Creating A Summer Bucket List
Last week my friend Jill Krause (of Baby Rabies and Happy Loud Life) posted a picture of a 3-tiered cake with the caption, “That’s a lot of cake for no reason other than #summerbucketlist”. It got me thinking about summer bucket lists -- both as a way to put a little intentionality around what I want my summer to include, and also as a way to figure out fun things for Laurel and Violet to work on during our non-camp weeks. In this week’s Facebook Live I give a little update on my aging lady problems then share what’s on my bucket list. Oh, and I also start something new and happy called The Unicorn Report!
Note: there are a few seconds about 5 minutes in when the Internet freaks out, but then things resume accordingly! And the links to everything I mentioned are below the video embed. Enjoy -- and I would love to hear if you start a bucket list and, if you feel so inclined to share, what’s on yours!
