Here's to 2016...

 
2016 is here, ready or not!
I have never really been one to make resolutions with the start of a new year.  I like schedules and live by my calendars (meal calendar, chore charts, lesson plans and daily calendar with the kid's activities) but I know that everything is fluid and changes much more than it stays the same.  Resolutions have always been something that I knew I would probably never keep so I guess that is why I never made them. 
 
 
This year... 
 
Instead of resolutions I am going to have goals for myself.  I will check in monthly to see how I am doing and keep up with my progress that way. 
 
This year I will...
Quit drinking cokes
Start running & working out
(at least 4 times per week with Brogan)
Honor my husband
(I tend to be just a little bossy and like things my way,
I'll admit it)
Grow in my walk with Christ
(Spend more time in prayer)
Spend more quality time with my kids
(Not just running to events and less computer time for me)
Make breakfast for my kids
(At least 3 times per week, I need to be realistic!)
Learn to knit
Raise our level of self reliability
(Start back my garden, continue the rabbits, get chickens and maybe a pig and some goats if I can sweet talk Jeremy!)
Visit my Bible daily
(365 day reading plan)
Save more money
($5 bill challenge!)
Have a monthly date night
(Even if it is to the grocery store!)
Do Better At keeping up this blog
(Post at least twice a month)
My Wildest Dream for 2016 
is to pay off our car and house
(Anyone have any extra $$$$ laying around?)
Claiming Ephesians 3:20 on this one!!
 
 
Each year I try to come up with a word for the upcoming year but for 2016 I decided on a verse... 
 
 
 
 
With that...
 
 
Praying many blessings over you and your family in 2016!!!
