Goals Update: June

My husband and I took time to make goals for ourselves for 2013. We tried to be specific and will hold ourselves to these goals. After three months, we have begun 11 out of the 13 goals, with 4 fully accomplished!
  1. Plan a vacation for just the two of us. Save to pay for it up front! - no plans made yet, savings are building - We are visiting my sister & her family the first weekend of June and I am surprising my husband with a day at Disneyland!!
  2. Pay off 100% of student loans!
  3. Save and buy a "new" vehicle - $3,284.50 saved as of May 31, 2013
  4. Save 100% of emergency fund - 98.3% as of May 31, 2013--> put together two saving accounts; plan to be done in June!
  5. Get basement and garage ORGANIZED!
  6. Floor the attic (more storage) - still haven't thought about this at all, too far down on the list to do anything
  7. Bret to purchase the firearm of his choice
  8. Organize a Legacy Drawer  - About 90% completed! Need to write legacy letters & think of funeral plans --> sad to think about, probably why we are putting it off!
  9. Make wills for each of us
  10. Build a 72-Hour emergency kit (here and here) --> haven't even started this, slackers! We were at Bass Pro this week and saw some survival supplies we need to get
  11. Be intentional about finding opportunities to give to others --> I have tried to find opportunities for random acts of kindness
  12. Plan our meals by the week - so far, so good! We do this on Sunday night for the following week
  13. Keep communication open and loving between us --> We have been trying to pray together at least once a day
