Crossing it off my list, 5K

10/03/2012 By Bre

3 Oct
So, you may or may not remember my post 
back in the beginning of the year
35 by 35.
Well this past weekend I participated in my first 5k,
with the hubs, 
and now I’m able to cross another
item of my list!
YIPEE.
I included it so you could see the original ๐Ÿ™‚
  1. Make homemade bread from scratch. (Thanks to this fabulous/easy recipe).
  2. Make a successful pie crust from scratch.
  3. Give more generously.
  4. Make a scrappy quilt.
  5. Home school my children.
  6. Make my own piece of furniture. (i.e. Jesse)
  7. Be purposeful in God’s calling on my life.
  8. To not have a “PILE” of “DRAWER” full of stuff = be more organized.
  9. Play the piano.
  10. Instill the awe and love of God to my kids.
  11. Bless a total stranger.
  12. Use our savings account for more than just “keep the change” (start this year).
  13. Repurpose something old.
  14. Run a 5k.
  15. Be done having babies.
  16. Have a fully functional desk space.
  17. Go on another honeymoon – just me and the hubby.
  18. See the west coast (I was born in California).
  19. Be in shape.
  20. Own a home.
  21. Own my dream car.
  22. Take a pilate’s reformer class.
  23. Have new living room furniture.
  24. Coordinate more women’s events/ministries.
  25. Cook.like.Ina.
  26. Experience God in a new way.
  27. Have a green thumb. (flowers)
  28. Also, have a thriving produce garden. (veggies)
  29. Have a successful blog.
  30. Spend a week at the lake with my kids and my husband.
  31. Help people love the space they live in.
  32. Take bolder chances in decorating.
  33. Know the Word.
  34. Go on a girls vacation with just my mom and my sisters.
  35. Go to New York (again), but see central park, Serendipity, and the Plaza Hotel.

After re-visiting this list, 
I realized I was able to cross a few more items from it as well.
#’s 2, 6, 14, and 26.
It’s been a productive year, according to this.
I was so excited to finally have 
the opportunity to take part in this 5k,
and plan on running in it again next year as well!
Here’s to getting things done ๐Ÿ™‚
