Pictures...

For my birthday/anniversary/graduation present I bought myself a Canon Digital SLR, so while I was in Texas I spent some time taking pictures of the hummingbirds that frequent my parents house. They are fast little creatures, so it was a challenge to get more than one in a photo...they are also pretty aggressive when it comes to their food.

Also during my trip I took many photos of my parents for a "now" picture to have at their 40th wedding anniversary party. There were plenty of good ones, but these are the best in my opinion.

Birthday goals...

Wow, where has the time gone?! I just turned 29 on Thursday and I can't believe I'm only 363 days away from turning 30...it used to seem so far away, and now I'm almost there. For the last year of my 20's, here are the things I want to accomplish:

- Earn my Bachelor of Professional Accountancy degree (only 7 more months until this goal is met)
- Get into shape & lose weight (and by weight I mean lose the fat and tone the muscles)
- Start planning for a family (my mom's going to LOVE this one!!!)

Those are the major things I want to accomplish. I'd love to take one more big vacation before we start a family, but we'll have to see how that goes.

Also, feel free to see how I'm doing with getting into shape...I could use the accountability!
