26 Goals at age 26

Hi! I've decided to go with my strengths on this next blog post. I am passionate about planning and figuring out logistical details, almost to the point of being fanatical. So I will simply give you a list of the 26 goals I hope to accomplish in the next six years, now that I am 26.  These goals are a combination of personal, family, education, and career goals:

1.  Family pictures every other year (2011, 2013, 2015), kids pictures taken every six months.
