Our List


Jennive & I are “list” buffs.  We make a list for everything.  Plan this, plan that.  We think, we plan, we write, we execute.  That’s how we get things done together.  We do everything together.  We are even going to turn 30 together (born in 1984).  Jennive’s birthday is May 19th, and mine is July 17th.  Since turning 28 this year put us one year closer to 30, we decided to make another list!  A list of all the epic things we are going to do together before we turn 30. 

All these things are personal to us.  They are meant to be our own monumental achievements.  In our marriage thus far, we have spent a large amount of time trying to make memories, not just for us as a couple, but for our children too.  Our hope is to document this list through photos and blogging to preserve each activity and life milestone for our future enjoyment.

So here’s our list:
  1. Climb Table Rock Mountain
  2. Go on a cruise (without the kids!)
  3. Visit a beach (with the kids)
  4. Go to a Broadway show in New York
  5. Go cross country skiing
  6. Go skinny dipping
  7. Climb a tree
  8. See a redwood tree
  9. Drive a really expensive car
  10. Eat sauerkraut and bratwurst in Germany
  11. Have baby #4
  12. Speak Spanish fluently
  13. Finish the house "honey-do" list
  14. Pay off all debt (except mortgage)
  15. Visit SoCal
  16. Surf a wave
  17. Teach our oldest son how to play baseball
  18. Go horseback riding
  19. Make out in the rain
  20. Eat a Florida orange in Florida
  21. Catch a fish (in Alaska)
  22. Camp in Yellowstone
  23. Eat at the SkyCity Restaurant (Space Needle)
  24. Hike Mount Timpanogos
  25. Get an article published
  26. Run across the Golden Gate Bridge
  27. Watch a Rockies baseball game (Coors Field)
  28. Plant a garden
  29. Catch a firefly
  30. Ride a bike from one childhood home to another (Rexburg to St. Anthony, Idaho)

Only three rules: Each must be documented with a photo.  Each must be done together.  Each must be completed before 11:59pm on May 18, 2014 (before Jennive turns 30).

Wish us luck :)
