30 before 30

It just hit me that I will be turning 30 this year!  Instead of making a New Year's resolution, I decided to make a list of 30 things I want to accomplish before turning 30.  Now, I realize most people give themselves a full year to complete this, but I just decided on this a few days ago. My list inCludes some fun, some things to better myself , and doing things for others. So, here's my list...

30 before 30

1.  Run a 5k (no walking)
2.  Make elderberry syrup
3.  Stay in a hotel in downtown Ft. Worth
4.  Try cooking new vegetables
5.  Go ice skating
6.  Pay for someone's drink at Starbucks
7.  Go to Rahr brewery
8.  Try a local restaurant in Fort Worth
9.  Make a wreath for our door
10.  Throw a baby shower for my sister in law
11.  Read a classic
12.  Give blood (I've never been able to do this and have always wanted to)
13.  Send out 5 cards "just because"
14.  Read 4 adult books
15.  Get a massage once per month
16.  Donate to a children's hospital
17.  Get a facial
18.  Watch someone's kids for them so that they can go out
19.  Make healthy sweets
20.  Try Bountiful Baskets
21.  Spend the afternoon in downtown McKinney
22.  Meet Anthony for lunch at work
23.  Get dressed up and go out
24.  Go one week without spending any money
25.  Buy 2 champagne glasses (I realize ever New Years Eve we have none)
26.  Have a game night with Anthony
27.  Plant flowers
28.  Buy myself fresh flowers "just because"
29.  Go to the food truck park in Ft. Worth

Catching Up



Wow....it's hard to believe that the last time I blogged (before yesterday) we hadn't even moved into the house and we've been in for 8 months!

We are loving our house and the dogs are too.  Here are few pictures.
