2013 Goals

Travis and I got together this past week to write down our 2013 goals, both as a family and each individually.  It was a wonderful conversation with him and I'm excited to publish our goals.  Thank you for serving as my accountability throughout the year... When I blog about something, it seems like it's more likely to happen.  Not sure why.  Maybe it's because others now know and I don't want to let them down.  Maybe it's because when we write things down, it's harder to forget.  No matter the reason, I am excited to share our goals with you!
