Dirty Thirty

In five short months I will be turning (gulp) 30. To be honest I am not looking forward to this birthday at all. I have come across a few blogs where people who are going to turn 30 have compiled a list of the things they want to accomplish before their birthday. I decided to follow suit in hopes that I would achieve some major goals while looking forward (instead of dreading) the big 3-0! Below is my list - I plan to update you as I accomplish these goals.

This list currently is posted to my refrigerator as a big fat reminder of the 30 things I need to accomplish in 5 short months - I'm hoping by having it on my blog I will be more motivated to accomplish the list!

    I have some wonderful ideas on how I can help you accomplish some of these! 1) Go to one of those painting places that also have drinks that show you how to paint - that could also count as girl time too!
    2) Make the boys a super big pillow - you know, like the one we had when we were kids!
    3) You can bake the cake for Jesus' birthday party!!
    :) Just helping you get started. Where is the babysit my nephews once a month ??? Hmmm, just wondering :) :) :)
