Just for me

My 29th birthday is next month and I'm already starting to have a panic attack about turning 30. I honestly can't understand how I can be almost 30 when I still feel like I should be 20. It has also made me start thinking about what I have accomplished in my life. So just for my own peace of mind and to prove I have not wasted 30 years of life here is my list of things I can take pride in.

Married in the temple
Have 2 great kids
Graduated from college
Started a small business (that I'm currently taking a break from because I hope I'm moving sometime soon)
Home owner
Traveled the world (including 5 cruises)
Changwon, South Korea
Bad Oyenhousen, Germany
The Netherlands
Ensenada, Cozumel, Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, Mexico
Vancouver, Canada
Vienna, Austria
Budapest, Hungry
Venice, Italy (FAVORITE! NEED to go back some day!!)
Bahamas
Jamaica
Dominican Republic
Puerto Rico
Virgin Islands
Cayman Islands
Airports in foreign countries that I count
Tokyo, Japan
London, England
(and the kicker, Paisley has been to every single one of these places with me!!)

The list isn't too long, and I'm sure there are others, and smaller things I wouldn't really put on a list anyways. I now have a huge passion for travel, I love it so much, and look forward to a life time of more travel.

I never really thought about world travel in college, and I certainly didn't believe I would get the chance. The only travel goal I had then was to get to every state before I die (I have been to most, I can't find my map right now but I think I'm only missing around 10). If I knew then what I know now about my life I would have majored in travel and tourism.

Anyway, now when I start to panic about turning 30 and feeling like I haven't done anything with my life I can see I have done a few things in my lifetime. Hopefully the list will grow, and I can have new experiences. I'm also looking forward to adding some great new experiences to my kids lives as well. I love creating family memories!
