29 Things

Today I turn 29.  

I believe this will be the first of many 29th Birthdays.  30 doesn't sound like an age I want to be anytime soon.

Anyway - in honor of my (first) 29th Birthday, I'm going to blatantly plagiarize a cute scrapbooking theme I saw in a magazine and make a list of

29 (somewhat) Random Things I Love

...in no particular order...

29. Fruit of the Loom A-shirts, or, as I like to call them, "wife beaters." I wear one for a good portion of every day and sleep in one every night.

28. Vaseline.  It's good for so many things.  My lips, my cuticles, my boy's exema...

27. Emails from friends.  Love seeing that there's mail in my in-box.  LOVE it!

26. Crafting.  Scrapping, sewing, etc. I love it all.

25.  Target - I love being able to shop for patio furniture and kids clothes at the same place I buy my groceries.

24. Lists!  I make a to-do list almost every day and get a major high from checking things off.

23. Picnics in the park when it's warm outside.

22. Indy and Allie.  Really, really great dogs who are amazing with my kids.

21. Green Tea.  Lipton's pyramid bags with mandarin oranges is my favorite :)

20. Family get-togethers. Double points if some type of game is played.

19. A package on my doorstep - especially if I can't remember what I ordered!

18. My camera.  It may not be the newest model, but my Digital Rebel is amazing.

17. Projects, which I spent time waxing lyrical about last week.

16. My Blackberry.  I feel so cool checking my email at the grocery store :)

15. Blogs - my own, my friends, strangers...I'm addicted to them all.

14. Throwing parties.  I want to be a party planner in my next life. For now I'll make do with throwing my own parties every couple months. 

13. A good workout.  Makes me feel like a better human being.

12. My Avalanche.  Best vehicle ever. I never want anything different - even if it did just cost me $700 to have new tires put on.

11. my IPOD.

10. A Clean House.  Can't expect it to last too long, but maybe it's temporary nature contributes to my love?

9. Facials.  Nothing beats a good facial, not even a massage.

8. Mowing the lawn. Especially with my Ipod on.

7. Redecorating.  New paint, new fabric, new accessories...home decor makes me swoon.

6. Cooking.  And eating, obviously.

5. LOST - the best show on TV.

4. Reading.  Nothing beats a good book.

3. Shopping.  I know it's super-typical and girly, but it's true.  Retail therapy is the very best kind.

2. My babies.  So much it's frightening.

1. Matt.  For too many reasons to list.
