My 30 before 30

  I recently came across this "30 before 30" project of Women everywhere who have compiled lists of the things they would like to accomplish before their 30th birthday. I thought this was AWESOME! Only problem is, most of them are working on the lists only months before their 30th birthday. Bein the youngin' that I am, I have years before my 30th, and I knew this was the perfect time to start it. Most of my goals are BIG ones, but I knew I wanted them to be big ones because I have so long, so they should be those giant life changing accomplishments. Without further adieu...I present to you, my 30 before 30...

I know its tough to read, so here is a copy for you, (this is just the one I printed out to frame next to my bed)

1.   Get married in the church my Great Grandfather built

2.  Buy my dream home

3.  Find a new church in Arkansas to attend regularly

4.   Find a ministry to get involved with in that church

5.   Go to Vegas

6.   Go to New Orleans during  Mardi Gras

7.    Have babies (3 or 4 if Gods willing!)

8.   Visit Europe with my husband

9.   Take my Kids somewhere Disney

10. Get in “Victoria Secret Model” shape

11.Run a 5k

12. Visit New York

13.Bring home a puppy that becomes part of the family

14. Begin a career that doesn’t feel like work, and THRIVE in it

15.  Learn to Sew

16.Make a Salad from veggies I grew in my Garden

17. Host Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner

18.Create a successful blog

19. Own a pair of Christian Louboutins

20. Send my parents on a fantastic trip

21. Be the Matron of Honor in my baby sisters wedding

22. Own a boat

23.Have $50,000 in my savings account

24. Go on a hot air balloon ride

25. Buy a “hot mom” car

26. Go snowboarding

27.  See the ball drop in NYC

28.  Be debt free (besides Mortgage debt, that doesn’t count!)

29.  Make a quilt for each of my children

30.Look back on my first 30 years proud of what I’ve accomplished

31.   *BONUS! Make a 40 before 40, for the next 10 years.

       Pretty neat right? I really encourage all of you to sit down, and REALLY think about what you want on your 30 before 30 (or 40 before 40 or 70 before 70 who knows!) list. I took a few days to really think about what I wanted to be on mine. This is something that I want to really focus on the next few years of my life, and I can't wait to cross some off! I'm going to add these to my menu bar at the top, so if you need some inspiration, or you want to check my progress on my 30 before 30, just check it out there! (I probably wont be checking off have 3 or 4 kids anytime soon, but you never know on some of the others!)

     Let me know if you decide on a 30 before 30 list, and what you put on yours. Short term goals? Long term goals? Any super fantastic items you hope to one day own? (oh Christian Louboutin, you have my heart).
