It's that time of year again! (Eeeek! It's so daunting thinking about being another year closer to 30!) As with tradition I make a yearly list of things to do before my next birthday. Last years list was quite epic! I've accomplished a lot of things personally and professionally! I'm doing things daily in my shop and business that I never would have imagined I'd be doing. One thing that I'm realizing never gets done is the traveling items on my list! That definitely needs to change! So here we go!



26 Things Before I Turn 27

1. Get some kind of bus / truck / RV for my shop & A Photo Booth Business (From last years list)
2. Visit the west coast (Finally fly on an airplane!)
3. Road trip to Colorado
4. Eat & Get Healthy
5. Remodel my bathroom ( this isn't a personal goal but it would make me really happy)
6. Start playing piano again (this was on my list last year but I didn't make much progress.)
7. Thrifting road trip adventure
8. Attend more design & blogger conferences ( I only made it to one this year )
