I too daydream about a veggie garden. I have started with the basics, but I long for a veggie garden to grow the majority...

i love this series of posts :)

my day dreams are:

- finish up some of the little things that need to be done in the house (hang the curtains in the bedroom, the art in the living room, find a place for my tools)
- get some more tickets for music and theater in calgary
- have various people over for dinner parties, drinks, etc.
- get my sewing machine working again

Losing the last 30lbs. and being able to wear the clothes that I want!

I hope you guys continue to follow your dreams after you have kids. The most amazing thing that my parents ever did for me was to show me the world. Michael and I always talk about people adapting their lives to their children. In a way, I completely agree. But only in a sense that you maybe dust a little more often. Or you don't stay up until 4 in the morning drinking your third bottle of wine. We think that other than those things, your children should adapt to you. We'll take our kids camping when they're in diapers, still go to Summer Breeze concerts on Sunday nights, and go hiking. (with the cute hiking baby backpacks)
My Mom always taught me that children are like molds. And they will adapt to whatever you want them to, but once that mold is dry, you can't change it.

It sounds like you two are really coming to a great point in your lives where you're wanting to see the world for everything that it has. I have felt more inspired in the last year of my life than I ever have, so I know how great that feeling is. Even if it means I have to give up shopping addictions to be able to go on vacation every 6 months. ;)

Ps, oh girl, Pike's Peak is a bitch. Lance Armstrong trains on it. Aka...no normal in shape adult can make it up that beast, in my opinion. When we got to the top (in our cars, minds you, and that drive took almost an hour) People were on the side of the road (also in cars) that had to breathe into bags because they were hyperventilating from the elevation being so intense.
I'm not saying I don't believe in you, I'm just saying you might want to add that to the long term goal list!
But while you're there in Colorado Springs, go visit Garden of the God's. Last Summer when we went, there were people rock climbing all over the place. They were even giving lessons.

Hmmm.

Learn French so that I can convince the hubby to take us to visit his relatives in Switzerland.

Building a garden, complete with an awesome gnome collection.

Arranging a life that is both fulfilling AND contains free time and work-on-the-house time.

Take aerial dance classes.

Take a vacation with my best friend, just her and I.

Get a puppy.

Plenty of "little" things I'd like to do... those are the first that came to mind.

To learn to sew!! That's my big one right now ^_^

day dream ...cover the brick fireplace with glass tiles.

Have you seen www.creativecaravan.net
this may be a good way for you, family & friends to see the world

that camper is right out of my day dreams. Cole and I have been dreaming of Utah for months now.

I love all of the things in your list. And you definitely need to do the veggie garden this year. My bf and I bought a house this past May and put one in and with just a little love and a little care it really went well. I had fresh veggies all summer and nothing tastes better, so go for it!

As for me, it is taking the next year and a half to build my blog and start an etsy shop. Hopefully eventually that will lead to a lifelong job of creating!

Currently on my list of short-term, achievable dreams:

1. Clear up my studio and start making cards and wall art again.

2. Repaint my RAST chest of drawers yellow and change the knobs.

3. Design & assemble calenders as christmas gifts using my bf's photos.

4. Start the collaborative photo + story project a friend & I have been talking about doing.

5. Bake my own turkey this Christmas with a recipe of my own choice.

Thanks for sharing your dreams, it's inspiring!
