So. As you may very well know, I turn 25, today. I’m still a baby, yes. A baby with babies, if you will.
I have seen this sort of list on a few blogs I frequent. A list comprised of “goals” to complete before the next birthday. I’ve been adding to this list for the better part of two months. I don’t know what this says about me, but IT WAS TOUGH! If I do this every year, I have no idea what the heck I’ll be listing. I’d *like* to imagine this means I feel fulfilled, but maybe it just means I’m unimaginative and not daring enough. Either way, I hope to come back to this post through-out the year to strike some off. I’ll let you know when I do. A few will have to wait until next March to meet their fate.
In no particular order, here is my list of 25 things to do before I turn 26:
1. buy a house(Our new home!)
2. take a photo of myself every week
3. 25 handmade gifts
4. 12 cupcakes from scratch (1 recipe a month)
5. 52 TtV shots (1 every week, or all in one day)
6. learn to drive (*shame*)
7. take a road trip(San Antonio!)
8. make a big-people quilt
9. make a granny square blanket
10. sew something at least once a month
11. lose 25 lbs
12. kiss on a bridge
13. end the engagement
14. paint something
15. frame something
16. make a new friend
17. walk on a beach
18. make a wreath
19. make a piece of furniture
20. have a giveaway every other month (starting today!)
21. throw a party
22. establish date night
23. spend a night without Andrew(where’d my baby go?)
24. get the goodknits shop goingIt’s here! http://www.etsy.com/shop/omgknits
25. blog more consistently (at least twice a week)
I had to learn to drive as a defense mechanism. I suffer from extremely severe motion sickness no matter where I’m sitting unless I’m driving.
I love #12. & when you do #13 I vote for going to the courthouse.
I would love to have a night without Otto. Only in my wildest dreams.

Happy Birthday!! Thats a great list. I haven’t been setting any goals for myself lately, which is kind of depressing.
(I’m 25 too *fist bump*)

I want to do one of these “things to do before…” lists, but I can never come up with anything. I’m so boring!
Good luck on your list!
