Happy Birthday Week to ME!!! Birthday's are a big deal in my family, so I will take the opportunity to induldge myself basically all week. Don't mind if I do. I turn the big 3-0 on Tuesday and I was just thinking about all the things that have happened in the last 10 years of life. I figured I'd share some of those things with you...so without further adieu and in no particular order...."My Twenties."
1. Graduated from college
2. Got married. :-)
3. Owned 2 homes
4. Became a mother!
5. Became an aunt
6. Traveled internationally to Brazil and Ethiopia (Mexico and Canada don't count as "international" in my book)
7. Paid off all our loans (besides mortgage)!
8. Got in my first and only car accident (thank you, snowy duluth hills)
9. Found out I hate substitute teaching
10. Quit my job (last normal scheduled day this week, I think!)
11. Grew spiritually
12. Discovered my 2 favorite books (Redeeming Love and Pride and Prejudice)
13. Continued to watch You've Got Mail countless times and NOT get sick of it
14. Learned to play guitar
15. Started intentionally learning about photography
16. Discovered my strengths and how to use them(took StrengthsFinder test)! Maximizer, Developer, Communication, Strategic, Activator
17. Got high blood pressure. :-(
18. Became ok with having high blood pressure. :-)
19. Started wearing pink.

LOVE the list...you forgot "ran into a runner." Ha!
What a great idea, writing a list of things you have done the past 10 years, and you were very busy!! I found my "Happy Book" this morning and your graduation from UMD is the first thing in it!!

You've inspired me to blog about turning 31...because that's something random. Random is good. I like random. :)
My favorite of your list was you got MARRIED...to my fantabulous brother!! SOOOOO glad to have you as a sister-in-law...it was a lonely 20-some years until I finally got a couple of "sisters"!! Love you!
