My friend Angela has a great blog called The Need Less Experiment. I've been enjoying reconnecting with her and trying to implement some of the great ideas she has. The premise of the blog is how to live on less and how to create wonderful experiences with her family. One of the posts that intrigued me was called The 2030 List. Instead of indulging her children with all the trendiest and en vogue toys/gadgets, her family is focused on experiencing life together and making great memories. I think that's such a great idea so we've decided to follow suit. (The year 2030 is when her youngest child should finish college. Same goes for Nate so I've kept the name!)

Love it, as you know. I missed the 2030 list - it sounds GREAT.
I'll have to think of everything on our list, but a few would be:
- cross country road trip
- plant a garden
- visit Disneyworld
Whimsy linked to you in her post about The Need Less Experiment! COOL!
