30 by 30 Update

Hope you’re having a morning of snuggles and rocking like we are!  And now, my monthly update…

In an effort to be transparent in my efforts to better myself this year, I thought I’d try to update you all once a month to let you know how it’s going.  Here’s my status as of today (only 10 months to go!):
1. Go to Paris – went in April!

6. Throw a Christmas Party – caterer is booked
