So I have been asked by my lovely sister to participate in a challenge for the month of July- and by "asked" I mean "insisted, demanded, and blackmailed" (Katie I love you don't be insulted).
I have to come up with a list of 20 things that I will accomplish in the month of July. It is suppose to be things that will somehow enrich my life or make me a better person. I've decided that always doing what you are suppose to is overrated and most of my list is more about things I've always wanted to do and having fun! I say "most" because I couldn't completely rebel... it's just not in me folks.
Without further adieu the list!
- cook 2 meals inspired by a culture that I am unfamiliar with
- fillet a fish (but Brandon is cutting off the head)
- reach out and make a new friend
- reconnect with an old friend
- actually finish a knitting project
- go to church as a family
- plan a surprise date for just Brandon and myself
- exercise 30 min EVERY single day
- find joy in something small
- get up to watch the sunrise
- make a special dessert from scratch
- do something completely spontaneous
- spend 1 whole day doing what I want to do and nothing that I should do
- grow something....and not kill it
- learn to play the guitar...or at least a few chords (it's a start)
- put together an emergency kit
- re-read a book I loved as a child
- do something that makes me uncomfortable
- send a care package to someone in need
- think of one more thing for my list (open to suggestions)
I have no idea how many of these I'll actually accomplish... maybe I should add "be more optimistic" to the list...

That's a great list! I secretly haven't posted my list so I could steal some of your ideas. :)
What a great sister you are, being drug into this and all;) Great list...keep us updated!
Love this list...I think you should add:

- Plan a trip to see your friend, Ange, in Seattle
