I'd never done this before, so it was kind of interesting. I just found pictures and words in magazines that represent my goals and expectations for this year and ripped them out (kind of therapeutic!!). We then glued all of those things to a piece of foam board and set them in a prominent place. I would encourage everyone to make a vision board this year. I had so much fun making mine and I already feel more motivated and focused!
Before toasting in the new year with some of Ben's family's friends, we spent the first part of NYE night babysitting Ben's nephews. Since our photographer is in Austin and we needed to crank out some Save the Dates, Ben's sister Alli agreed to take some photos of us while we were over at her house. Some of my favorites of the shoot are below! Now I'm even more excited to have our "official" engagement photo shoot!
In wedding news, we have set our date for May 12, 2012 at the Rancho Mirando in Fischer, TX (by Wimberley, south of Austin). It's a BEAUTIFUL ranch with gorgeous views of the Texas Hill Country. The whole place just screams "fun" and has an eclectic, understated elegance to it...and there are peacocks! SCORE! The website is ranchomirando.com if anyone wants to check it out! Please mark May 12 on your calendars - we would LOVE to have you there!
Welcome 2012!! May God's blessings fall on us with abundance!
The future Mrs./Dr. Lawson :-)
