Happy New Year~2011

fondue for New Year's Eve

We reflected back on on 2010 as a family and were very thankful for our blessings and opportunities.  At our first monthly family meeting we talked about our goals (and dreams) for 2011.  Our family went through a lot in our first decade.  Marriage, babies, moves, losses, career changes, financial struggles and gains, friendships were made and then left behind, but as we reflect back upon it we wouldn't change a thing.  We look forward to this next decade and what adventures it will bring...but first we must focus on the year ahead 2011.  Our families goals are very much the same as last year.  Family meetings once a month, trying and enjoying new healthy foods, eating in moderation and exercising, living on a budget, enjoying our time together as a family and the list is posted in the kitchen.  We believe goals (and dreams) should be written down, not only spoken.  It's a nice reminder every morning as I make school lunches to see "our list" and to remember our goals and dreams.  Hope everyone has a wonderful year filled with friendship and family time, health, luck and love....
