December Goals

Starting a new series - monthly goals!  It's always good to set goals, long term and short term.  I feel way more committed (obligated?) to accomplish my goals when I have written them down.  So, I've decided to share my monthly goals with all of you.



1. Playroom - I try to seriously clean out the kids' play area twice a year.  I always have the kids clean out their toys before Christmas.  Not only does it make room for their new toys, but it also reminds them that there are kids who aren't as fortunate as they are.  They fill up a big bag of toys to donate to those in need.  Plus, I normally get to see what the playroom looks like clean for about 20 minutes (bonus).

2. Address & Send Christmas cards - This is a given, but I'm going to feel pretty awesome to check something off my list ;)  I felt behind this year, so getting those sent out asap will make me feel a lot better.  I LOVE getting Christmas cards in the mail, and I hope people feel the same when they open ours.

3. Isabella's birthday is at the beginning of February.  It sneaks up on us FAST.  I would love to go into winter break knowing it's planned/booked and ready to go.  Recently she has said she wants a party at SkyZone AND something Harry Potter related.  I'm working on how I can make all of that happen on a budget ;)

4. I've already begun looking back at old Christmas pictures, and it never ceases to amaze me just how quickly this time of year goes buy.  Sometimes I'm so focused on shopping, wrapping, and completing my to do list that I forget to sit back and cherish these times.  Pretty soon, my kids will be want to spend Christmas texting their friends and asking for money.  I'm going to enjoy these magical years while they last.

What kinds of goals do you have for the month?

XOXO
