summer bucket list

orangeluck · June 2011

Just curious what you're hoping to do before the end of summer; fun stuff and chores too. I feel like I come up with stuff to add to mine daily

orangeluck · June 2011

fun stuff:

survive swim class, roast marshmallows, finger paint outside, organize block party, visit the water front, go to the zoo in the evening, build a tent, walk to get the Bee every week, play at a sandy beach, play hookie from work, entertain outside more, bake on Sunday mornings

chores:

paint and organize inside garage, paint closet doors in bedroom, refinish twin bed and bookshelf, power wash deck

Way too much and not enough time!

We'll be on vacation in mid-July and we plan on taking DD on her first boat ride and to an aquarium in Alex Bay.

Take DD to the SYR zoo (and our local zoo once or twice!)

Start/Finish the nursery

Clean out the garage

Finish landscaping project

DH also wants to tear down our deck and fence, but I think that might have to wait until next summer.

I haven't really thought about it. But...

lots of trips to the river for dinner and ice cream at Mississippi Muds
weekly trips to the farmer's market
taking E on his first boat ride when we go to Sylvan Beach in a few weeks
going to the drive-in, both with Evan, and alone for date night
using the rotisserie that came w/ our grill, which we haven't even opened yet!
making homemade jam/jelly... maybe canning some other fruits/veggies
infusing some alcohol w/ fruit and making lots of fun cocktails!
fix the siding on the back of the house that is cracked (and has been for 3+ yrs)
wash all my windows outside

Chores:

Paint stair railings, finish sprinkler system, rip out bushes along front of house, replace with new landscaping, fix swingset (playhouse up high needs new railings), also finish some projects (like dig out root balls for a couple bushes).

With the kids:

Berry picking (all kinds), apple/pumpkin picking towards fall, fireworks, swimming, visit some old friends that have kids too (that live a couple hours away), visit LI, go to the Cape, boating, probably some kind of summer camp program (again!).. there's more but I can't think of it off the top of my head
