my twenty-tenth birthday

In honor of my twenty-tenth birthday, I would like to enumerate 30 things related to my life...but I haven't come up with things for all of them. If you have any suggestions, let me know!

1 - great husband
2 - wonderful children
3 - number of times I've donned cap and gown for a school graduation
4 - car accidents I've been in
5 - cameras I distinctly remember owning
6 - months between getting engaged and getting married
7 - years I've (almost) been married
8 - years I lived in Atlanta...actual Atlanta address, even
9 -
10 -
11 - countries I've visited
12 - houses/apartments I've lived in
13 -
14 -
15 - quilts made
16 - hours spent in labor for each child
17 -
18 - age of my first "real" haircut
19 - years spent in school
20 -
21 -
22 - age when I got married
23 - states I've been in at some point
24 - months working in a "real" job
25 - age when I had my first child
26 -
27 -
28 - age when I had my second child
29 -
30 - years since my parents heard "It's a girl, and she's redheaded."

edit: I was not married at the age of 22, but rather, 23. The funny thing is that my husband, mother, mother-in-law, and plenty of other people who knew the right age looked at this post and didn't notice my mistake. At least my best friend knows how old I was when I got married...even if I don't. :)

Could 9 or 10 be the number of semesters at Tech?

Happy Birthday by the way... I kept meaning to email you on the actual day and couldn't find time to sit.

Wow, glad I’m still on your list! I was amazed to get a comment so soon. =)
Happy Birthday! Thanks for the sneak peak into your past—it was a fun read. What do you mean by “real” hair cut?

JM said...

Brittny, prior to that point, I had only ever had my hair trimmed. I had bangs and really long hair. I had finally grown out my bangs enough and got it cut close to shoulder length.

Yes, Happy Birthday & great idea! I also love the term twenty-tenth. :-) Those are really neat things you shared. Sorry I have no *great* ideas! Maybe types of food you like or pillows you've had or movies you own or books you read on vacation or photo albums or.....
