Summer Bucket List

I love my best friend. I also love stealing her ideas, she is one smart momma.

I have been very excited about this upcoming summer break. It is the summer before my boy starts kindergarten. The summer before an adult other than myself will have more waking hours with him a day than me 5 days a week. The summer before I have to let loose of some of my control.

I really want an easy going relaxed summer. Today, the first day of summer break, I slept until 7. (That is big time sleeping in around here) We also went to the pool. Gotta work on the tan. However, as my BFF pointed out, it also needs to be intentional. So here is my summer bucket list of things to do with my kidlets.

Summer Bucket List

-Pray together every day
-Go to the library once a week
-Make homemade lemonade
-Deliver cupcakes we make to some public servants
-Go to a zoo we haven't been to before
-Camp in the back yard (Elliott is not ready for full on camping, maybe next year)
-Go to the pool at least 3 times a week, weather permitting
-Try out gymnastics for the first time (Ellis and Lainey that is)
-Go to the aquarium
-Spend several days in Chattanooga with family and friends
-Have chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast at least twice
-Have an all day pajama and movie day
-Have lunch dates with Daddy during the work day
-Go on a picnic
-Read through the entire Children's Bible together
-Paint
-Individual dates with each kid
-Go to the drive-in several times
-Go see a play
-Have a milkshake at Reeves Sain
-Go to the farmers market every week
-Listen to live music
-Have play dates once a week at least
-Attend a festival of some sort
-Go on family walks or bike rides often
-Enjoy this time together, we are living in the good ole days right now

This is good. I am such a list person, can't wait to start marking things off of it.
