30 Things Before 31

I was inspired to do this by Michelle My Belle's 37 Things Before I Turn 38 List. There are many things I want to accomplish this year, some big and some little. When I saw Michelle's list, it got me thinking about all the things I have wanted to do, but just haven't gotten around to doing yet. So, here it is in no particular order.

1. Get my first tattoo
2. Learn to use all the features on my camera
3. Start taking pictures again
4. Grow my blog readership
5. Take each of my girls on monthly mom-daughter dates
6. Finally go on a honeymoon with Jason
7. Start and use a gratitude journal daily
8. Make a new friend
9. Stop biting my nails
10. Purge my house of everything that we don't love or use
11. Exercise at least 5 days a week
12. Learn to paint
13. Organize my office
14. Strengthen my relationships with my girls
15. Read 50 books
16. Go to California
17. Write daily (something other than my gratitude journal)
18. Go on monthly date nights with Jason
19. Visit my grandparents at least once a month
20. Officially join the church we have been attending
21. Start up and use a weekly meal plan
22. Buy our first house
23. Buy more local produce
24. Sell at least one of my photos
25. Volunteer on a monthly basis
26. Take a class to learn something new
27. Try 5 new foods
28. Go on a spontaneous road trip with the family
29. Find a wine that I enjoy
30. Being open to all opportunities that come my way

So there it is. With just under 11 months before my next birthday, we will see just how much I get accomplished.
