32!

Today is my 32nd birthday! I had so much fun this past year working on my "31 things" birthday list that I decided to make one for this year. I must send my thanks again to the queen list-maker herself, the lovely Andrea Jenkins, whose lists never cease to inspire and awe me. Thanks friend! So with no further adieu, I give you my list of 32 things to do before I turn 33...

2. Make an omelet.
3. Learn how to fire up and cook on the bbq grill.
4. Tear out and remodel my bathroom.
5. Build a swanky new deck.
