I don't like to use the word, "resolutions".
I feel like this word can be cliché and sounds a bit intimidating and demanding.
We all have goals though, and what better time to make a plan for achieving them than in the start of a new year?? ;-)

Here are some of mine:
1) Simplify my weekends and my life by spending more time in town. (Don't get me wrong...I love to travel, but I've been on the road so much in the last year!)
2) Continue to work on me and Nel's Traveling Teddy project, and submit to more children's literary agents. (See our previous post for more information.)
3) Last, but certainly not least, walk down the aisle and marry the love of my life!
4) Oh...and I mustn't forget...work on looking amazing in my wedding dress. ;-)
What do you have planned for the new year?

That's great
Admire your list but I never make resolutions then I don't have to feel guilty when I break them.
Jess, I have no doubt that you are going to look gorgeous in your wedding dress. :) I am hoping to lose some weight, get more exercise...you know something other than housework. LOL. Hello to your sweet mom , blessings to all, xoxo,Love Susie
What a wonderful year you are going to have! Getting married is one of life's greatest joys! I think it's good to plan for things we wish for our lives, but I'm not a resolution gal....just a planner. Have a lovely day. ♥
I don't do resolutions - I call mine goals. I usually don't complete all of them, but try. I try to make a list of goals the first of every month and just work month by month.
Congratulations on your wedding plans. I'm sure you will be a gorgeous bride.

I think your 2016 will be filled with enchantment and all your goals will be met. Have fun with all your plans.

Dear Jess and company, I think to always have goals is so much better than trying to start any. Just live as a goal-oriented soul! YEP, today I am HOME. We stayed home yesterday with the exception of going out in the freezing cold to get groceries, together. But today we are enjoying the silence of home over tea, books and each others' laughter. ENJOY working toward the childrens' book venue! Anita
Goals are a great word. We are on a diet again. When we will learn? It's been cold here, no snow as of yet. I am missing those lovely pots of soup. Next moth, we shall be off the diet. I am loving the silence as well and the clean slate we have after Christmas. Happy Sunday. xo
No resolutions for me, just a few 'promises'. I'm going to start a "personal journey" journal starting on Feb 1st (my birthday) and see where it takes me :)
Hi Jess,
I see nothing but bliss this year for you... Wishing you the best with all your dreams, wishes and goals..
A warm hello to your mom.
fondly,
Penny

Wonderful things to look forward to and a good guideline for improving the quality of your life in the coming year. My goal this year is to get outside in the garden more, for exercise and fresh air, and of course, beautiful flowers! All the best to you in this exciting new year, Jess! xo Karen

I like your resolutions. I must say I don't plan ahead nothing. I just go with the surf and then I marvel for what I achieve without expecting or planning and put on hold what might have been but isn't quie.
Love the pictures in your post. 2016 Starts with a Bang for Red Rose Alley and all of you.
Take Care of yourself, Pretty Girl!
Love,

Dear Sheri,
Thank you so much for wandering over to meet Lollipop! She was such a joy to work on.. I still have that song in my head.. haaa. Yes, I believe it was in the 50's.. I too, love the era.
Have a great week.
fondly,
Penny
Hello Jess....Oh, what an exciting year you are going to have! I'm so happy for you.
Sheri, thanks so much for your kind visits and comments. Love them. I'm always so happy when I see you have stopped by. Hugs to all! Susan
No resolutions here. Actually I've never made such.
Yours sound wonderful. Especially the marry one.
But please.
Don't bother your pretty head about "working" on looking amazing, in your wedding dress. All brides look amazing.
And anyway....
He fell in love with _you_. Why ever should you "work" on changing anything?
Hi Jess, may all your dreams come true. Your plans are incredible and I know you will be stunning on your wedding day. Happy year one day at a time!!
Hi Sheri, wishing you a beautiful week sweet friend. xo
2016 is just going to be a brilliant year for you ... what a fabulous photo of the two of you, love the way the sun appears to!
All the best Jan
