Tough Question?

Last night at Life Group, our "ice breaker" was to name one thing we've always wanted to do. I actually thought this was difficult. I mean, there are lots of things I want to do (i.e. go running, take a vacation (maybe Hawaii or Colorado), convince the rest of my family to move to Texas...) but to name just one? It seems like it has to be big. And impressive sounding. Maybe I just don't dream big. Or maybe I just can't think of things when I'm put on the spot.
Here are a few of the other answers:
  • Take a trip to Australia
  • Hike the Appalachian Trail (in segments)
  • Go to Europe
  • Go Skydiving
Okay, so maybe they don't have to seem impressive.
Either way, now I pose the question to y'all: What is the one thing that you've always wanted to do?

The year of 24

Yesterday was my birthday, and Eisel seems to think that's worth posting about! :)
Thanks for all the birthday calls and comments! I had a pretty good one. J and I went to White Water Bay, which is the water park at Six Flags Fiesta Texas. We only stayed for about 2 and 1/2 hours, but we still had a great time. Last night we had some friends from church over for dinner and just hung out for a few hours. J grilled cheeseburgers, which were great!
Friday night, A&M had us over to celebrate our birthdays. She made us a big dinner and strawberry shortcake. Yum!! We then proceeded to finish off season 4 of 24, which was 6 episodes. We didn't get home till about 12:30, which is pretty late for us! Oh, and they also gave us a 24 magazine for a present. Good stuff!
I found out I get to go to another training class at work this week, and I'm pretty stoked about that. Work is still going well, but it sure does consume a lot of time...
Thanks again for the birthday wishes!
24 is great!

Just in case you were wondering...

No, I have not forgotten that I have this blog.
Soon I should have something worth blogging about.

I am posting just to post. Honestly, I don't have anything significant to post about.
Here is a picture of A and myself at a Missions game last month.
We don't necessarily care about the Missions, but my work gives away lots of tickets, so we go whenever it's free. At this particular game, they were giving away cars. I know what you're thinking "Wow, a multiple car giveaway at a minor league baseball game?".
Heck yes it was! Cuz San Antonio ROCKS!! Some of the highlights included a 1990 Cadillac Deville and a 90-something Ford Escort. It was awesome. Unfortunately, we did not win.
