30 Before 30

On Monday I celebrated my 26th birthday. Because it was the 26th, it was my golden birthday, so that was pretty fun! Having a birthday on this side of the 20s has got me thinking. What have I accomplished so far in my 20s, and what do I still want to do before the big 3-0.

This list was a lot of fun, and it taught me something kind of cool. I've actually accomplished so many things already, that it was easier to think of goals I've already reached then to think of more. My biggest things on my list are definitely to have some babies and to write a book. Anything else is just the frosting.

Thanks for reading!
