Looking forward

A list of creative goals for 2012

I do not believe in New Years Resolutions... I just do not like that word resolution.

However I do have a list of things I would like to accomplish this year... so in a way.. it is a resolution so to speak. 

Just not your normal... diet and exercise type resolution

Well exercise is on this list... so ....well .. 

Back to the point

A few things I have on my to do list this year include

1. More Artwork With Maddux. I love this paint in the glue containers.. genius.

We have been doing artwork for the holidays together... but now that we have moved I would like to do this once a week with him.

2. Try new recipes for dinner. It seems that we get into this cycle of the same recipes that get switched out. So I am hoping to add a few more to our lists this year. This baked potato soup looks amazing.

3. Plan Birthday Morning Traditions... for Jer, Maddux, and Nala.

I would love for them to wake up to a surprise.

4. Date night with the Hubby. Even a date night in. Taking a night to hang out and not do house projects.. at least once a month is something we need to make a priority.

12. Putting in a stone patio. Our deck is tiny... and I would prefer a stone patio... hoping to add one off of our deck like this picture I found on Pinterest. Lucky for me my dad does concrete.... so he should be able to get us started!
