2017 Highlights & 2018 Goals

Hello everyone! I hope everyone had a safe and happy New Year! 2017 was a big year for me and so I’m actually really excited to start this year with that momentum. Here are a few highlights from 2017:

1. I started Blonde & Caffeinated
2. We got A LOT of wedding planning done!
3. I lost and kept off 10 pounds, the all natural way!
4. I found my wedding dress! I’m going for my fitting soon so stay tuned for a post about that!
5. We took our engagement pictures (my faves can be seen here!)
6. Traveled to NYC and saw Brendon Urie in Kinky Boots!
7. Celebrated six years of dating Ryan!
8. Started my membership at ILKB!
9. We asked all our wedding party to be part of our special day.
10. I brunched…a lot!

Now, onto to 2018. I’m not a big believer in “New Year’s Resolutions” but I do like to try and set goals for myself for the upcoming year. Here are my New Year’s Goals for 2018:

1. Read one book a month
2. Lose at least 5 more pounds before the wedding (June 2018!)
3. Purchase our first house
4. Cook more and try new recipes
5. Continue to make B&C a success!

I’m ready to start 2018 on the right foot. What are your goals for the New Year? Also, any book recommendations please feel free to leave in the comments!
