Bucket list 2011

Alright - here it is, no turning back -
a fresh start :)

Like I said, some are embarrassing and some are wayyy over-due(the numbers that are bigger than the others), ...It's just time to face the music.

1. Legally change my last name changed to my married name - it's only been six months...
2. De-clutter - everything
3. Go fishing

4. Take better pictures
5. Get a tattoo
6. Register to vote - eek... I know, I know-that will get taken care of this year
7 . Meal plan better
8. Save more cash money
9. Get to know my fellow bloggers/followers better
10. Comment more on my posts and other's
11. Make another step up in my job - more responsibility, more money
12. Be a better friend - in all aspects of the word.

13. Get better listening skills - and not talk so much
14. Take more road trips with the hubs - near and far
15. Stay a night at the beach
16. Go camping with the family
17. Eat a Trophy Cupcake and take a shot of the tequila we bought on our honeymoon - on July 24th <3
18. Spend more time outside
19. Send out our 'thank you' cards from the wedding - I am SO sorry about this one, but if you were there, they will be on their way soon
20. Learn how to bokeh - taking pictures that look like this

21. Take my sister to Forks, WA - that's right Hanner :)
22. Get pregnant - at some point in the coming year
23. Become more self confident
24. Get a handle on my anxiety - mostly at night time...

& last but not least?

25. Move into a house - preferably on a lake :)

Well there you have it! 2011 has some big shoes to fill, 2010 was pretty great... but I know it's already up for the challenge! Hopefully I can continue thinking of more and adding them accordingly.

  2. I'm with you on 20! It's tough to learn to take fancy pictures! All of your lists sounds great! I'm also trying to get to know all my blog friends better this year too. And good luck on the getting pregnant! I did a week-by-week of my pregnancy in my blog if you ever need to compare symptoms or want random pg facts!

  4. I love this list! And I'm totally excited about #22 :o) It's hard not to get discouraged if it doesn't happen immediately, so I hope when you want it, it happens rights away! And for #1, I totally ended up doing it through the mail because 1-I live in Pullman where you can't do half that kind of stuff, and 2-I didn't have to deal with people/lines. So much easier!

  8. Amanda, I love your list! :) There are a couple of things that I need to get done by the end of the year. I'd like to take better pictures too. I will hope to one day get a big-girl camera and maybe learn how to use it. Haha.

    Going to try to get pregnant this year? Yay! Can't wait for it to happen. Hehe. <3

    P.S. I love your new layout, super cute. I don't know if I said that in a previous comment. :)

  9. Love your list! Especially the "go fishing" part. Made me grin, hehe. :)

    I want to learn how to do bokeh too! I can do it by accident with my crappy phone camera, but other than that... no sir-ee. I've looked at a couple tutorials, and it just doesn't make sense to me how the photos come out that way, lol. It doesn't add up, hehe. Good luck! Let me know if you have success with it!

  10. Great list! I hope that you accomplish everything on it! I would be lying if I said I wasnt excited about you getting pregnant! I hope it happens when you are ready for it too! It is the greatest thing ever! Hope we can get closer this year! Love you girl!

    PS I didnt get my name legally changed until 2008 and I got married in 2006 so dont feel bad lol!
