So...we are big goal setters. Every year for the last several years we sit down as a family and make our new goals for the year. We each make our own personal goals as well as making family goals. I love this tradition!I print out cute pages for each of us and I post them in a place we look at each day. Right now they are inside our pantry door and trust me I see the inside of that pantry probably more than any other spot in our home.
At the end of each year we take down our goals and review what we accomplished. I tuck the old sheets away so we can look back at them some day and remember some of the fun things we have done over the years.
The kids have really been excited about their own personal goals and I love what it teaches them. There is something to be said about writing it down and putting it in a visible location so you can't "forget".
If you have not been a goal maker in years past, give it a try. I think you will love it.

Great idea! That sounds like a wonderful FHE. Your blog looks Great! I love the layout :)
I'm so glad you guys started a blog. You know I'll be checking it often. And about the goals...I think we're definitely going to have to give that a try. I'm also going to look into that book. I love reading new children's books :)
I love this idea! We are big goal-setters as well, but how fun to have your little ones make their own goals. I especially like the "bye-bye diapers". :)
Thanks for the book recommendation--it's on my library list!
