I love a good list, and I've been keeping these sorts of to do/bucket lists since high school. One that I haven't made progress on in about 2 years is my 50 Before 50, but hopefully that will change soon! I find that writing things down helps me to get stuff done. So... here's a glimpse into some of the things I haven't yet done (like #1... embarrassing.) and some of the exciting things we have coming up! My Fall To Do List Create our wedding photo album.
