Choosing Goals

Make-Out Marriage Resolution

The first step in making marriage resolutions for the upcoming year is to decide what you both think would make for a stronger marriage. Sit down together and choose THREE resolutions that you would like to work on. We’ve provided tons of ideas for you, so you can feel free to choose one of those but if you’ve got something specific in mind, Kayley has included some adorable blanks for you to fill in, too!

Creating Marriage Resolutions

To make sure you stick to your goals, it’s essential that you agree to a specific time frame. For some of your marriage resolutions, you may want to work on it every day while others might only happen once or twice throughout the year. Choose a time period card for each goal and you’ll be more likely to make it happen!

Making Someone Accountable

Accountability for Marriage Resolutions

Also essential to keeping your Marriage Resolutions is creating accountability. Complete one of the Accountability Cards for each of your goals and start making detailed plans for who and how you’re going to make it happen! Remember to work together to decide – you could each be responsible for one goal or work on them all together. If just one of you is ‘responsible’ for it though, it doesn’t mean that you can’t both participate. Marriage is all about teamwork!!

Displaying Your Marriage Resolutions

The final step is to add the year in the box and then find a place to put your goals where you and your spouse will notice and be reminded of your resolutions all year long. Pick a cute frame and then put your finished marriage resolutions on display! It’s going to be a fantastic year!!

I find a way to be highly creative and highly organized all at the same time. I love discovering a new favorite book, sitting on my back porch in the mornings, mountain views, and random science facts! I married my high school sweetheart after dating for nearly a decade and I love meeting people who know how to make me laugh, like my husband who can crack me up by just looking at me.
