the one with 30 before 30: January update

Here's the January update on my 30 Before 30 list!
  1. Finish my wedding scrapbook.  I made four pages, ordered all of the prints I need and have a list of what needs to be done.  Progress!

  2. Learn to bake bread from scratch.

  3. Make digital photo albums for our honeymoon and recent trips.

  4. Develop a recipe arsenal with good go-to meals.  

  5. Re-decorate our bedroom.  We got a new dresser, mirror and bedside tables.  I LOVE them!  Pictures to come once we hang the mirror.  Then on to lamps and other wall decor... 

  6. Invest in the stock market.    

  7. Move somewhere besides a one-bedroom apartment.

  8. Join a Bible study.  We joined a Bible study at our friends' church (Northwest Bible) and we're studying Islam and Christianity.  I'm not sure what we'll do when it ends in a few months.

  9. Take a class on how to use my digital camera.  

  10. Blog twice a week, including updates on my list.  The poor blog was neglected this month.  Hopefully February will be better!

  11. Plan a 30th birthday trip with friends!

  12. See Garth Brooks live in Vegas. We bought tickets for April 21st!  Wanna come with?

  13. Go to a drive-in movie.  We got a Groupon and plan to go for my Birthday in March.

  14. Join the Junior League.  All set!  

  15. Complete a 30-day yoga challenge.

  16. Read the entire Bible again.  On track so far. 

  17. Run a 10-k (or at least a 5-k).  Running also got neglected in January.

  18. Visit Virginia.  

  19. Take family photos with Latte.

  20. Get my wedding dress cleaned and stored.

  21. Visit the Blue Bell Factory.

  22. Go to the Dallas Farmer's Market.

  23. Make a blog book from my first blog.

  24. Sail the open seas (or a lake will do).

  25. Eat at Austin's food trailers.

  26. See Willie Nelson live. 

  27. Have a picture of Latte turned into art.

  28. Touch my toes. 

  29. Read the other Jane Austen novels.  Finished Mansfield Park and Northanger Abbey. Four to go.

  30. Master the art of homemade tortillas.

30 Before 30 honorable mention goals:
  1. Take a Segway tour somewhere
  2. Learn how to use a knife to chop things properly (and quickly).  
  3. Pay off Brian's school loans.  We've got a plan to do that this year.
