a glance back to our 2011 goals

I thought I had posted our 2010 goals before the summer, but I didn't. I love having my blog so I can look back at things from the past and see what we did or didn't do. It's a great memory keeper for me. My online scrapbook. Here are our 2011 goals and I have to admit we were successful in accomplishing most of them considering I was going to have a babe.

Looking back I'm bummed I never got around to taking a meal to a friend. I'm going to make up for that this Fall. Also last summer and this summer I did not cross off "less tv" or "memorize scripture". I think probably that will always be on the list but something I may never cross off. Well, maybe less tv...but I hope memorizing scripture will be something I'm always striving to do and never just be "done" with it.

This list has been great for our family. It has given us something to look forward to. To sit down as a family and do together, and each of us has input into what we want out of our summer.
