101 Goals in 1001 Days

Image
Each year when January 1st comes around, many of us sit down and make new goals to achieve. Weight loss, pay off debt etc. etc. How about making and achieving 101 Goals in 1001 Days. What would you want to do? Would you finish them all?

So far I have made a list of 61 goals to complete. Last Wednesday, February 23, I completed the first one - take the kids to the zoo. It was a fun day! Mr. Apple wasn't able to go he had a snowboarding trip to go on and Mr. Jacks had a wrestling meet that day. Gave the kids 'a get out of school' free card and went, picnic in tow.

Completed a goal and all I get is a 'WOHOO'! No way! After each goal I complete, I am putting $5.00 away in a special savings account to treat myself and my dear hubby to something special on day 1002.

So I challenge any readers that may come my way - give it a try!

Superhero's and little boys

Image. The girls needed more room, so we swapped the boys and girls rooms. Morgan's and Michael's room was quite colorful. They have about 5 wall panel's, each one was a different color; pink, yellow, lavendar, green, and blue, with a blue ceiling that has glittery stars. Not for them or me.
Image Morgan loves Superhero's. He sat down with Austin one afternoon and learned all about their powers and who each character was. Then told his Dad all about them. Michael love's Buzz Lightyear and Woody. I found two posters. Still need to hang Woody and the gang. The boys love their room.
Image The paint is called Sonata, a blueish gray. I found the wall stickers at Walmart. The bunkbed's we got for Austin and Justin about 10 years ago and the dresser was given to us by our old neighbor in Surprise, both are in need of a facelift. Eventually we will repaint them after a few other projects are finished.
Image The girls room is next to do and they are excited to have it done!
