27 THINGS: ROUND UP!

Sunday, December 29
6. buy a pool pass and take my little fishy 3x a week this summer. the independence city pool is amazing, the summer heat in our non-air conditioned apartment is unbearable, and my boy loves the water, so this is a no-brainer. we went swimming ALL THE TIME and it was one of the best summers of my life, hands down. i love my little fish!

 11. learn to make a killer cheesecake. it's the hubby's favorite and i want to make it better than anyone he knows. i'm always looking for new ways to seduce him ;)  it took me all the way until thanksgiving to get to perfect, but it was worth it. THIS cheesecake rocks. especially with homemade strawberry sauce on top!


13. find the perfect shade of red lipstick and rock it. tell me, what do you love?  i discovered that i don't look great in any red lipstick. seriously, they were all wrong for me. but i found this one in rose elixir and i LOVE it! i'm addicted. pink is more my color apparently.

15. learn spanish. i've half-spoken it long enough, it's high time i buckled down and learned it for real. like conjugating verbs for real.  i studied, and watched spanish sesame street with luc, and worked on my conversation skills a lot. i think it definitely helped, i'm more confident and i understand more. but i still have a long ways to go- this will be something i'm always going to have to work on, i think.

19. throw a super hero birthday bash for luc's first birthday. maybe a super hero pool party? i'm already excited! BEST FIRST BIRTHDAY EVER! i might be biased :)

23. explore amish country, pick fresh strawberries at ridgeview farm. my mouth is watering already!
we missed the strawberry season, but we did do a lot of amish country exploring around walnut creek, berlin, and hershberger farms. so fun and such great food!

25. index 500 names. i love history, i love individual histories. i want to spend some time unearthing the histories of others while i record my own. this was really fun, and so easy! i'm going to keep this up in 2014, for sure. it's really amazing to find these names from so long ago and give them a chance to be found by their posterity.
