23 things before 24

I've been meaning to post this for a while now. Making goals are good so here are mine for the next year before I turn 24.

visit a national park that I have never been to
learn to hand letter/do calligraphy
be active in a church ministry
see my homegirl in NYC
float down a river
grow vegetables in my own garden
find another source of income... just for fun
decorate the bedroom/house
teach more
grow spiritually
organize my liiffeeeee
enjoy the great outdoors more.
play in a band.
attend a violin workshop/conference
expand my social circle: real life and virtually
make up a recipe ... a good recipe
go outside of the U.S.
learn some web design
take more pictures with the SLR
cleanse my closet
be more physically active
read at least 20 books.
try new things

I figured this would be a good place to put this list since then all you people stopping by can hold me accountable. right? DO IT! You might notice these aren't all goals. Some of them are just things that I want to do! Do you have any goals you've set for yourself or any particular things you hope to do this coming year?

we bought a pool!

charlie gets hot so easily now that it's warming up outside, it's a bulldog thing. so jake and i thought she could use a little pool to lounge in. turns out she is pretty sporty! the best part is watching her ears as she dives in... she looks like she could fly away.

yes, we spoil her.

sweet potato muffins? say no more.

I've been dying to get my hands on Gwyneth Paltrow's new cookbook It's All Good. The book features many gluten-free and vegan recipes that actually sound appetizing. Still haven't ordered it but I found this recipe from the book and made these bad boys. Now I'm really dying to purchase it! Try this one out and tell me what you think. I'll bet you go buy the book before I get the chance to!

Recipe after the jump.

this weekend we gave a go at camping.. in our backyard. backyard camping has to be one of the better versions of camping. better because when a thunderstorm hits at 3 am and your tent starts taking on water, you can head inside your dry house for cover. also, you and friends can gather in your kitchen the next morning to drink coffee and eat crepes. yep. it's good stuff.

spring, is that you?

the weather here in the midwest has been crazy. it snowed last week. apparently it's the first time it has snowed in may in 60 years or something crazy like that. then the weather was beautiful. i think spring has finally come... and i welcome her with open arms.

last weekend i finally graduated from college.

this weekend i will celebrate my 23rd birthday.

this weather couldn't have come at a more perfect time.

wedding photos

we got our wedding photos last week and it's been so fun looking through them. everyone tells you that your wedding day goes by so fast... and they're right. it really is just a blur. it's great having awesome photos to help you relive that day. here are a few favorites that The Mullers took for us.
