Summer Bucket List Tag

29 March 2015


Hey :)

  Yeah, so obviously it's not summer yet.  The snow's all melted, but there's still plenty of cold air left.  Too much for comfort.  So I wanted to - you know - kinda do a summer-y post, to cheer me up, and maybe you too.  Natalia over at All These Little Things  (definitely go check her out if you haven't already) made up this tag, and since it's all about summer, well, I decided to give it a go.  Since probably for every single summer the past couple of years I've wanted to do all this great stuff in the summer and never got around to doing anything, I thought it would be a good idea to put it all into one pile and then sort it out from there.  

 So I present to you - Summer Bucket List Tag =)


and is that GIF not the best thing ever???



|| r u l e s ||



||   Write 15 things that you want to do this summer (if you can't think of 15 that's ok) and publish it in a post.

||   Insert this picture 



||   Nominate 4 other people to do the tag.


||  HAVE FUN!







Personally I think this would really fun, because I'm huge converse fan and I've never had a pair of white converse. White shoes tend to show dirt a lot more, but they also go with pretty much any outfit, so there are pros and cons I guess.  (xD Did you notice that? Pros and Cons? Converse ;P)



YES. YES. YES.  How was this not on my bucket list before?  I think I did this a long time ago, like five years ago, so I don't remember much, just screaming and excitement.  But I definitely want to try this out this summer, and document the whole thing.  Now that would be fun.


So these two kind of go together, but not really.  I've never slept a full night out under the stars, and I think that would be awesome.  I mean, wouldn't that just be epic?  And a meteor shower would be pretty amazing too, I think.  The sky is beautiful, and to watch a meteor shower would just be mind blowing.


Basically I would be ready to have an unforgettable adventure any time of the year, but summertime is probably the best time of the year, since the sun's apt to be out and the weather would most likely be warm.  I CAN'T WAIT.


So, I guess you could say I've always been a pretty big garden person.  Or a picky garden person.  I love having gardens and growing things, but my gardens usually aren't overflowing with flowers.  Most likely weeds and spinach.

But since gardening is a summer thing, I can't wait to do that this summer.  And hopefully this year I'll be able to keep it weed free.  Yeah, maybe.  Last fall/end of summer I did a kind of catch up on my life type of post where I posted a few pictures of my garden... Remember? (link here)


Oh yeah, this would be great.  I think I did this a long time ago, at a VBS or something, but tie-dying shirts is definitely something I would love to do.  It's just so summery.


There's this show called Cake Boss that follows the lives of the people that work at this bakery, and they make all sorts of crazy cakes.  From sharks to cars, they make literally everything into cakes.  Which is pretty amazing.  I think it would be pretty fun to try my hand at it sometime, just to see if I'm any good at cake decorating.  And if I'm not, hey, it'll taste all the same once I eat it =)


It's just a summer thing, you know? It's fun.


Last summer I had a lot of good times, and though I did get to snap some of those moments with my camera, I want to make a summer scrapbook type of thing this year.  And have little captions with what's going on beside the pictures.... Just for memory's sake.  It'd be really fun to look back through later and remember everything if you ask me.


I've started on this attempt many times, but I've always stopped sometime around Exodus and Romans.  So I'm really hoping to just buckle down and finish it at least once this summer.  That would be amazing ♥



Wouldn't this be so fun? Last summer I was at my friend's place and we found a balloon that had floated onto their property and had this note to visit this Facebook page to find more information about something and bla bla..... Whatever.  But you know, to write something inspirational and let it go would be pretty awesome....


Oh yes. This would be amazing.  I've done this before - been caught in a flash storm and it's honestly one of the best feelings in the world let me tell you.  And I'm talking about June - August storms here.... I'm hoping I get the chance to experience this this summer, and I really can't wait for that sensation again. ♥  Oh yeah, and I did a post on flash storms like a looong time ago, so if you'd want to check that out, it'd be great, you know =P (link here)



Hmm, and I guess I'd nominate anyone that wants to do this, but if I have to choose four here they are:

Jo
Chloe
Mint
Lydia 


I hope you guys liked this post and have a great week =)
autumn

||  Oh yeah, and I think I might do a follow-up of this post in like maybe August.  Just to see if I got any of these done or if I got something else on my bucket list done.  So yeah :)

  3. Such a great post idea! I want to do this-- I'll try to schedule a post around late May-- before I leave for vacation (which means little/no wifi connection, darn)!

    xoxo Morning

  4. Great bucket list! Dancing in the rain is amazing, and tie-dye is really fun too! I think you'll enjoy those :)
    I've always wanted to read the Bible cover-to-cover....I'm starting with the New Testament, though. I'm somewhere in the middle of Luke. Maybe I'll make it a goal to make it to the end of John by the end of summer! :)

    1. Yeah, they are really awesome :)
      That sounds like a great goal! I think I might be in Acts, but I jumped ahead to Revelation. I'm not really that good at reading every book in order.

    1. xD Yeah, we just got out of winter, so I'm pretty pumped for the warmer weather =)

  7. I really want a pair of converse too...the challenge is convincing myself whether getting white is the best choice. Like you said, there's both pros and cons to white ones.
    I'm almost done reading the whole entire new testament which has taken me about 3 months, but I can't say I'm overly thrilled to have to read the entire old testament...those passages in Numbers just are not interesting :/
    Good luck this summer, I hope you complete some of these off of your bucket list!

    1. Yeah, that's true.... really true. They go with anything, but they show dirt like crazy.
      Haha, yeah, some of those OT books are a little hard to read. But they are still pretty good.
      Thanks, girl =)

  9. Ahh I can't wait til the summer holidays, which is in December for us :(. Last year my friend and I had a bucket list of sorts and it was awesome. I love the memory book one on yours. Putting together photos of amazing moments into a book sounds like the best memoir of snap shots of the moment. I think I'll be doing that too ;) You should make one of your summer. Capture every one of the activities on this bucket list and turn it into a memory book.

  10. This is a great list! I tried learning how to decorate cupcakes once...I was terrible at it. At least I had comfort knowing that they would still taste good. :) Hope you have a truly AWESOME summer!

  18. Hehe I feel special cuz people love the GIF and the post idea ;) I hope people acknowledge that though, even though I'm just a beginner bloger :(
    I actually want to do some of these things as well, like read the bible cover to cover! Oh and funny you mention, I just bought my white converse two weeks ago. They're kinda dirty but they DO go with everything and I can always wash the dirt away ;)
    Thanks for doing the tag Autumn and I'm happy it will be passed on!
