Summer Bucket List 2013

It’s that time of year again folks! The days are longer and getting hotter. There is 18.5 days left in this school year! Last summer Ethen and I did a Summer Bucket List – see HERE and HERE.

Ethen LOVED marking off activities. Admittedly we didn’t do EVERYTHING that was on our list. So this year, those activities have been added once again and some fun new ones!

We have two trips planned this summer. One back to California for some fun at Lego Land and the other to Idaho for my mother’s wedding. I also desperately want to take Ethen camping and hiking – especially to Bryce Canyon or Zion National Park. My brother had the great idea to get our friends Felicia and Amari together to go rafting down the Colorado River! So fun!!

So in honor of our tradition I have compiled this years list. I present to you…
