Cool list, Jaime! I did it too, but I posted it on facebook since my blog is supposed to be about crafts… š I think I counted 52 things that I’ve done, and three that I definitely won’t do so its not so bad. š
Wow, I love your list.. I definitely share a bunch of these on my own to-do’s.. especially the cool, romantic places you have on here in which to kiss. (:
Jealous about Hawaii!!
