That one looks real good, but it doesn't show as one of the options I can pick from. With Vanguard is that something I need to set up completely separate. Is that just a different investment plan, Roth Ira.... sorry just not sure about how some of this works.

Do you have an HR department you can talk to? Aside from listing your investment options here, you can talk to someone who can tell you which funds are mostly stocks whether it be an S&P target fund, international fund, etc.

If your fund manager doesn't offer target investments you can still select investments that conform to the target guidelines. Note that for the next 15-20 years, 90% of your investments are in stocks, 63% U.S. and 27% international. Your plan should have offerings in these categories that would allow you to make a similar allocation.
If you have the option of a Roth IRA I would select that. Your contributions will be after tax but forty years of appreciation can be withdrawn tax free. That's a hell of a deal.
