Maybe you haven't notice but I love making lists. This one was a little bit harder to make. At around 60 I was pretty much done. I finally did finish it though.
My mom was always really good at having us make long term and short term goals. Hopefully this will keep me motivated in everything I want to do in my life for the next couple of years. PLUS it will give me something to blog (something that has been hard for me these days) about when I finish a task.

Ok so that is really cute and a really good idea. I just might have to copy you. I'm with you on most of those thing too.
I like this one,"Paint one of my walls with Chalkboard paint" .
You should do the magnetic paint under the chalkboard paint also. That would be sweet. I have always wanted to do the inside of my pantry door.
Heretic. Nikon rules, Canon drools.
Thanks Natalie! Go ahead and copy away. I got the idea from another blog, who probably got it from someone else. I am excited to read yours! :)
PTC, I strongly disagree. The color that come out of Canons' can not be beat. But if you want to buy me a Nikon to prove me wrong, I would not stop you! :)
That's so cool. I have a list but never thought of blogging it. Thanks for the inspiration.
YAY you finished it!! I love your list! I chucked at the gilmore girls! I remember when Rachael came up to BYU and got me hooked!

Love your list, it inspired me to make one too! Brad and I spent part of our Honeymoon at the Amara Resort and it was pretty nice. If i go back I will try a cabin-esque place instead complete with fireplace and stuff. But it was really nice! Feel free to come over and watch Gilmore Girls with me, I love them!
Sweet list, sister.
#47 -- Is that really Harry Potter? Or should it be Twilight?
