"What greater thing is there for human souls than to feel that they are joined for life - to be with each other in silent unspeakable memories." --- George Eliot

2011 Resolutions

At the beginning of every year we sit down to do Resolutions...
Ours aren't necessarily the traditional kind, we have 4 categories.
Goals
Needs
Wants
Books to Read

In our Goal Category we were able to accomplish quiet a few
The biggest... Reading the Book of Mormon as a family. We finished in October and started again
Prepare Sunday Lessons before Sunday
Exercise 3 times weekly
FHE Weekly -- we did perfect until calving and then on and off through the end of the year

Needs
A new computer was purchased in March
Vacuum in November
the only thing we didn't accomplish was a 5 year Anniversary Trip

Wants
Our want list seemed to diminish as the year went on, a few things were purchased but most were scratched off as we changed our minds

Books to Read

Daniel
BOM
Hunger Games- all 3
Pioneer Woman
Help
and many others.. he didn't keep track of all of them

Jesse Mae
BOM
Hunger Games- all 3
Pioneer Woman
Thomas S Monson to the Rescue
The Remarkable Soul of a Woman
Help
Twilight Saga... again
And a few others I can't remember

2011 was a great year and we did great things together as a family. We grew together as we lost Kari, we were dreadful tired during calving. We saw TOO much of Wyoming in our 7 trips to UT/ID. And our family grew from 3 to 4. A year to remember.  Now to turn the page to 2012.
