Inspiration

My sister in law, Mindy, has TONS of wonderful ideas. I'm always in awe of her creativity. Well, she made up a list of 30 things she wants to do before shes...30. And that may or may not be next July. So it got me thinking...I have tons of stuff i want to accomplish, and if i had a goal like that (i think she gave herself a year) then i would actually be able to tackle a lot! Well, i still have a little while till i'm 30, so i decided to do 25 things to do before i'm 25. I'm giving myself a year and a half (since i'm almost at my 1/2 birthday). Let me tell you, it was harder to narrow it down to only 25 things! But, here is my list anyways :) Thanks for the idea Minds!
