2013 Goals
With the New Year beginning, I thought it was the perfect time to create a list of my 2013 Goals. I enjoyed writing my list of Goals for 2012 last year and it was fun to look back on it and see what I accomplished.
I’m really happy with the amount of accomplished goals last year. I did increase the success of The DIY Dreamer like I wanted and actually even more than I thought I would, which is GREAT. I did not get the camera I wanted, however I did realize that I don’t need at $1,500 camera. I came across the Canon T3i and T4i and I think either one would be perfect for me and a lot cheaper, I should probably add this to my 2013 Goals. We went on a family trip. We went back to Punta Cana at the exact hotel where Sébastien and I got married. I did not however take mentoring sessions with Crave Photography nor did I do the Month in Photos. Oh well!!

2013 Goals
- Bring TheDIYDreamer.com one or ten steps higher.
I’m actually in the process of doing that right now. I have enrolled in the Laurie Turk’s (from TipJunkie) Mom Blog Money Blog. It’s a 31 days online workshop to help you ”Bring home the bacon in 31 days or less!”. The workshop is AMAZING!!
- Work with a major brand.
Ends up that I know for sure this goal is going to happen. I was contacted two weeks ago by a MAJOR company asking me if I was interested in working with them. I have to wait a little while before I can tell you all about it….but trust me it’s sooo exciting!!
- Learn to sew.
I got a super awesome sewing machine for Christmas. I’m looking forward to sewing projects.
- Spend more time playing with my girls.
I do A LOT of crafting/creating with my daughters, however I would like to spend more time playing together. Sébastien and I bought a bunch of board games and card games to play with our little ladies. I’m looking forward to having game nights with them.
- Have Date Nights or Days with my hubby.
Sébastien and I do EVERYTHING with our daughters. Which is SUPER fun, but we do need some alone time which we hardly ever do. I would honestly say we have couples night only 2 or 3 times a year and that includes our anniversary supper and Sébastien’s work Christmas party.
That’s it for my 2013 Goals. I might add some, but for right now those are my main goals.
Did you create a list of goals for this year? I honestly prefer the term ”goal” rather than resolution.. I find it more encouraging.
Have a fabulous day!



Happy New Year! It was fun reading about your goals. Your little ones will enjoy playing board games as a family – I know I did with my family growing up.
These are all awesome goals. That workshop does look interesting. I may have to look into that. I def wanna take my blog to the next level. Good luck learning how to sew! I love sewing! Start out with small projects and build yourself up
