Visiting El Salvador and meeting my sponsored child.

Visiting India and meeting my sponsored child there.

Completing my Master's degree. I finished my MA-Criminal Justice in November 2011.

Completing my mDiv degree. Started this in Feb 2012. New path - new direction - and wow, what a ride!

Find that special someone to share my life with. Not in any rush on this one - but I know it will happen one day.

To actually make it through all 90 days of Tools to Life. I have started at least three or four times, and let life get in the way. (I know, no more excuses.) Started today - July 6, 2012. With all of the other incredible changes in my life, it seemed like a good time to get going!

Spend at least a week on a winter backpacking trip (snowshoe in).
