If you have been reading for a while, you might recall that I made a list of 30 things I want to do while I am 30 years old. I have made better progress than I thought but still have some major activities to check off. Here is how I am doing:
- Read 3 classics [Things Fall Apart, Tale of Two Cities; one to go]
- Make out at the drive in
- Visit a battlefield
- Hike to a waterfall [done]
- Find my signature drink [Mojito or Salty Dog (made with vodka)]
- Go swimming after midnight [done]
- Memorize 3 chapters of Scripture [I've done a lot of individual verses this year but no consecutive verses]
- Sit on our roof [done: New Year's Eve for fireworks and our 5 year anniversary]
- Ride a Ferris wheel [I have not even been near one but I may end up in Myrtle Beach in a few weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to ride the new ferris wheel there.]
- Catch fireflies [done: caught and released]
- Write a letter to each of my brothers [Woah. I wrote Abram. One down. 5 to go]
- Read. Read. Read. To August. [done, done and done]
- Run a 5k [NOT gonna happen- maybe I'll bump it to 31... need to invest in a jogging stroller]

- See the sunrise
- Go skinny dipping [done]
- Write in August's daily journal consistently [done!]
- Get a massage [done! Thanks B]
- Blog 50 things [I didn't finish this but my goal was to blog more, which I have done. I'm calling it done. You can read the few I did here.]
- Do quarterly Capture the Day sessions [two done (December and March) need to get cracking on the others]
- Drink a mimosa at brunch [done]
- Continue monthly photo sessions with August [done until 1 year old; see some here]
- Catch up on family photo albums 2011-2013 (in time for mid-summer free pages sale 2014) [still need to do 2011 and 2012]
- Cook a month of meals with no repeats [done: I meal plan monthly and don't make the same meal twice although we certainly eat leftovers a few times]
- Eat risotto [done: yum!]
- Learn one new feature of Lightroom, completely
- Sit by a campfire
- Start my potager
- Hang wall art of family photos [done]
