Summer Bucket List

I just looked at the calendar and OH. MY. GOSH.  Summer vacation starts in 3 weeks!!!  I cannot believe how quickly this year flew by!  This year will be a very special summer for us, we will NOT be saying goodbye to WunderDad and WunderBoy graduates from Pre-K to head off to Kindergarten in the fall!  We absolutely LOVE summer time and it is the perfect opportunity for lots of fun family Adventures.  Last year we started a new family tradition with the Summer Bucket List.  We had so much fun we are definitely doing it again this year.

To make it officially a ‘Bucket’ list I found this cute little bucket in the Target Dollar section (if you haven’t figured out by now, I love me some Target and I love me some dollar deals!). We wrote each item from our list on wooden craft sticks with colored markers. I like this idea because it makes it easy to add more to our list later.
