It’s amazing how much different this year feels from last year. I think the weather changed so dramatically this year that we basically jumped into summer with both feet! Winter practically started in October of last year and seemed to last a million years, so I am perfectly ok with the dramatic change.

To keep up with tradition I am sharing our summer bucket list. Some of these things might look familiar as they were on the last year’s list as well, but I look forward to it each year. :)

Also, I still want to point out that some of these things are geared toward kids as well. I put this little “FYI” out there in case you’re wondering why a grown adult would want to do some of these things, haha.

So let’s jump in here!

Food & Drink

• Make homemade lemonade
• Make cherry pie bars (this has been on my Pinterest page for far too long without having tried it!)
• Make peach cobbler
• Make sun tea
• Buy a treat from the ice cream truck
• Have a BBQ (we’re hopefully buying a grill this year!)
• Make a cheesecake

Out & About

• Feed the ducks
• Check out books at the library
• Go to a farmers market
• Visit a new park
• Try a new restaurant
• Go on a nature walk
• Go to a splash pad (they were all closed last year, so hopefully we are good to go this year!)

Fun in the Sun

• Have a water balloon fight
• Go on a picnic
• Play outdoor field hockey
• Make a rock garden
• Decorate the back deck
• Plant flowers
• Go on a treasure hunt

Rain or Shine

• Go puddle jumping
• Pajama movie night
• Hand-write a letter and mail it
• Play a new board game
• Make a summer scrapbook
• 30 day photo challenge (this is a stretch, but we’ll see!)
• Make a sensory bin (Gryffin is getting a little old for this, but I think he’ll still have fun with it!)

For those who want to make your own, you can also download a blank copy!
