Very good approach. 90%+ of your typical yearly return is determined by asset allocation and VERY LOW EXPENSES. Small cap and Value tilts are also important to boost returns. Capitalism works over time. Vanguard REIT fund is also good (NOT private non-traded REITs-- these are typically riddled with problems). Be careful with your bond fund time horizon (shorter is better with projected rising rates). Good luck to all.
