When you are a kid people always ask 'What do you want to be when you grow up?' so my question for today is what are some of the really big dreams that you have for yourself and that you have with your FH...besides the dream wedding!!.
For myself I really want to finish my masters degree...I have a BA in English (yes I work in a bank) and half my masters done in Brit Lit!! I want to finish my Masters and the go on to get my PHD so I can fulfill my dream of being a college professor. I also want to be a published author. I want to write books!!
For me and FH, the dream there is TRAVEL...Egypt, Ireland, Romania, Poland, Russia, Germany, Australia, Italy...You name it we wanna go!! I want to snorkel in the Fiji islands and whale watch in Greenland!! We also want to buy an amazing home in Brookville someday...have the whole Martha Stewart thing going on!!
Of course one of biggest dreams is to have kids...which we know is going to be very hard for us but we will try everything and if that don't work... Iceland here we come!!!

Well me and my FH both went to culinary school that's where we met and my dream or should I say our dream for us in the future would be to open our own bakery where I could make wedding and specialty cakes and we can have gelato there and then FH could do his ice carving as well!

Our dream is definitely to Travel!
Our first big trip in 2007 was to Peru and we had an amazing time.
Our HM will be 3 weeks backpacking through Spain and Italy. He hasn't been there, and I really miss it form my year abroad!
We want to hit- Turkey, Egypt, Israel, he wants to go back to Germany, Iceland, Safari in Africa, Costa Rica, Argentina...the list goes on and on!
We also want to be able to have a condo in Manhattan.....and maybe a kid. He wants to try for one, and I think I can agree to that

FH and I would love to travel and open up a restaurant. He is a chef and I have always been in management. It would be sooo much work so it would only happen 1 if we had a lot of money to invest and not worry if we lose it and 2 if I could take a back seat in the business b/c we want kiddddies!

Our biggest dream right now is for me to get a full time Teaching job! I know once that happens, FH will be at ease that we can really survive on both of our incomes!

Our biggest dream together, and my personal one as well, is to have a healthy and happy family in the near future.

My dream is to finish my master's degree in Speech Language Pathology which I have about 2 1/2 years left plus another 9 months for clinical certification (which I get paid for at least).
FH wants to go to school for architecture since he's already in construction, and he's very creative with that area also He might go to school for computers, b/c theres more opportunity.
Our goal together is to get a house one day (he wants a fixer upper) and make it our own. It's nice to know also that we have the same basic taste. We come from very different places, but we are very alike in a lot of ways. We also want to go to Europe ESPECIALLY POLAND! (That's where he's from). And of course we want kids, probably one because I'm 34 and I don't want to have too many high risk pregnancies. I would like to adopt as well. And dogs too! Lotsa dogs!!!!

Re: ****Saturday 12/4/10 QOTD****
we dream of our beatiful house that we will one day own, with a porch and big beautiful kitchen with marble counters. ~ ok thats my dream but he goes along with it.
Our dream is the have family and friends that we have in our lives now, forever. I hate when people say that they look back at their wedding and they dont even talk to half the people anymore. it makes me think that people are only your friend just to come to your wedding!
and of course travel, and a big bag of cash

Re: ****Saturday 12/4/10 QOTD****
I really want my masters degree...i have a double bachelors degree in business management and marketing but i want my MBA in operations in the worst way possible
FH just wants a degree, he is a chef but luck. He never went to school for it just had a natural talent for it but he has always said he wants at least an AA
I would also love to travel with him, i have traveled alot of places and my FH has only went to the Bahamas.

I would recommend against architecture school- we are a very underpaid profession! My sister who is teaching public school on LI without her Masters (she is in the process) makes more than me- I have a 5 year professional degree and a masters and I am almost licensed!
