Mark and I sat down at the end of October to think about what in the world we were doing with our lives! I've always been a planner and a goal setter but life has been a whirlwind since having our second child. It's been a reminder to me that we have to be really intentional with how we spend our time. As I've said before this blog is a way for us to keep track of our family now and for future generations to read. There is lots of room for growth in our lives and this is just a starting point. Here are a few goals written down so that hopefully we can be held accountable throughout the year.
