Eat a snowcone
Status: Accomplished. And it was delicious.
Try out a new recipe and share it
Status: Accomplished. I made a new chicken recipe and brought it to work to share. It was fun! And reminded me I do like to cook... sometimes :)
Try something new every time I went out to eat
Status: Accomplished. I count this as a huge accomplishment for me! I very much have "normals" for every where I eat. I like it that way. But having to try new things every time I went out made me find some new things I like. So I can have more "normals"! :) haha
Watch a movie outside
Status: Accomplished. I went with some friends to the drive-in. We saw Madagascar 3 and Snow White and the Huntsman. And Madagascar was the better movie of the two, just fyi...
Check the radiator
Status: Accomplished. Some good friends went with me to get ice cream to celebrate my grandpa's birthday! It was fun to let others in on our family tradition and take some time to remember my wonderful grandpa!
Go to Food Truck Friday
Status: Ashley, Ryan, and I attended in June. It was an experience. There were so many food choices!
Back down Ryan's driveway
Status: Accomplished. I did it! All by myself! (sort of...) Ryan may have helped me
Go a day without eating meat
Status: Accomplished. I added this to the list because the day I wrote the list I was thinking about how I eat a lot of meat. I love meat. Going a day wasn't too bad. But I probably couldn't have lasted much longer than that. I lived off of veggies that day... it's a good thing I love veggies!
Do the paddle boats in Forest Park
Status: Accomplished. Thanks to Barb we did this on my birthday! It was SO hot!!! But I'm glad we did it. It was fun for the first 10 minutes (when I didn't have to paddle. haha).
Roll down a hill
Status: Accomplished. My good friend Kristina and I completed this on my actual birthday, right after we played in a fountain and right before I stepped on a bee barefoot.
Sleep on a trampoline
Status: Accomplished. I did this one night alone. And it wasn't as fun as I remember it being when I was a kid. I did enjoy sleeping under the stars. But did not enjoy waking up soaking wet from the dew.
Eat bacon with syrup on it
Status: Accomplished. It was nasty.
Have an awesome birthday party
Status: Accomplished. Dave and I threw an amazing party for our birthdays! There was pool olympics, pizza, cake, great friends... what more could you want!
Go to the temple
Status: Accomplished. I have wonderful friends who went with me to do a session the week before my birthday. I love the temple!
Tye-dye a t-shirt
Status: Accomplished.
Learn to count to 23 in sign language and Italian
Status: Half accomplished. I learned it in sign language but not in Italian.
Take 23 awesome photos
Status: Accomplished. (I think). I never exactly counted how many pictures were taken. But I'm pretty sure there were more than 23. I put this on the list because I felt like I wasn't taking pictures anymore.
Make a photo book
Status: Half accomplished. I started the book online, I just haven't found the time to finish it. But I will!
Catch 23 lightening bugs
Status: Half accomplished. I haven't seen as many lightening bugs this year for some reason. I did catch as many as I could though. Every time I saw one I ran after it. I caught 14.
Do 23 acts of service
Status: Half accomplished. I am marking this as half accomplished because I didn't do a good job of recording my acts of service so I am not sure how many I actually did. I did enjoy looking for ways I could do little or big acts of service for my friends, coworkers, etc.
Eat at Pick-a-Bone BBQ
Status: Not accomplished. This not being completed is not totally my fault. I went there 3 times and the BBQ tent was not there. It caused a lot of frustration and sadness. I will accomplish it though... even though they make me upset.
Take my bike out on a trail
Status: Not accomplished. My bike has a flat tire. And I didn't find the time. But I will fix it and accomplish it... Soon!
Fly a kite
Status: Not accomplished. I'm not sure why this wasn't accomplished... no windy days? not enough time?
I'll leave you with a few pictures from the amazing month I had! :) Thanks to all my family and friends that made my birth month a great one!!!
