Gaiser Goals

2016 is a very exciting year for our family. Not because of anything specific but because we choose for it to be. It's time to become better planners & make more lasting memories for our kids. I believe by writing down our goals for the year it holds us accountable & drives us to obtain them. Below are our family's goals for the year:

  • Plan 3 camping trips (with our new camper) including 1 trip to a new destination.
  • Put more money into our emergency savings. (Who doesn't want to do this, right??)
  • Eliminate as much debt as possible.(I'm excited to report that as of yesterday we've knocked out $3,300 worth of debt in 13 days!)
  • Attend church more often. (I promised myself last year that I would start going to church more often & I did. Now I want to up it even more.)
  • Strive to become a better meal planner.
  • Sign the kids up for more extra curricular activities.
  • Stick to our monthly budget more consistently.
  • Learn the ins & outs of canning since we're planting our 1st garden. (I see a lot of quality time with my mother-in-law in my future.)
  • Modify our chicken coop, extend the run, & add to our flock.
  • Start saving for our Disney 2017 trip.
  • Plan a mini vacation for Brian & I to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary.
  • Build a fire pit & picnic area to enjoy the beautiful weather with our family & friends.
  • Upstairs bathroom renovation.
  • Turn our storage area in the basement into my canning & food storage room. (I'm stoked about this one!!)
We have set some pretty exciting goals for ourselves this year. I can't wait to start crossing these off of the list & will update on them as the year goes on. What do you have planned for 2016?
