Our 1 Year Bucket List // 2017

Back in January, Dan & I came up with a 1 year bucket list - things we want to get done within the span of 2017 {which just so happens to be our 1st full married year together}.  We wanted something manageable, with both fun & more serious goals, that we know we can actually get done in 12 months time.  This is our list, which resides on our fridge to help us keep the focus...

Laura & Dan's Big Adventure: 2017

☑ Go camping together at least once. {We ended up having to do this in our living room, because the temperatures for the last week of December were downright frigid (yep, we procrastinated).  But, we made the best of it & pitched a tent in our living room next to our then undecorated real Christmas tree + put on a campfire courtesy of YouTube for authenticity - & yes, we're counting this little indoor adventure as camping!}

☑ Visit at least one new state. {Arizona!}

☑ Take an amazing anniversary trip together. {Our Arizona trip!}

☑ Finish the F260 Bible reading plan. {This was a plan we started at our church & it really got us into God's Word together.}

☑ Continue work on the debt snowball plan. {We paid off one thing!  Just two more to go!  Read more about our story here.}

 ☑ Check off at least 1 item from each of our personal bucket lists. {Dan: Visit the Grand Canyon. / Laura: Explore a slot canyon.}

☑ Find new ways to serve Christ together. {In 2017 we taught the kiddos at our church on Wednesday nights for the 1st time + we helped out with VBS, the Easter egg hunt, & the fall festival.}

☑ Continue adding/maintaining new family traditions. {We did lots of this!  Some were new & some were continued (after all, we only celebrated year one of marriage in the fall of 2017).  Click here for a peek at some of our traditions!}
