Goodbye January, hello February!

Happy February, y'all!  I didn't get a chance to blog too much last month since it was a busy month, but wanted to share January's completed goals as well as February's goals. And I am going to toot my own horn for just a second and say that January was the first time in the past 12 months of having monthly goals that I completed every single goal! It felt awesome to slowly cross off each one and realize I did everything I hoped I would for the month! Let's see if I can ride that same wave through February!
