Tiffany at Mom-Nom.Com had a great post recently about her bucket list. Like her, I don't plan to make an exit anytime soon, but thought I should finally put into writing the things I really ought to, or want to, in my lifetime. However, these days I'm thinking a little more short term, so, I'll start with my summertime bucket list like Beth did over at Beth: A Work In Progress. In no particular order...

Good list! I made a couple of photo books for L and he absolutely loves to "read" them. :)
i just put together a bucket list yesterday too!!! great list!!
BE A GUEST POSTER ON MY BLOG!!
JVV here we come...we ought to swap. You guest post here & I'll guest post there. :)
I like your list, and I like the idea of breaking it down into seasonal chunks. Canning is not that hard (at least making jams, I've never canned vegetables). I make fresh strawberry and peach jam in the summer and it is incredible. I make the low sugar variety and you can really taste the fruit. Love your buy local goal as well. Maybe I'll seek out fresh fruits from our farmers market this year for jams. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Great summer bucket list! I've been thinking about making one myself. :)
Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting on my breastfeeding and Friday Favorites/Follow posts. It's so great to meet you. Hope you have a fabulous weekend.

Good list. I hope you achieve your goals. I like your blog title. Very catchy!
I read Mom-Nom's bucket list too and then created one that I posted...great minds think alike!!
Thanks for swinging by my blog - hope to see you around again!
Thanks all. It helps to put lists like this in writing I think...makes me feel a little more accountable!
I like your list! I need to do some of that too -- pray more, go on a date with my hubby, read the books stacked high, write letters. I hope you accomplish it all.
Thanks for following along at Sugar Tails. I look forward to getting to know you!
The whole idea of putting together books of my photos is overwhelming! Eek! I take too many.
Thanks for stopping by and offering your support. My list got me down, but writing about my grandmother perked me back up.
That seems like a great list! I just had my daughter put together her summer bucket list and was amazed at how little it takes to make her happy - which in turn made me very happy as I think we can accomplish just about all of it.
I guess I should make my own now. Interesting, something to ponder...
Love this list... AND I think I need to steal the idea! ;)
These are really great! I definitely need to pray more, make a photo book and update the photo frames in our house as well. Thanks so much for stopping by the other day. I enjoyed reading your summer bucket list. Thanks so much for sharing. :)
