100 Things

A while ago David and I came across a truly inspiring blog. An Australian man created a list of 100 things that he wanted to do before he died. Some of the items are wild and some are pretty tame but all of them are fun. Check out his blog here. We decided to put together our own 100 items list to complete as a couple. The goal is to keep life exciting and challenging. As we complete items we will track all of it here on our blog. This list is not complete yet but we are willing to take suggestions to finish it.
