2015 Here We Come

Well, we're all set for the holidays to be over.  Today I stocked the 3 produce drawers full of fruits and veggies, and I have 2 cantaloupes, a watermelon, and a huge bag of apples out in the garage.  My 2015 fitness goal includes getting in my fruits and veggies each day.  I heard a new trick to get your kids involved in eating healthy and I tried it today.  Give them each a dollar and let them pick out something to try in the produce section.  It worked like a charm.  Maggie picked a juicy red apple, Josh picked a green pear, Jack picked an orange, and Sam picked a watermelon.  They couldn't wait to get home and eat their finds.  I will definitely be using that tactic more.  
The rest of my 2015 goals are:
-Work harder on keeping my blog updated.  I really like having a journal done that we can look back on see pictures along with thoughts.
-Give my kids more eye contact.  I find myself getting too busy, or distracted and not really giving them the attention they deserve.
-Get our finances in better order.  We started this process in 2014 by refinancing our house to a 15 year loan, but we need to make our money work for us, instead of the other way around.
-Continue on my fitness journey.  To date I am still down 23 pounds, but I'm up 18 from my last years lowest.  I'm recommitting myself to this process and forgiving myself for backsliding so much.
-Do a 5k this year.  I want to grow to do a full marathon eventually.
-Hike Timpanogas Mountain.  I've never done it and I really want to.
-Study the Preach My Gospel manual.
