30 by 30 [my 500th post!!!}

For my 500th post I figured I should do something special and a little different.  So why not share with you my list of '30 by 30'.  It's the 30 things I hope to accomplish by the time I'm 30! Which scarily is only 19 months away {eeek!}  I got the idea from Alison at I Heart Change.  She has her own list and this super fancy button so you can link up with her as well!


So without further ado...here's my list! Completed items are in red.
1. Run a 5k
2. Meet a blogger {V and Ashley Paige don't count...we all went to high school together!}
3. Have another baby {I'm cheating slightly on this since I'm already pregnant!}
4. Go to my high school reunion
5. Go away for the weekend with just the husband
6. Take another long roadtrip with my family
7. Buy myself a special piece of jewelry
8. Find a church I really love
9. Get back into, and stay in bikini shape
10. Buy a really great expensive pair of jeans I absolutely love
11. Watch a sunset on the beach with my family
12. Have professional pictures taken of the family
13. Find a way to actively help Veterans in my area
14. Go to a drive-in movie theater
15. Get a hot stone massage
16. Go on a special all day date with just Little M
17. Go on a special all day date with just BabyC
18. Have a blog clothing sale
19. Read Catcher in the Rye
20. Open a savings account just for home improvements
21. Go away for an all-girls weekend
22. Go to a movie by myself
23. Go gambling in Atlantic City
24. Get another tattoo {maybe...not sure if I really want to do this yet}
25. Decorate a cake using fondant
26. Visit open houses of place I could never afford and imagine how I'd decorate them
27. Go for an entire day of beauty at the spa
28. Surprise someone with a random act of kindness
29. Read the rest of the Shakespeare plays {I read a bunch in college, but want to read them all}
30. And of course...dedicate a blog post to each one as I accomplish them!

    I can't wait for the posts on all of these! I did a weekend away with the girls last year and a weekend away with just the hubs, and they were both FANTASTIC! I highly recommend them. :) Congrats on #500!

    You used my button!! ( That was really exciting, lol.)

    I love your list! I see some of them can be combined. Perhaps hot stone massage, Atlantic City, and a girls weekend are all meant to go together? Good luck with your list. I know you can do all of that, easy.

Spring Giveaway!

First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
