99 Red Balloons

So I've decided on a fun new twist to my 100 goals list. My newest goal is to send off a red balloon each time I accomplish something on my list. I'll write the goal on it and let it off into the sky to harass some poor stranger downwind. I'm pretty excited.
I just got back from a family trip to Seattle and I'm not gonna lie, I wanna go back really badly. It was so much fun. It gave me a little peace of mind that I've been losing as we've all been growing older. Family holidays and vacations are all different as we're growing older, going to college, getting married, and moving out. I haven't been having a hard time adjusting, I've just been looking back on the past and missing it. This trip was just a little bit of the past. My entire family came, including Mark, and we all had a blast. We did the classic things like going to the zoo, and I even made friends with my cousin who I never got along with when we were younger. All in all, this has been a good month so far and I'm hoping to keep it going. :D

Dude, I'm not kidding. The colors on your page give me seizures! Anyway, that was a fun trip. When I saw your Facebook pic (with you and Jordan), I thought you'd found yourself a boyfriend or some such nonsense. Ha! I'd love to go back to Seattle, but I think the freeways are enough to scare me into never venturing there on my own.

When you do this balloon thing, just make sure I'm nowhere near you. :0)

Heehee, yes, I know!! Littering is awesome. Ashley, Adam said the same thing about the picture, so I changed it, hahaha. How embarrassing..... What's so wrong about the freeways on the way to Seattle? I know you guys flew there instead of driving, but I gotta tell you that it wasn't a bad drive at all.
