Project 52

I got this idea from my friend Stacey who got the idea from one of her friends.  I'm setting 52 goals for the year 2012.   The idea isn't setting 52 goals but having something to work on for the 52 weeks in the year.  I loved this idea! Tyler and I had come up with a few goals for us for the year, but I really liked the idea of putting a little more thought into and going outside the box of "eat healthier, workout everyday, keep this clean, don't do this" I wanted more things to help me grow as a wife, friend, future mom, future Air Force  officer, and all around person.

I will admit that after reading Stacey's list, I liked some of her goals so much that I decided to use them as my own! Thanks Stacey! Oh! And since we don't really have a steady income and we're moving in March, I'm not going to be able to start on some of my goals until after May when the paychecks come rolling in or July when I'm back from tech school.

So, without further ado, here's my list!
