30 Before 30

Sunday was my birthday. My 28^th birthday. We had a nice relaxing day, just going to church, out to lunch, and then lounging around the house. Recently some of my friends have posted their 30 Before 30 list. It has inspired me to make my own list. With two years to go hopefully I can cross most – or all – of these off my list:
