Team Pickles celebrated a very happy New Year’s with friends, family, food, skiing, and Harry Potter-watching up at the chalet!
Molly made a valiant effort and *almost* made it to midnight.
Ben did make it…
…just.
On the way home on New Year’s Day we talked about what we would like to do in the coming year and set some personal goals for 2015…more or less.
Ian: More looking for yes —– Less jumping to no.
Karyn: More exercising —– Less snacking.
Ben: More accepting no —– Less freaking out.
Molly: More listening —– Less punching.
Stay tuned over the next year to see how it goes. I’ll make sure to share any strategies and tips we come up with for achieving those goals – what works, and what doesn’t.

What about you? What are your resolutions this year? Have you got any tips for us starting out?
All of this. 🙂
There are perfect!!!!! I think I will be borrowing a few for my own brood!! Happy New Year!
Love these–and the “Less punching” made me laugh. Good luck!
MotsoSuperMom. Seriously?
I have a serious problem with nor proofreading before I send things……

Lol – I read it as “MotoSuperMom” and thought it could be a great option for your mid-life crisis name eventually!
Not making resolutions this year but I love this. Erin
Thanks! We weren’t going to either and then this sort of happened organically.
Wait wait. Do you have a new baby?? How could I have missed this? I personally like “less punching.” It means she’s spunky to begin with, which I like, as you may imagine. I only condone punching when moderately necessary, though.
Thanks for stopping by moo cow and your sweet words. We are excited. 🙂
Lol – Nope, no new baby, though not for lack of trying! Baby William is Ben and Molly’s newest cousin, with another to follow any minute.
Seriously – “less punching” is already proving a real problem for Molly. The kid has definitely got spunk! I’m torn between finding it totally hilarious and very, very wrong (*stern face*).
I love how William brought in the New Year!
I know, right? I was very tempted to do the same thing!
