Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone! We didn't do anything big last night to celebrate. The kids stayed up late while we played wii, watched Shrek 2 and ate lots of junk food. I have written a whole list of new years resolutions. Check out my scrap blog to see the page I made about them. Some of the big ones are:
1. lose 30 lbs.
2. finish painting all the rooms in the house.
3. grow a bigger garden than last year
4. get 50k more out of debt
5. get a scrapbook page published
6. watch less tv
7. read 12 classic books (one a month)
8. run a 10K (again)

These are the big ones. Our big thing that's going on for us is our 10th wedding anniversary on June 19th. And to celebrate, we booked a 7 night trip to New York City! I am so, so excited! We got tickets to the Lion King on Broadway, and I have a long list of things I want to do and see while we are there. Kyle's dad Chris is going to watch the boys (brave soul) and we are taking a long awaited vacation.

Hope you all are having a great new year!

YAY for NYC! I am so glad you are going to do something more fun than eat at McDonald's!
I love your resolutions, too. It reminds me that I need to actually write mine down!

Good luck with your goals. And how fun to go to New York, you guys will have a blast, and good luck to Chris!

Cute pics of all your Christmas and New Year events. Looks like you guys got as much snow as we have!

And the shooting pictures make me laugh, it reminds me so much of Texas.

I love your resolutions. So smart to blog them. Now you HAVE to do them! :)

You should join our bookclub. We read a classic each month and it's FUN!

I hope you had a great Christmas. I miss you.

Great resolutions! And NYC is so much fun, you MUST go have brunch at the Brooklyn Diner - it was always one of my favorite places to eat. Best Wishes for a very Happy New Year!
