53. Send homemade birthday cards to everyone in my family for 1 year

Failed!

August is such a hard month to remember birthdays. There are too many birthdays and I fell behind on sending out cards.

I have no excuse, a message is sent to me a couple days before reminding me and my cards are already made.

Sorry Jex & Isaac, I think I missed you guys.

So here is my plan.

I am going to start over again starting in September and go through August of 2011. (Sshh, don’t tell,  but there are no birthdays in September so I have it made for awhile)

Hopefully, by next August I will be a pro at sending out cards.

26. Cook something new every night for 1 week

This is the week for new recipes!

2 recipes down, 5 to go.

Stay tuned for the results…

25. Go to a concert of an artist/band I've never seen

This isn’t working out for us too well.

First, Bono cancels the U2 concert.

Then, we missed Country Throwdown because of the rain. Which ended up as a night of blue skies just as the concert was starting and we were pulling back into our driveway.

Next, we went to Tim McGraw and sat by drunks. However, this concert doesn’t count because I have already seen Tim in concert.

And just a couple of weeks ago we completely spaced that it was the Toby Keith Concert and missed it completely. UGH! (I can’t say much more than this because I am still too upset.)

Let’s just say it is not our summer for concerts.

My only hope of completing this goal this summer is the Brad Paisely concert on September 24th. Can someone call and remind me so I won’t space it this time?

Sigh.

17. Take Luke to Disneyland for his birthday

We are all booked and ready to go. Can’t wait for November!!
