New Year Resolutions

As the new year begins Michael & I are really excited for everything that lays ahead of us this year. Michael is on track to graduate with his bachelors degree in Business Management this fall and we are both so excited for him to start his career with a new company. Normally the change from one year to another doesn't really phase me all that much, but for some reason this year feels different. I am so excited for this year and for all that it has to offer. I know that this is going to be an amazing year for us.
We decided on 3 new year resolutions that we can work on together. The first is to become more financially responsible and prepare financially for our future family. The second is to get healthy and shed the unwanted pounds we have both been packing around for much too long. And the third is to attend the temple at least once a month. We were married in the temple almost 3.5 years ago and it seems that as time goes by and we get busy with school and work our daily lives the temple seems to fade into the background and we have been missing out on the blessings that come from regular attendance.
So there you have it! There are many many many more things I want to work on this year as I strive to become a better person, but I don't want to set myself up for failure with too many things to work on. I think that these three things will be our yearly goals to work on together but I also plan on setting monthly goals just to give myself something to work on and feel good about.
We are so excited about 2011 and the changes that lay ahead of us and we hope that as the year unfolds we are able to achieve our goals and work towards a better life together. We wish all of you a happy and healthy 2011 and we hope that you have an amazing year too! :)
