25 tasks revisited

Today is my 26th birthday!  Last year on my 25th birthday I made a list of 25 things I wanted to do that year.  A year later, there are still a lot I'd haven't completed.  However, I moved twice (old house to condo and condo to new house), got pregnant, and had a baby...so I guess I just took on some bigger "projects" : )  I'd like to continue to work on completing my list this year and make it another year to remember!  Here is my entry from last year:

p.s. bold items are completed

For my twenty-fifth birthday, I decided to challenge myself to complete twenty-five tasks before my next birthday. I thought of activities that would be both enriching and fun. Some tasks are very specific and others are open to interpretation. As I complete a task, I plan to write a blog entry about it and include photographs (each task must be photographed in order for me to mark it off!). Life's too short to miss out on opportunities, right? Here's to making this a year to remember!
