Here is a recap of our family's greatest (sort of) accomplishments of 2014 and our goals for 2015.
Lara--
accomplishment: creating a chore system that actually lasted longer than a couple of weeks.
goal: dye my hair more often (and exercise more and eat healthier and try to be better). Seriously though, I either need to embrace the gray or dye it more often, because my hair looks horrible 98% of the time right now.
Glen--
accomplishment: getting a promotion at work which included a car allowance. After driving the old junker minivan to work for 3+ years, he couldn't be more excited about the decidedly unembarrassing red car he drives now.
goal: to successfully complete a century bike ride (100 miles) this summer. That's only zero to a hundred miles in six months.
Spencer--
accomplishment: making it through Organic Chemistry 241 with his brain {mostly} still intact.
goal: to do his part to keep stress levels in his and his parents' lives to a nice normal level.
Cami--
accomplishment: not only surviving her junior year and 3 AP classes at once (AP Calculus, AP Lang, and AP Human Geography), but kicking butt on them and getting 5, 4, and 5 on them respectively.
goal: to graduate HS with over a 4.0 GPA, to get into BYU-Provo, and go on a few hot dates in the meantime!
Emma --
accomplishment: officially became the best cook in the family when she beat Cami in a cupcake baking contest. I lost that title several years ago.
goal: to not eat any artificial food colorings or flavorings, gluten, sugar, or any food besides dark chocolate really.
Adam--
accomplishment: learning how to program a robot.
goal: to beat everyone (especially daddy) at every board game we own.
Ellie--
accomplishment: reading the first three Harry Potter books all by herself!
goal: to finish reading the Harry Potter series and to finally convince her mother to serve her anti-seizure medication on ice cream or pudding all the time, instead of boring old yogurt.
