24. Surprise Sadira with something amazing. - DONE!
So Sadira LOVES Yo Gabba Gabba. If you don't know about YGG then you clearly have not been around a toddler in awhile. When we heard that Yo Gabba Gabba was going on a live tour, we were the first to get our tickets. Back then, they were only doing a trial run in a couple cities in the Midwest. At the time, Sadira's dad Brian was living in Columbus,...

to kill a mockingbird

18. Read or re-read 5 of "the classics." - In progress.
Just under two months ago I was doing this. Laying on the beach with a good book, ALONE. My sister proved her awesomeness once again and offered to take Sadira for a walk on the boardwalk so I could get some good beach reading time in.

come sail away with me!
Do something I've never done before---it's not on the list, but SHOULD BE!
22. Spend more time outdoors. - DONE!
Don't I look like a natural up there on the front of that boat?!?!
So this past weekend was a busy one. On Sunday I was racin' for the cure, but Saturday was spent doing something I've never done before....SAILING! It's kind of ironic that I've lived practically ON the Chesapeake Bay for all...

racing for the cure

Do something I've never done before---it's not on the list, but SHOULD BE!
This is Blanca. Blanca is the first person in my family to be diagnosed with breast cancer.
Let me back up and explain.
Baltimore is a city of neighborhoods. Neighborhoods that are made up of communities. Communities with lots of people who become your extended family. I live in that kind...
