5 on Friday

1. The new year means it is time for a new planner. This going to make me so uncool, but I am going back to a regular boring weekly/monthly planner instead of ordering another Erin Condren one. I just like how flat and simple this calendar is. It isn't nearly as pretty, but I found myself missing it over the last 18 months when I used my Erin Condren one.

2. Resolutions- I am not much of a resolution maker but I am going to do my best to cut out sugar again. I started to cut it out in October but fell off the wagon at Thanksgiving. After about a week of giving it up, I didn't even crave sweets anymore and when I ate something sweet, it was only a bite that I didn't enjoy like I previously did. Last week, we lost a family friend way too early and it has made me re-evaluate my health and what I put into my body.

3. In our new house, the boys are going to share a room. We debated over this for a few reasons: 1. we have the space for them to each have their own room and 2. They wake each other up super early, so that means a lot of early mornings for us. 

It basically came down to the fact that I shared a room growing up, and I think that it is good for kids to have that experience. Also, since they will now be one floor up, I like the idea of them being together. I have been planning out what we will do decor wise, and I think it will be something similar to this... Except no bunk beds. Archer is a dare devil and would break his neck.

4. I can't get this image out of my mind. I keep thinking it would be so easy to make a clutch like this! Maybe I will try my hand at a little DIY soon. My list of projects is growing by the day.

5. And speaking of projects, I want to include fun artwork in the boy's playroom. I think something including our dogs would be really fun.
