Bucket List Update

Our summer has flown by!  Our summer bucket list hasn't had much progress.  Much of that is due to the busyness and the extra things I didn't have planned that we had to do during the week as well, such as Alexis starting gymnastics once a week, Natalie being in therapy twice a week and her skating twice a week.  Honestly, those things have taken up so much of my/our time, the bucket list has taken a back burner.  But there have been a few things that we've been able to cross off:

• Have a Disney movie marathon - During one of the really hot days this week, the girls and I stayed indoors and they dressed up like princesses and we watched a lot of princess movies!  It was a lot of fun!  Notice in the picture that the girls are wearing headbands a little weirdly.... They couldn't find any of their princess crowns, so Natalie came up with the idea to wear the headbands as crowns instead.  A little bit of ingenuity!

• Picnic at the park - Well technically it was a picnic at the beach, but that still counts right??? Maybe in the next few weeks we still have of summer, we'll go to the park for a picnic too.....

• Go putt putt golfing

That's all we've done.  Unfortunately, there are a few things that will not be able to get done this summer.

• Go for a hike once a week... that's only 11 hikes - The first couple weeks, we tried, but the weather was always uncooperative and wasn't condusive for hiking.  After that, I just gave up on this one.
• Get Alexis out of Pull Ups at night - She just isn't quite ready.... :(
• Learn Spanish
• Sew curtains for the living room, dining room, and the girls' room - Hahahahaha I should have known this one was too ambitious.... lol
• Zip Lining with Peter - I didn't realize how EXPENSIVE zip lining is..... sigh.....
• Lose 10-15 pounds - I've tried, but with all the other stuff going on, my workouts (and diet change) have not been what I've wanted them to be, BUT I have lost 5 pounds, so that's not too bad.... 

There are a few others that probably won't get done, but they're not impossible to get done, so maybe with a little focus, they will.
