New Year, New You, New House?

No, we're not moving, but I'm definitely cleaning and purging my way into the New Year. Now that the dust has settled somewhat, it's time to get organized and really focus on bringing this home to life. On today's list is cleaning out our fridges, airing out the guest rooms and laundering their sheets, washing windows that haven't been washed since we moved in, and tackling our own laundry...Seriously, if you have a system, let me know. There is no reason two people end up with so much dirty laundry.

Ahem. I digress. This was our first full year in our house, and I can't wait to reveal all the work we've done, like: 

• Installing hardwood floors
• Installing molding (both of the crown and chair varieties)
• Painting. Lots of painting
• Adopting a dog
• Cooking a multitude of dinners and treats
• Oh, and planning our wedding

While walking Molly through the snow last night, the hubs and I decided our motto for 2011 is No Complacency.

We're most concerned with the final part of that definition - "smug self-satisfaction with an existing situation [...]" Are we happy? We're over the freaking moon. We're finally (my word) married, we've found a great house to grow in, we're fortunate enough to still have jobs, and our family is bearable healthy and happy. We just don't want to get too comfortable. It would be a shame to get this far only to quit. We've accomplished so much in the past year, our momentum is just catching speed.

What are your home goals for 2011?
