1. Take a picture a day for a year (and blog about it here) I tried and made it through August... better than nothing, I suppose
2. Get a really short haircut (Shaynah and I already have it planned)
|
DONE! May 2011. |
3. Go to Washington D.C. for Liz's 21st birthday (to see our aunts and visit Peter!) A bummer that we didn't make it- perhaps next year?
4. Move (either to Colorado or just out of the house)
5. Sky dive!
6. Pay off at least one of my student loans
7. Start a "Colorado Chalet" fund so someday I'll have enough money tucked away to buy that house
8. Wear more skirts and dresses... when the weather cooperates
|
I have so many dresses and I'm actually wearing them! Getting the job at VB was the best thing for my dress addiction. |
9. Volunteer weekly
|
It hasn't exactly been weekly but definitely monthly with these bulletin boards, not to mention the walks I've been doing and the food shelf for half the year. I think I'm doing the right amount of volunteering. |
10. Have a mothers/daughters tea with the girls
|
Our mother/daughter/sister/cousin tea! That space on the right is for my mom who had a migraine and was napping and Kasi (Jaci's sister) who arrived later. It was a lovely time! Hopefully we can do it again this spring and everyone will be able to attend. January 2011. |
11. Road trip! I don't care where or with whom, I've just never done it
|
Liz & I drove to Wisconsin Dells, Madison and Chicago for a 4-Day-Weekend! July 2011 |
12. Photo shoot
|
Abby took lovely pictures of me (for the maurices modeling contest) and some fun ones of Heidi and me on Friday. It was so much fun and exactly what I wanted to do! I just wish we could have taken pictures all day! April, 2011. |
13. Visit Colorado with someone fun
14. Get a tattoo
15. Father-Daughter date doing whatever my dad wants to do
|
Gopher hockey game vs. Michigan State. I bought the tickets, he picked the game. November 2010. |
16. Make a quilt
17. Have another amazing dinner party
|

19. Go camping, even if its just in the backyard
20. Catch a concert at First Ave
|
Panic! at the Disco = best concert ever, June 2011 |
21. Find a drive in movie (and perhaps borrow someone's convertible for an extra awesome experience)
22. Go to the zoo!
|
Saturday adventure day at the MN Zoo with Tyler, Janelle and Liz, April 2011 |
