30 before 30

So, I was reading another blog...I can't remember the url right now; anyway she is like me, young mom in her twenties who has ambitions other than being a wife and mother. She wrote a list of things she wanted to do/accomplish before she turned 30. Now she is a bit younger than me, 25 I think, but I have been thinking about doing it also. I almost feel as if God is telling me to write this list...saying Prove Me. SO here goes. They are in no particular order; just 30 things I want to see happen in my life on or before my 30th birthday.

1. own my own home
2. go on a real honeymoon
3. let my hair grown past my shoulders
4. write/publish a book
5. lose 50lbs (hopefully I can accomplish this one soon!)
6. put together my children's baby books (better late than never)
7. be "teacher of the year"
8. join the praise dance ministry at church
9. learn Spanish
10. take a cooking class
11. have a dinner party
12. throw away my inhaler
13. keep my house in some state of clean for longer than 3 days
14. develop a routine for house keeping (trust me, I need one!)
15. have $15,000 saved
16. visit a foreign country (Paris or London are my #1 & 2)
17. develop a skill i can use to work from home
18. Praise GOD out loud and not care who sees me! (This should be #1)
19. help my husband learn to eat healthier
20. dedicate 1 day per month to spend time w/myself
21. have a REAL best friend!
22. buy new furniture
23. learn how to swim
24. Take a road trip and visit all my relatives (up north)
25. Attend a Maddox family reunion
26. Make six figures in 1 year (not including my hubby's salary)
27. buy a fully loaded minivan (corny, I know)
28. only work because I want to
29. send my parents on a trip
30. laugh so hard I literally cry

There. I may add to it later, but that was what I know i want off the top of my head. Once I hit 30, I'll guess I'll make a list of 35 things before 35. I still have a little time left. 2 years, 7 months, and 30 days to be exact! Go ahead God; show out! Show your Glory through me!! In Jesus' name, Amen

Until next time.......
