That's right, I've now got less than 20 days left of work before three-ish glorious months off this summer. Since my daydreams lately are all about sunny summer days, here's my summer bucket list. I have no intentions on ticking them off as blog posts as we do them, but I'm sure a good chunk of them will end up being shared regardless! Some are just for me, but most are for Sam and Anna to do with us as a family.

Looks like your summer is shaping up to be awesome and BUSY!!! But filled with lots and lots of fun things that will create great memories for Sam and Anna.
I just asked my FB friends what they recommend to put on our bucket list for summer...I will have to reference yours for sure!
Have fun!
Yay for summer! I have to admire your ambition trying camping again after last year although it pretty much has to be a little better this time.
Nearing the finish line of the school year! You are almost there. :) Thinking of you and wishing you an awesome summer!!!
Ok, I tried the "eat popsicles" thing and she mostly used it as hair gel. Maybe we'll go for sidewalk chalk next?
I love the idea of a summer bucket list! I will have to make one now. The finish line is in sight! Congrats on another year down. As a school psychologist, kindergarten teachers are some of the people I respect the most. Those wiggly silly little kiddos are hard to wrangle and teach!
Totally inspired me to make my own list! Thanks! :)
We still have FOUR weeks left! Ugh!
Fun!!! I love how sleeping in is at the top - a woman after my own heart!!!
