These are just a few we finished, here are new ones we added:
1. Finish book - Paul

3.Finish Scrapbook - Paul

4. Finish T-Shirt Quilt - Cassie

5. Eat healthier - Both

6. Finish Twilight Princess - Cassie

7. Work a Craft Show - Cassie

8. Fill in gaps on Paul's Family History Tree

We have a lot of goals and things we want to accomplish this year and I feel we did a really good job last year. 

I don't like picking a resolution and giving up on it after a few weeks. Which is why I have never had "loose weight" on my list. Yes it is important to be a healthy weight but what is healthy is different for everyone. All of my doctors tell me my weight it fine and I don't need to worry about it. According to all those charts out there I am overweight by 20+ lbs.  My opinion of those charts is poor at best. 

A resolution is supposed to be a renewal of trying to be a better you. I want to feel accomplished and healthy. So I am actively making choices that fit that criteria.
