30 Things Before 30



Every year, I make a list of things that I want to accomplish by my next birthday. Here's to a new year and a new list. Some of these are big and seem lofty, some are fairly easy to accomplish. Check back every once in a while. I will have a tab at the top of this blog. If I mark something off, I usually will have a link with it. This year, I had too many things on my list which usually doesn't happen. I guess I'm ready to ring in 30 next summer with a bang. Let's do this. 
  1. Read 30 books. With my love for the library now, this should be easy. 
  2. 30 Recipes, meal plan for dinner. 
  3. Try Blue Apron or something like it. 
  4. Go on a family vacation. 
  5. Work on getting through Baby Step #2 (Dave Ramsey.)

  14. Get a facial at She She.

Summer Bucket List



Now that we are back from our vacation and life has gone pretty much back to normal, I'm realizing that the summer is already half over. Once we hit July 4th, I'll blink and it will be Christmas. I want Marin to be able to experience all of the fun things that the outside world has to offer. It is good for us to get out and do fun things. We have a huge backyard that needs to be played in far more often. Some of these are for me, some these are for Marin.
