I present to you my crazy and highly ambitious bucket/to do list. As an avid list maker, this is one that is constantly changing and growing. Slowly but surely I am continuing to cross items off but another always takes its place. Some of the items on my list are goals, some are dreams, and some I may never complete, but hey, a girl can dream right?
