Happy New Year!

So I have never been a big fan of New Years resolutions, but last night me and Justin were talking and he asked me what my goals are for this year, I couldn't really think of anything and justin wasn't too impressed so I have been thinking all day about what I want to accomplish this year and I came up with a few things.
1- finish house projects (put in yard and deck, clean basement, finish basement, organize my food storage)
2- Add more to my food storage and learn to cook with what i store
3- Smile more and get mad less
4- Give as much as I can to my church calling
5- Read scriptures with the kids more
6- Make dinner time more special for my family, by eating together at the table, and eating healthy home-cooked meals
7- Work out more(which should be easy to do since I can count on one hand the number of times i actually made it to aerobics)
8- Cut down my ice cream intake to only one half gallon per week (I doubt this one will happen but i can act like i am trying)
9- Work less and play more!!

Hopefully I can accomplish most of these this year, Justin's goals consisted of working out more and buying a motorcycle and I am sure that he will have no problem doing both of those!

Add "visit your favorite sister" to the list. Good Luck with the goals, I want updates every three months!! :)

Chocolate is not mentioned, so you can eat as much chocolate as you want? how about soda pop? (both of these are weaknesses of mine..) :) i.e., dr pepper I love, I hate the other ones

hey that is a great list of goals, I haven't been one much on making a list of goals either it sounds like a good idea. Actually I think I like your list. So I will take your list and see if I can get it done

cutting back on chocolate and pop isn't an option.

I like those resolutions. If only I were as good as you to actually write something down!

We also made our list a few days ago. I tried to keep it simple so we weren't to overwhelmed, but it is hard when you wan to get so much done!
Julianne, Don't cut back on ice Cream, that's to depressing.. just work out more:)
