April 2012 Goals

This month’s list of goals is so encouraging and inspiring to me. 2012 is going to be a big year for the Ray household! I am jumping in the deep-end of a complete lifestyle change : becoming an athlete (distance runner) + changing our eating habits. Look out world – I am going to be grumpy! Ha! Really though, it’s not going to be easy. But it always feels good to do the right thing. To do the hard thing.

The biggest thing that’s happening this month? I am proudly, enthusiastically, and tearfully welcoming my best best friend into our family. Forever. Sam, my closest friend since middle school, is marrying Will’s brother. How fantastic is that? We were best friends in youth group, in high school, and then roommates together in college. The dynamic duo of Samantha Crowder and Nancy Miller are now both going to be Rays for the rest of our lives. I love that. And words can’t even begin to describe how much I love and admire Will’s brother, John. You can bet that I will be a teary mess the weekend of April 21st!

Finally, another exciting change this month is that we will be officially welcoming a Studio Assistant onto our NRP team. I cannot wait to work in tandem with someone in the studio during the week, knocking out the daily tasks that can be overwhelming. We will be a coffee-drinking, music-listening, productive team! And Winston will be there to cheer us along.

So yes, this is a big month. A wonderful month. And I’m ready to watch it all unfold!
