Ok, moms, we have survived the first full week of summer! I'm not going to lie-it was a rough one here! Not only did we start the summer with a broken wrist-we also started with a 36 hour whirlwind trip with family to PA-which means there's been tons of excitement, playing hard, exhaustion and emotions. It got me thinking about the things that I need to do for myself to survive the summer-and since "it takes a village" I thought I'd share the Summer Bucket List I made for ME!! I'm aiming low (I mean let's face it: #momlife), so this isn't the list to end all lists-but it's a goal to set and try to accomplish!
Date my kids individually at least one time this summer.Read a book-and actual book with pages-not on my ipad.
Make three New Friends-my oldest son's friends are changing as his elementary school career evolves-I'd like to get to know some of those friends' moms too!Meet friends for drinks at least twice.Date my husband once a month.Catch a movie with a friend (and I'm not talking an animated one).Get a pedicure (and turn off all electronics during it).Shopping Day with my mom-we're planning on hitting the outlets all day long! Send the kids to my parents or one of their aunt's house for an overnight stay.Grab a show with girlfriends-we already have our tickets and I can't wait!Burn some energy with a run, work out class, or just running around with my boys.Throw caution to the wind-ride the rides, jump in the waves, get dirty, and laugh more.
Happy Summer!
