New Years Resolutions

We have never done Resolutions. This is the first year.
We sat down as a family and talked about what it means to have have a goal and that it should be something that makes you a better person.

Gabes:
~Be funnier (can that be possible?)
~Have the whole family be together more
~Make the earth healthy and clean

Nolans: (Me James and Gabe thought of these for him)
~Be potty trained
~sleep in a big boy bed
~Give up the binkies
~~ and after all that Nolan piped in and said "And HULK SMASH!"

Mine and James' are more personal.....lose weight, go to the temple more, yada yada yada

Altogether as a family:
~Leave the TV off more
~Read the scriptures every night TOGETHER
I love this picture

Nolan's goals are too cute! Maybe he would add "eat more candy" or something like that!?! ;)

That is a great picture. If you took a pic of our scripture study it would be two kids not paying attention and sprawled all over the floor.
