Summer Bucket List 2014
My favorite time of year is a toss up between Christmas and summer…in my opinion both are pretty magical! And even though I am no longer a teacher I still treat summer as one long twelve-week vacation just waiting to be filled with adventures. My Summer Bucket List includes traveling, fitness, cupcakes, DIY projects, and more…all the things I love! I probably won’t post about all of them on the blog as I check them off the list, but if you follow me on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook you can keep up with my summer on the move!

I love these ideas! I still need to create my own summer bucket list. I did last year and I just haven’t gotten around to it yet this year. 🙂

Can’t wait to see your list!

Hmm, I never thought of a summer bucket list but I like the idea! I could get the kids involved and we’d have a family one. Nice!

You should definitely put a list together!

Loved this as it reminded me how quickly the summer passes. We need to be intentional to enjoy the days. It also reminded me of the great joy we receive when we slow down & do simple things like grab a stick & roast marshmallows. I am glad I visited from the SITS this morning. Have a great weekend & a wonderful summer!

Thanks for stopping by! Summer passes by way too quickly! Right now it feels like there are 12 glorious weeks stretching out in front of me and I know that I’m going to blink and it will be the middle of August :/

Great list! I’m wondering what you’re going to do that’s really far out of your comfort zone. I would also like to try SUP once.

I actually have that one planned but it’s not ready to be shared yet in the blogging world 🙂 I’m hoping to be able to post all about it at the end of the summer!

Awesome list! I may have to borrow a few of those:)

Feel free to borrow as many as you want!

What a great list! You’ve inspired me to start my summer bucket list. So far I have some day trips, going to an outdoor concert and spending time on the lake.

Awesome! I hope you’re able to brainstorm a fun list!

Such a great list! I’m turning 30 this summer (in exactly 1 month!) and I’ve just been feeling such an itch to dive in and enjoy every minute of summer…to get outside, take day trips, read books on the beach, have friends over for bonfires…Thanks for the summer inspiration!
{Stopping over from Sits Share Fest!}

Thanks for stopping by! Definitely dive in and enjoy summer! I turned 31 this year and am all about embracing life this year…and it’s been pretty amazing so far!

Love the summer bucket list idea! We have one as well hanging out our fridge. I notice you have some personal ones too. Mine are all for my kids, but you’ve inspired me to create a bucket list of my own. Found you via SITS 🙂

Thanks for stopping by! The list is definitely a mix of family and personal and my goal this week is to get the list hanging on our giant chalkboards!

These are all some really good ideas. I have no clue what would be on my summer bucket list. Now you have my head rolling wondering.
jmdenouden@gmail.com
Thanks! You can search for some great ideas on Pinterest, Instagram, poll your Facebook friends, etc!

I ADORE your summer bucket list! It sounded so east coast (where I was born) that I had to see where you are from – and I was so surprised to see SoCal!!! I lived there for about 5 years in Santa Monica (which I miss so so much) and I use to LOVE the Orange County Fair (for the food. Especially fried pickles!).
I had no clue what a “plank challenge” was until I visited here and I’m totally going to try too!! Going to follow along on bloglovin’ because I need some more California beach in my life!
jmdenouden@gmail.com
I do live in SoCal but I’ve only been back here 18 months after spending seven years on the East Coast! Happy to have you following so I can share my California beach life with you!
