In the next 10 years...

here are some places I want to go or plan to do in the next 10 years.
-ALASKA. I don't really care where I go to in Alaska but I know there are some amazing picture ops there :) Anthony has always said he wanted to go there but I thought he was crazy because when I used to think of Alaska I always thought eskimos and igloos, but recently I saw The Proposal and fell in love! So one day we will go there whether its an Alaskan cruise or just stay in the mountains for a week.

-CARRIBEAN ISLANDS. I know most people have already done this or it isn't even a question about doing it but I have never been there and think its just breathtaking.

-GRADUATE FROM COLLEGE. Well duh of course this had to be on my list, but it is really funny to think about the fact that if I still go along the path that I have chosen this is going to take up over half of my next 10 years.

-MOVE TO NORTH CAROLINA. Yes thats right I want to leave this little town in Ohio. I am going to miss everyone terribly but its not like it is the other side of the US it just 10 hours or so. I just feel so at home when we go there. I don't want to live at the beach, I want a nice place in the country with maybe a 45 minute drive to the beach. This is something that I can see myself doing within the next 4-5 years. When JK graduates high school and I have finished up my undergrad at Ohio University.

-3RD WORLD COUNTRY. I feel like going somewhere like this will really make me appreciate what I have and what God has blessed me with. I want to be able to make a difference in someones life and by doing this I feel like I could.

-ADOPT. I don't know if this is necessarily in the next 10 years but I think it would be cool to adopt one child. I would prefer adopting a child from the United States. I feel like there are enough children in the US that need help too. This is not a for sure but I think it would be an amazing feeling.

-3 TO 4 KIDS. Yes I want to have that many kids but that is probably going to be in the next 10-15 years ;)

I am sure I will add more to this at another time or as the years go by but I thought it would be cool to make a list like this and in 10 years look back and see what I really accomplished.
This weekend I am going to The Beach Waterpark in Mason OH with Anthony, Victoria, Chase, Allison and Brian. None of us went on a senior trip to Myrtle Beach so we thought we would just get away for a while and have fun before we all start college. Allie leaves in August for Ohio State, she is going to be a real BUCKEYE!!! I can't wait to go visit her. Brian, Allie's bf, is already attending Ohio State and he graduated last year. Victoria is going to Otterbein which is in Columbus also and Chase is going to Ohio State Newark Campus. My best friend Jillian is going to Miami, I am going to miss her so much! My other friend Aubrey is getting married in Septmember so I don't know how life is going to be for her after that. So its kinda scary how we are all splitting up, we all have plans to keep in touch but I know how time consuming college is and that we are all going to make new friends along the way.

Next weekend we are going to Put In Bay Island as a family vacation. We are going with my Dads Aunt Karen and her son Jeremy and his wife Jamie. Its going to be so much fun! =)
So there will be lots of picture updates in the next couple weeks.

Everyone have a great weekend and be careful
Love Always
