26 before 27

So this post may be a month late, but I stumbled across an amazing blog the other day and got inspired for this post....

26 Things to do Before I Turn 27

1. stress less, smile more
2. yoga once a week
3. make homemade Christmas gifts
4. host Summer deck parties with best friends
5. train Dexter to STOP peeing on our furniture
6. watch every James Bond movie with my husband
7. be more productive at work
8. STOP the gossip
9. stay in better touch with my brother, who lives across the country
10. judge less, accept more
11. show my parents how much I appreciate them
12. paint and decorate the downstairs bathroom
13. tell people how I truly feel
14. gamble in Las Vegas
15. learn to sew on a sewing machine
16. eat strictly Paleo for one month
17. read the manual and get better acquainted with my camera
18. clean out and organize our scary basement
19. let my hair grow out
20. spend less, save more
21. redesign my blog...and blog more!
22. do a real girl's get-away weekend--spa, hotel, dressing up, drinks--the full works!
23. start writing a children's book
24. paint and create art again
25. tell the Hubs one thing I love about him every day
26. get pregnant ;-)

I know this list isn't crazy or necessarily exciting, and is by no means my "bucket list"...but they are all real goals that I would like to reach while I'm 26. And that makes me happy.

Original idea found on this awesome blog.
