Better late than never I guess. My goal for the year is Crop Champion.

I spent the first half of the year going through old photo albums. Cleaned out and organized many of them.

This was part of the Family Room clean up/remodel. Still going on but I've mad a lot of progress. 3 book shelves left to clean out. Got the majority of the room cleaned and organized though.

Now to scrapbooking goals:
finish DCL Vow Renewal Albums 2011
Mom's 60th BD Album
Nephew Marshall's First Birthday Album
Nephew Marshall's First Year Album
Brother Mark's Grad Album

Nan I am borrowing your format too

General Scrapping:
Pages: 500 pages
keep up the making them better & fewer quick pages

Projects to finish:
repainting trim - DH is mainly working on this
fix flower beds

Albums I am Working on:
Disney 2013 - Mine, Richard & James & Sisters
Reg album

Organizing:
Sewing room
my closet
linen closet
Paper Stash


Shopping:
I will only buy scrap items that I have a specific and immediate use for
no impulse buys
shop from lists


Personal:
Stick to my budget
Exercise 3 cardio & 2 wieght per week
stick to diet
relax more


hopefully I'll do a better job on everything - last year I did great on scrapping but not so well on the rest of it

didn't do too good on this
got Disney albums done
didn't get as many photos taken this year but I'm still not up to date on my albums
flower beds did get a lot of work done on them - gotta see what comes back form the plants we planted this year
next year I need to add boarders for it all to make it prettier - that is going to need some money plus I want to make the cover patio better (which will come first)
didn't do exercise but did lose weight when I started working my new job
I'm relaxing more when the boys are home
still need to work out the budget
DH is working on the bathroom instead of finishing the trim - next up will be Kitchen then work on flooring

so lots of plans for next year so we are looking ahead but no Disney trip until I can get time off from work to go then it will be a shorter trip
