30 Before 30 Update

Our weekend was extra boring and it was the greatest thing ever. Sitting around and playing with the boys, couldn't get any better!! That also means its not worth sharing so I'm using this opportunity to do a long overdue update of my 30 Before 30 list.
 

7. Pay for the person behind me in the drive thru 
    This is something I had always thought about doing but of course never did. I know it is a common list item but I chose it simply because it truly is wonderful. What better way to brighten someones day then to buy their food/coffee? Its unexpected and its guaranteed to put a smile on their face. The picture above is of the card I gave to the person behind me, just to say "have a great day"!

12. See Michael Buble in concert
      For our anniversary, C got us tickets to see Michael Buble in concert. I had high hopes and was so unbelievably excited to see him in person! Well, I must say, Mr. Buble DID NOT disappoint. He was amazing. I have been to some great concerts and this one is at the top of my list. He is an amazing singer, this I have always known, but he did something I have never had an artist do before. At the very end of the show, he got rid of his microphone and the music and belted out the last few lines of the song he was singing. We were in a HUGE venue and I could hear him no problem. It was amazing. Completely a capella. That man's got some pipes.

4. Run the Color Run 5K
    I will be honest, I did not run. However, the people in our team who did run, said it was really hard to run because 80% of the participants were walking. It was a lot of fun and I would do it again. We didn't have any trouble washing the color out. The only things I have that are slightly stained are my socks and shoes (though I haven't tried washing my shoes yet). Anyone looking to do a 5K, I would suggest the Color Run!!



Now I have just over 4 years to complete the next 25 things on my list :) I can't wait to cross of more!!

Introducing...

{drum roll please}...

 

I am officially announcing my cupcake business! I'm so excited and ready to take on the world one cupcake at a time!!

 If you read my 30 Before 30 post, you know that getting my business started was on my list. I can now cross that off {it's my first one too!} and start working on more.

Being a stay at home mom, I needed to find something I loved doing. I tried a few things and kept overlooking what I have always been good at: baking. For almost 2 years now, I have been baking cupcakes for fun and by request and have been receiving rave reviews. I never thought it would come so far that I would be able to start my own business. 

I thank everyone who has supported me, loved my cupcakes and asked for more. I can't wait to spread the cupcake love!!!

{30 Before 30}

Happy Monday!!! I hope everyone had a wonderful, long holiday weekend!!!! We enjoyed ours and spent the whole weekend having tons of fun with family and relaxing. :)


During my full month off of blogging, I had plenty of time to think about what I could blog about.  One thing I have learned now that I have been blogging is that it is kind of intimidating. What to write about, is it good enough, how much personal stuff should I share, how can I get more followers asap?! There is just so much to learn and telling myself that I need to blog as much as possible makes blogging no fun, so I decided to not put a ton of pressure on myself to blog everyday.


This 30 before 30 list is a list I have read on other blogs and is something I really wanted to challenge myself to do. Over the last few weeks I have been making my own list and have discovered that it is HARD. Coming up with 30 things to do before I am 30 turned out to be way more difficult then I could have imagined. I'm still not totally 100% on everything but I am pretty happy with it and I'm excited to start working on it!

2. Go to Italy- Hubs & I love to travel and our first stop in Europe will be here.
3. Snorkel with the sea turtles & zip line in Tulum, MX- I've only heard rave reviews about doing this. Plus, my fav animal is a turtle...why? I have no idea, they just are.
