• day trip to Playland
• more local fresh fruits and vegs
• more cooking at home including lots of bbq
• a couple trips to Big & Little Sliammon Lakes
• a cleaner, more well maintained home
• several trips to the local Women's Auxillary to get rid of stuff we no longer need
• no stress about little messes left around
• a large clothing purge
• less little screen time and more family movie nights, hopefully with the projector outside
• lots and lots of reading, I have several books lined up and ready
• some days of nothing
• Portland to visit friends

• nightly frisbee (this is really Lily's as she is obsessed right now)
• more hanging of the laundry outside
• lots of card making & selling for Lily and babysitting for Jackson
