Life, bucket, to-do…

I love that so many people have their Life Lists on their blogs – I enjoy seeing what people dream of doing, and sometimes I get ideas for my own list. I am usually an optimistic person, and count my blessings on a regular basis, but there are things I can’t imagine NOT doing at some point:

  • Paris – always the top of my list. I’ve been in love with all things French since I can remember. My friend and I are vowing to go the summer of 2016.
  • Travel the US by RV – I was lucky enough to be a Navy kid. Lucky in that I got to see a lot of this country, and at the same time not enough. I would love to take a year, homeschool my kids and see the amazing country we live in.
  • Take Ballet again – I took classes as a kid, and I remember feeling so limber and coordinated – not like the lumbering hippo I feel like now – lol. This one I can do something about now – I found some free exercise videos on my cable box!
  • Create a photography studio co-op. Shhh….top secret idea!
  • Have a garden – grow veggies, fruit, herbs…I love the idea of being able to enjoy fresh picked produce from my backyard – especially tomatoes!

Well, there’s a few anyway. I think I might make a page just for the list and add to it as I come up with other ideas, I would love to hear what’s on your list in the comments!

Summer Bucket List

With only 2 more weeks of school (eek!), I have been trying to think of ideas for summer fun stuff to do with my boys – I have a cute little notebook I have been adding ideas to, and since I have a bunch now, I thought I would share them – feel free to add your ideas in the comments and I will add them on too!!

(from summer 2009)

  • drive in movie (we’ve been before, but not in summer)
  • go to the beach
  • 3 museums
  • sea world
  • baseball game
  • eat outside more
  • picnic
  • have a sleepover
  • date night ;)
  • breakfast at disneyland
  • slurpees
  • make popsicles
  • go bowling
  • play tennis
  • date night with each little dood
  • make ice cream
  • weekly library trips
  • plant plants and flowers in the yard
  • play in the sprinklers
  • tye dye shirts
  • make pizzas
  • take silly pictures
  • go to the zoo

Some of these things we have done, but not in awhile. I know we probably won’t get to ALL of these, but when i am trying to think of something to do, this list will come in handy!

Your turn!

Weekend To-do List

Does it ever seem like you spend Friday getting ready FOR the weekend? I usually try to get caught up on laundry, change sheets, straighten up, grocery shop – I never knew 2 little boys could consume so much food and laundry in so little time…

 

pumpkins and gourds and squashes, oh my!

Also on the to-do list:

  • I signed up for the food+foto project – I chose baking for my project, and I’m baking today, so keep an eye out for some yummy pictures later!
  • I am working with a photographer on her new logo and blog – can’t wait to see how she rocks her new digs!
  • We are headed to the Disneyland Resort tomorrow for the annual mom bloggers event – can’t wait to see some of my favorite local bloggy friends! We are also celebrating my big dude’s birthday (he’ll be 8 on Wednesday - OY!), but he doesn’t know yet, so shhhhh. This is my favorite time of year at Disneyland. Even though it will be in the 80′s, it’s hard not to get into the Ho Ho Ho spirit!
  • Sunday we’ll be cleaning out the garage since the carpet cleaners are coming next week. I’m always glad when they come, but me + moving furniture = no bueno.
  • Blogging – so much to say, no idea where to begin - I still haven’t shared my trip to the Toyota Plant in Indiana – I met the best group of bloggers there!

Plus I should probably catch up on gardening (my new year’s resolution I think) – I have tons of possibility waiting for me in both the back and front, but I just don’t know where to start – any gardening experts out there???
