30 Things To Do During My 30's

It's hard to believe that my 31st birthday is one week from today!  It seems like I was just celebrating my 30th birthday!  I've noticed that a lot of people make 30 things to do before turning 30 lists.  I heard about it shortly before my 30th birthday and it didn't leave me much time to make a list, much less to complete it!  Since I missed the ship on that one, I've decided to make a 30 Things to Do During My 30's list instead!

You all know how much I love to make bucket lists for my trips.  It probably comes as no surprise that I'm a huge fan of lists.  (My "Notes" section on my iPhone currently has 578 notes and most of those are lists of some sort... yikes!)  This concept intrigued me and it seemed like a great idea to make a longer term bucket list of sorts.

I started off my 30th year with a Rapunzel and Tangled themed birthday party.  Instead of looking at turning 30 with dread, I chose to look at it as the next adventure.  I've always identified with Rapunzel's sense of wonder and how she always has a dream.  I think this list captures that philosophy and spirit.

I've included a few things I've wanted to do for a while now but that I haven't gotten the chance.  I've also included some of the things from my ever-growing Disney Bucket List (which I really should type up at some point).  Ok, the first two things on the list I've already completed.  But I've already been 30 for almost a year, and those two things would have definitely made the list anyways!  Without further ado, here it is:
