In 5 years

In 5 years- 2017 What do I want my life to look like? We are busy living productive lives doing things that fulfill us and improve our community. Nick has published one children’s book. I am enjoying my interests of birding, hiking, naturalist education, healthy sustainable living, and kid’s literature. What do I want for my family? My kids are 21, 19, 11, 9- all are happy and healthy. Abby is in college and living on her own, Zac is serving a mission. Our family is strong, active in the church, engaged in good works, and has fun making memories together. What do I want my health to look like? I am healthy, strong, and fashionably funky. I eat a mostly vegan diet and support local resources when possible. I hike often and have completed a 50 mile backpacking trip. What do I want my finances to look like? We are comfortably and abundantly living below our income. We have no debt and have 2 newish working cars that were paid for by cash. We have a healthy savings account and we are able to help the kids with college and mission expenses. We are able to take one rocking vacation a year to far off lands including Alaska, Hawaii, Europe, India. What do we want our relationships to be like? Nick and I have a strong marriage based on love, trust, honesty and laughter. We support each other’s goals and dreams and help each other be the best we can while giving each other the freedom to be uniquely ourselves.
