Weekly Menu Plan for December 30, 2018 - January 5, 2019

Here I am, sitting face to face with the end of the year, surprised once again that it went so fast.  I look back, and think of all the things that happened in 2018.  So many memories.  But then I look ahead....and cannot wait to see what God has planned for us all in 2019!  A new year is such a blessing!

I love the fresh start of a new year!  I have learned, though, to not get too caught up in the resolutions or in the expectation that I am going to completely overhaul myself in the new year.  I like to make resolutions that focus on making me a better servant, a better Christian, a better wife/mother/grandma/.  For me, I think the "I'm going to lose weight this year" ship has sailed.
Faith-based resolutions are most important to me.

That being said, I am also going to TRY and do a better job of taking pictures and sharing recipes and other goodies on this blog!  There are so many wonderful blogs out there, and they far exceed my amateur attempts, but I still enjoy sharing and hope at least somebody gets something they can use from it!

So, here is the final menu for December and the first menu for 2019, combined!
