News Years Resolution - Already?

So our family has sat down and vowed to a new years resolution that will begin a month earlier than traditional this year. S L O W d o w n! Sounds so simple but boy has it been challenging for our house. The girls are overscheduled and my work schedule has been a bit nutty in addition to Dave's ministry schedule and we hardly know who is coming and going. So in an effort to organzie and slow down I am trying to create some sort of sanity with a weekly schedule/to do list.

First goal for this week is making 5 out of 7 dinners at home. Sounds so simple but it will be a hard task to pull off at our house. I'm dusting off the crock pot and googling some recipes this afternoon. Wish us luck!

Here is a link to a newly reunited group that recently sprouted up on Utube. A good friend of mine tipped me off to them and they are my new holiday favorite. I love true talent that can hold its own without a bunch of high flying techno lights and sound effects.
