Since this year it’s just the 4 of us we decided to keep our New Year’s partying pretty low key. We went into the village and had a dinner that was perfect for each of us.

While at dinner, I shared my New Year’s hopes with my family. Much to my surprise Lana got right on board with her list of what she wished to achieve in the new year, as did Nuno. Their lists are pretty cute, so I will take them back and post them on our bulletin board back home, but  I thought I would share them here too.

Lana’s List:

1. Swim at least 50m butterfly without getting tired.
2. Same as above, but with 100m medley.
3. Stay more in touch with far-away friends like Chelsea.
4. Start to think more about what I eat. (The kid does not like veges or fruit)
5. Start getting Muito Bom (Very Good) or more on my tests.
6. Take less than 49:59 on 50m backstroke.

Nuno’s List:

1. Save my money.
2. Eat more protein.

And on that note, I wish you a happy, healthy, prosperous and exercise filled New Year!
