Christmas Wishes

This time of year I always get philosophical and think about some of my greatest wishes and desires. There is the usual; wish to do some things on my bucket list, go on some grand vacation, visit with family I have never met, go exploring, etc etc...
What is on your bucket list?? I call my list Twenty Wishes, which I got from a Debbie Macomber book I read. Do you realize how hard it was finding 20 things to put down on a list? The first 15, 16 were pretty easy, it's the last couple I really had to think on for WEEKS!
I have yet to do anything on my list. Number 7 on my list is to help someone in need. So, my goal that I want to set into motion for next year is to bless at least one family, have a dinner for friends/strangers, whoever. I want to spread some Christmas joy!

Here is my Twenty Wishes:
  1. Learn how to ballroom dance
  2. Take dressage lessons
  3. Road trip to ghost towns around the U.S.
  4. Safari in Africa
  5. Enlarge and frame my pictures
  6. Get together with old friends
  7. Help someone in need
  8. Do a dude ranch experience
  9. Go to a Parelli workshop in Colorado
  10. Go back to school
  11. Buy a vehicle I want
  12. Get another tattoo
  13. Not care what anyone thinks about me
  14. Volunteer at an animal resue
  15. Volunteer at the kid's school
  16. Learn how to line dance
  17. Drive a Dodge Viper
  18. Go to a national horse show
  19. Meet someone famous
  20. Have my dream home

  2. I like it! Keeping track of your "wish list" is sometimes harder then you think. I finally just crossed off one of my wishes this year by visiting Europe. Hoping to do some more traveling this year... and seeing more family! Speaking of which, I'm planning a quick long weekend trip to WA in January. I don't have exact dates nailed down just yet but I'll keep you posted. Merry Christmas Heather! Miss you! xoxoxo Jess L.
