29 for 29

This list is late in coming. I meant to post around my birthday in October as I wrapped up what I could of the 28 for 28 list, but alas, I fell behind. The new year, however, has inspired me to get this up finally. This is going to be a big year! The last year of my 20's, the first year as a parent, and my 5th year as a wife. This year will see my parents married for 35 years and this year my little sister and my best friend will both begin that journey themselves. I'm ecstatic to be a part of it all. Lotta big things coming up, yup, lotta big things, and a lot of amazing little things too I just know it.
