As Matt and I were driving back from the SnoCross races on Saturday, we started a bucket list of things that we want to do this summer....
Summer 2012 Bucket List:
1) Minnesota Zoo: This has been on my list for quite some time now and this year it is going to happen! I am sure I went to the MN Zoo when I was a kid with my relatives who live in New Hope, MN but I don't remember it, so now that I live her I want to make sure I visit our wonderful zoo!
2) Valley Fair Amusement Park: Matt loves rides...I am on the fence about most but would love to enjoy the water slides.
3) Back to the 50s Car Show: My dad loves this car show and I believe my parents are planning on attending so we have blocked the weekend off to attend with them.
4) The Great MN Get Together: We go every year and love it!
5) Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure: I am participating...signed up at the beginning of January. See Susan 3-Day Registration. Matt will be my cheerleader along the way.
6) Still need....
We are looking for recommendations of attractions, festivals, events, fairs, etc to attend this summer! Please tell us your favorite things to do in the area over the Spring/Summer/Fall months.

New Years Resolutions
I am not sure if anyone reads this blog but if for nothing else than to hold myself accountable...here are my 2012 New Years Resolutions. I hope that my husband, family and friends can help me achieve these goals.
1) Lose weight and work out at least 3-5 days a week. I am sure this goal is on many people's list but I really want to devote some serious attention to this goal in 2012. I would really like to do the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure walk in August 2012. Working out is really going to be key in achieve this goal. I want so bad to achieve the 3-day for the Cure goal but am intimidated by the fundraising requirement of $2,300.
2) Pass 1 or 2 sections of the CPA exam. I won't say the whole exam in one year but I would like to make significance progress towards this goal in 2012.
3) Save money. I would like to do this through use of coupons, cutting back, and just being more conscience of where our money is going. We made a budget for the first time and if we stick to it, achieving this goal will be possible. Expense management will be key to success.
4) Organization. I would like to be super organized in all that I do at work and at home. With organization, everything seems to go better. I hope to achieve this by organizing our house to make it more useful for us, use of to do lists, and time managment.
5) Be the best wife that I can be to my new husband. I would like to continue to grow and develop our marriage and our relationship. As newlyweds, Matt and I have a lot to learn about marriage.
While working towards these goals, we want to maintain the great relationships we have with our friends and family. As well as continue to spend good quality time with our family as family is incredibly important to us.
I hope everyone has a great 2012. I know I am hoping that 2012 will be a great year for us. Matt and I had a great 2011 so that will be hard to top! :)
