30 Before 30

To celebrate me turning 29 (twenty NINE…what?!?) today, I decided to make a list of 30 things I’d like to do before I turn 30. Obviously, I don’t have an unlimited amount of time or money to travel the world and make a true “bucket list”, but these are my realistic ideas of things I can do close to home over the next 365 days. Here’s to hoping this last year in my 20s is a great one!

In no particular order…

MY 30 BEFORE 30 LIST: 

1. Find and make an appointment with a primary care doctor (Anyone have a recommendation for someone in the Madison/Huntsville area??).
2. Find a hairdresser in town and get a NOTICEABLE hair cut…not just a “trim”! (Recommendations, anyone??)
3. Read all of the parenting books that are stacking up on my nightstand.
4. Do another Whole 30.
5. Go on a kid-free overnight trip with Travis.
6. Learn how to put in contacts so I can see again OR just wear my glasses regularly!
7. Learn how to sew (even if it’s just a button).
8. Pick out and order king sized bedding for our new bed.
9. Find a good moisturizer and start using it on my face every day!
10. Frame some pictures of Savannah around our house (2nd child problems…).
11. Make a list of everything I’m thankful for.
12. Give up soft drinks for 1 month.
13. Use the spa gift card that Travis gave me for my birthday (like 2 years ago…whoops).
14. Purge and organize my clothes in our dresser.
15. Purge and organize my shoes in the closet.
16. Make a green smoothie.
17. Write Brooklyn and Savannah each a letter to be opened when they are older.
18. Go see a movie in the theater.
19. Order something I wouldn’t normally get at a restaurant.
20. Play tennis.
21. Have a game night at our house.
22. Try using coconut oil as a conditioner for my hair.
23. Give blood at a blood drive.
24. Pay for the person behind me in the drive-thru at a fast food restaurant.
25. Write someone an encouraging card just because.
26. Take Brooklyn and Savannah to the zoo.
27. Unplug from social media for a month.
28. Try a new recipe for dinner.
29. Turn my blog into a book and have it printed.
30. Run two 5Ks (Liz Hurley + one other).

Well, there you have it! Hopefully by this time next year I will be able to cross all of those things off the list. Stay tuned! :)
