October 2018 Goals

Guys. New things are coming!!

Right now, I am currently 6 week out from maternity leave, and 9 weeks out from having a baby. I have been praying so much about what to say yes to and what to say no to during these last weeks of work, of 2018, of being a mama of two.

I’m feeling strongly that God is wanting me to say yes to some business things that have been on my heart for a long, long time. I’ll be announcing them in the next couple of weeks, and if you want to be the first to know about them, be sure to sign up for my email list in the side bar of the blog!

This is your reminder that when God says YES to something in your heart, that He will give you everything you need to accomplish that thing. Even when everyone else says no. He is so good, friends.

And with that, here are my October goals!

  • Read the Bait of Satan with the Nancy Ray Book Club

  • Take Milly and Lyndon to the Farmer’s Market : Pumpkin and Apples!

  • Finish designing 2017 Family Yearbook

  • NC State Fair Family trip

  • Get a massage

  • Launch something new and exciting (!!)

  • Buy Crib and set it up

  • Photos in Lyndon’s baby book

September 2018 Goals

As you read these words, I’m currently in Italy!!! (Be sure to follow along on Instagram!) We have been dreaming, saving, and planning to go to Europe as a couple to celebrate 10 years of marriage for years now. While of course it was heartbreaking to say goodbye to our little ladies for 10 days, I am so grateful for adventures with just me and my guy.

Every 5 years, we do something big to celebrate our marriage and life together. For our 5th anniversary, we went to the BVI and lived on a boat by ourselves for a week! It was the craziest trip of our lives and so much fun. For our 10th, we are exploring Italy together and photographing our first international wedding. We are so grateful!

In addition to being gone for 10 days this month in Europe, we’ll also be traveling with Will’s family, and I’ll be speaking at my favorite conference.

Basically, September = travel, speaking, adventure, and a whole lot of suitcase living. With that in mind, I’m keeping my goals simple as can be!

September Goals

  • 10 Year Anniversary Trip to Italy

  • Ray Fam vacation out West (Zion National Park, Grand Canyon, etc)

  • Speak at Making Things Happen

  • Read Walden (I’ve always wanted to read this but never have!)

August 2018 Goals

Hi, I’m Nancy!

I am 31 years old. I have a wonderful husband, 2 precious girls and another little girl on the way. I just moved into a renovated home after almost 9 years of living in a townhouse. I started a photography business 10 years ago, and I currently work 3 days a week alongside an incredible team of women whom I adore. I love Jesus. He is my everything.

Sometimes I feel like it’s good to just write out the big, bird’s-eye view of your life. Who am I? Where am I today? What are the things most important to me? Who am I surrounded by? What really matters?

In light of THOSE things, let’s write out our goals. Year by year, month by month, day by day. Let’s commit to love those closest to us as best we can (for me, it’s my family and my team), let’s commit to doing GOOD work for the kingdom, and let’s take care of ourselves along the way.

Here are my August Goals!
