Summer Bucket List

     We all get really excited for school to be out and summer to start. Although once it's here, we get bored. No more dance, no more school, no more scheduled anything. We love to stay busy, so Ally had the brilliant idea of composing a summer bucket list. Our goal is to complete all the things on the list from April until the first week of August when I start college.

Summer Bucket List - 2013

1. Draw a mural with street chalk in the middle of a street in the middle of the night. 
2. Bonfire! With s'mores of course. 
3. Town-wide scavenger hunt. 
4. Compile a list of movies we've always wanted to see, and watch them all. 
5. Go bowling.
6. Water gun and balloon fights. 
7. Have a themed dinner party. 
8. Lake day! Build an EPIC sandcastle. 
9. Catch fireflies and put them in a jar. 
10. Go to the fair and eat a lot of fair food. 
11. Play flashlight tag. 
12. Learn constellations, then lay on the trampoline and find (or pretend to find) them all. 
13. Leave a note on someone's car window. Not a creeper note. A nice note. 
14. Celebrate a foreign holiday. 
15. Climb trees. 
16. Get snowcones! But only the grossest sounding flavors. 
17. Make projects from Pinterest. This is a "no duh" for us. 
18. Light a dandelion on fire. Supposedly, it's really cool. 
19. Make water pinatas. 
20. Play badminton. 
21. Dye one strip of hair a crazy color. 
22. Go to Build a Bear and... build a bear! 
23. Pick out an outfit in a magazine to recreate from Goodwill. 
24. Make popcorn the old-fashioned way. (This would go well with #4.)
25. Make a house of cards. 
26. Play ding-dong-ditch but leave gifts for people! 
27. Play a life-size game of Slenderman. 
28. Photoshoots! 
29. Go to a golfing range. Fail. Then laugh at our failure. 
30. Find a car that has epicly failed at parking. Draw them their own personalized spot with chalk. 
31. Fill water balloons with pudding and/or jello. War!! 
32. Body paint on a large canvas. 
33. Play messy Twister with paint. 
34. Make bacon milkshakes. (This is inspired by the boys in our youth group. Talk about bacon obsessed!)
35. Braid flower crowns. 
36. Homemade ice cream! Oh. Yes. 
37. Go geocaching. 
38. Catch turtles and have a turtle race! 
39. Fly kites. Optional: Sing "Let's Go Fly a Kite" from Mary Poppins.

That is our list! We're going to be blogging on them as we check them off. Oh, and we'll be adding to the list. If you have ideas you'd love to see us do - comment!!!
