Happy New Year!! I can hardly believe today is the first day of a brand New Year, can you? With it comes fresh new opportunities to do things differently then we have done, make goals and take chances , dream big and try again .

We love New Years Resolutions and getting to create new ones while we also reflect on the ones from the past year . Our family loves to take the time on New Years Eve or New Years Day to review our resolutions from the previous year and mark through what we accomplished or completed. We also love to make our resolutions for the New Year . We take time to think through trips we want to take , character traits we are working on , adventures , a new skill we want to learn or projects we want to complete.

We always do the following categories when we make resolutions ⬇️

Each Family Member has their own space for resolutions

Home

Family

Marriage

Now that we have been doing this since our kids were little, they look forward to it each year . It’s fun to see the resolutions they come up with for themselves and a fun opportunity to cheer when they mark through them .

Here is a breakdown of each of the categories ⬇️

The family ones are things we would like to do as a family this coming year . They include serving together , trips we want to take and family adventures or connection times .

The marriage one is good to put yearly goals we want to do for our marriage. For example, an intentional study together or getaways for the year ahead. Putting those goals on the calender has been such a blessing the past few years in us actually doing them.

The Home one is great for projects that we are planning on for the next year. We put things like completing our yard, selling a car or new windows.

Your turn❤️ Do you make resolutions for the New Years? If so , what are some of yours? Do you have a special way of doing them ? I would love to hear all about what works for you and your family .
