New Years Resolutions

Better late than never.  At least it's still January, right?

2012 Goals:
Read & Study the Book of Mormon personally and as a family.
Keep a daily gratitude journal.
Kneel to pray, everyday.
Attend the temple 12 or more times.
Complete 72 hour kits.
Don't drink caffeine.

I am really sad to say I didn't do very good on my goals for the past year.  I did fine until about summer time and then I quit writing a daily gratitude journal and started drinking Dr. Pepper again.  Kneeling to pray ended pretty quick.  I am a bed prayer - I was hoping to break that habit.  I am happy to say I read the Book of Mormon entirely and we read it as a family but didn't complete it (which I am ok with).  I was able to attend the temple 12 times and complete our 72 hour kits.

Other Accomplishments:
We did a lot as a family this year - a lot of mini vacations!
One year closer to paying off our car & house. :)
One more year recorded on the blog.
