a brand spankin new year

BY AYDEN: HI,THIS YEAR I HOPE I WRITE IN MY JORNAL EVERY SINGAL NIGHT THIS YEAR, I ALSO WANT TO READ THE HOLE BOOK OF MORMON, 2010 WAS FUN I COMPLETED SOME OF MY GOALS.

By Cindy: bubye to 2010. not my fave of years i must say. quite a few problems, and pains. some friend drama which = STRESS. one word to sum it up? PAIN

i will say that i have enjoyed my little fam this year. it is the simple things that make life awesome for me...it truly is. i don't have to do something amazing, to FEEL amazing.

this next year i am looking forward to less debt, better health, and a happier ME. yay!!!

This year has been interesting, i wouldn't call it the best year but there has been many things we've done that have been fun. There has been the trip to idaho wich was a big hit in our Baker family. There was Young women's camp. There were the times when i got to see my family, and chill with them. There were some AMAZING things that happened this year. But I'm putting my bread in the toaster and telling you who are reading this, were gonna make this the BEST year EVER. everyone who is reading this I encourage you to try to give a book of mormon to at LEAST one person this year who is :'( inactive :'( . thats all. (bow to the right, bow to the left.) thank you -Tess-
