26

Hey Everyone!

I had a birthday this past week.  It was most excellent.  I have fantastic roommates and friends who decorated my room, threw me a little party and just made me feel loved!

After turning 26, I have been thinking about some goals I would like to accomplish.  I learned, while training for my half-marathon, that I am 100% more productive in my day to day when I have an end goal in sight.  Thus, I have made a list of 26 things I want to accomplish in this, my 26th year.  Some are silly and some are serious and most are just little things that I would love to make happen, but just haven't done!  I actually stole this idea from a friend of a friends blog and I thought it was great.  Anyway, here is my list of 26!  I will update you all as I accomplish them:

1  Crochet something other than an afghan

2  Read the Chronicles of Narnia series again

3  Get a new hairstyle (whether cut, colored or highlights)

4  Run some 5k’s

5  Hike Mt.Timp from the Provo Canyon way

10  Reconnect with 5 old friends

12  Volunteer somehow with elementary aged children

17  Expand my cooking abilities

18  Write in my journal at least twice a week
