4. To retirement age
5. To the holidays it's my favorite time of year
6. To paint our master bedroom
7. To go fishing again with my boys
8. Growing old with my hubby & seeing Jess grow up.

8 Things I did yesterday:
1. Had some guacamole
2. Watched Kate & Alley
3. Take my son to school

5. Took an awesome pic of the sun breaking through the clouds
6. Ate some strawberries

There is more to the list & rules to the tag. But since I don't post much I figured I would leave some mystery and use it on a future post.

I was also awarded with the Makes My Heart Smile Award from Angie over at A Simple Kinda Life. Thank you Angie.
