Happy New Year!

This year I decided to change my New Year's resolution. Instead of having one or two resolutions, I would do 25! So after much thought on what I would like to change over the next year, here are my 25!
1. Lose 15 lbs, 10 of which by summer
2. Run the St. Louis half marathon in under 2 1/2 hours.
3. Oraganize the kids playroom
4. Put an extra $5000 into savings on top of our normal amount.
5. Double what we put into our Roth IRA
6. Attend Church every Sunday
7. Become more frugal with our money
8. Finish making over Adriana's room (she wants her room like Kit's from American Girl books)
9. Redo Andrew's room and put a big bed in his room (he is still in a toddler bed)
10. Redo Joey's room
11. Organize the storage room
12. Lose 50lbs of clutter from the house
13. Spend more time with my friends
14. Teach Andrew to swim this summer
15. Help family to all start eating healthier
16. Plant a garden with the kids this summer
17. Finish the landscaping
18. Get kids to eat more vegetables
19. Stain fence, deck, and swingset by summer
20. Get kids more involved with charities
21. Volunteer more at Church
22. Give up sweets again for Lent
23. Have more date nights with my husband
24. Learn how to use my sewing machine and set up an area for it
25. Spend more one on one time with each of the kids
So there it is, my New Year's resolution! I'm going to look back at it in July and see how much I accomplished then again next New Year's.
I hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year's and I can't wait to see what the new year will bring to us!
