bucket list

A few weeks ago I made a list of things I want to do before I go. Go where? Who really knows? That is another whole post. But for now this is my list. I've actually got it on the sidebar as well and i'm hoping to get some of these things checked off. All offers to help are graciously accepted. :)

The pure fact that she married me should be the miracle...but I'll go along and try to find another one for her. The best part is that I will be able to experience these things with her...yeah bucket list!

Followed a link from Hairball, and I love this idea.

I love to sew, and an apron (unless you are talking fancy smancy) is pretty easy. Check out some tutorials on the web.

Oh, and I LOOOVE the banner! SO beautiful.
