Not so new year's resolution

I'm not real big on new year's resolutions since you usually don't keep them which makes them pointless.  However, I do believe we should have various goals in life - in various stages and degrees.  I have a good friend who had a goal of doing a full marathon before she was 40 (she had already done several halfs).  I told this to Caleb and he said he supported me if I wanted the same goal.  No way!  Although I have also done several half-marathons and even a sprint triathlon, I have zero desire to spend half my week training, not to mention trying to figure out what to do with the kids.  Anyways, I did think of a much more reasonable and satisfying goal.  I have never been to either the bottom of the Grand Canyon or Havasupai.  After thinking much about it, I would rather hike to Havasupai.  See below for some beautiful pictures of Caleb's previous trips done there.  So this means I have 3 1/2 years to birth two more kids (our goal was 3 total) and get in shape before I reach 40!!!  Anyone want to join us on the backpacking hike in a few years?  The more the merrier!
