2008 was the year...I started with a small list of goals:
1. take a picture a day for 365 days.
2. loose weight.
3. organize junk drawers.
4. study gospel manuals.
2008 was the year...
I ended with
1. an unfinished photo project.
2. weight gain.
3. junk drawers still full of junk.
4. gospel manual studies collecting dust.
the moral: new years resolutions are not my thing.
the upside of 2008:
- a daughter realizing her dream of starting kindergarten.
- a son getting baptized
- a husband graduating college.
- a little boy graduating to a toddler bed and converting to the English language (as opposed to his native tongue of Calebese)
- a mom discovering the Internet and her love of blogging
- a family of 5 evening things out by starting to become a family of six
(gender yet to be determined)
2008 was a pretty good year... vomit, fatness, insane college courses, and all.
But I am willing to bet that 2009 is going to be even better.

Loved your post. Happy New Year...I also don't believe in resolutions.
ready or not here comes 2009! and i am all about setting goals, just not on the 1st of anything or on mondays! hope you are doing well.
I know- I hate new years resolutions because i just disappoint myself. I'm trying to get a list together right now. We'll see what I come up with. I like this post.
Yay for the new year! And yay for the great accomplishments. A healthy baby is more important than our size....Just keep remembering that!! :)
Ahh the sacrifices...
