Our Summer Bucket List for #HappyFamilySummer
Who is ready for summer? I know that I am. I am really enjoy this phase in my family’s life, where I am not physically exhausted from taking care of my kids or emotionally exhausted by the issues that they are facing. This summer is very special to us, as it will likely be the last one that we have in the States for years. Last week, I was reading a post from amy friend Jennifer Patrick of Still Living the Dream titled “Summer Bucket List.” I was intrigued by this challenged hosted by Our Happy Family Movement, that my family decided to join in.
At brunch today, we also held a family meeting to discuss what would we like to do this summer before we explore the world. I have to say it’s amazing to hear what the kids want to do this summer, and I have to admit that I look forward to making these memories too! Instead of talking about what we would like to do, we are going to do them! We will be intentional about our time together over the summer. I look forward to looking back at the end of August and seeing how much we have grown together.
Want to join in on the fun?! Sign up for the Summer Bucket List Challenge and make sure your family has the best summer ever too! P.S. If you want to share photos on social media of your summer bucket list, use hashtag #happyfamilysummer so we can share in the fun! Follow our pinboard here, where I will post pictures capturing our challenge. 🙂

What a fun list! We have going to the beach too & I know my son would have loved a Star Wars marathon (maybe it’ll be a bonus!) We’re having a blast checking things off our list too!
