24. Create a will with Garrett
25. Read the Book of Mormon in 1 month
26. Frame at least 4 pictures of ancestors and hang them somewhere in our house
27. Have complete 72-hour kits for all of us
28. Host two themed dinner parties (holiday, or a country)
29. See Abbie M., somehow! (meet up in NYC??) :) (Or maybe Palmyra?)
30. Make a cleaning schedule and stick to it for at least 2 months
31. Give away a quilt here on the blog

34. Host book club
35. Play Jon Schmidt's "All of Me" on the piano for an audience (at least 6 people, nothing formal)

37. Make oversized envelopes like this and write love notes to my kids every day for a whole month
38. Teach Abby to read
39. Organize my spices... replace the ones that are old and get rid of the ones I don't use (um, I still have some with my initials on them, meaning I had them when I had roommates at BYU)
40. Make this homemade memory game (or something similar) for something quiet for the girls to do at Church
41. Be together with my whole family (parents, siblings, in-laws & kids) and get a nice family picture
