Summer Bucket List

IMG_4325IMG_4339I can’t believe the 4th of July is this weekend!  Where is the summer going?  This had me thinking about the things I want to do before the cool fall weather makes its way back to DC, so I came up with a summer bucket list.

I’m not above writing down items that I’ve already accomplished just to make myself feel better by immediately being able to cross a few things off.  So here we go …

  1. Beach trip with my family  (Photos are from our trip to Destin, FL!)
  2. Beach trip with my second family (Heading to Portofino in Florida!)
  3. Buy fresh tomatoes @ the farmers’ market (I have yet to find any tomatoes here in DC that compare to the amazing tomatoes I used to get in Alabama – keeping my fingers crossed they are coming!)
  4. Weekend road trip to Annapolis, MD
  5. Attend a Washington National’s game
  6. Paddle boat or kayak on the Potomac River
  7. Grill out with friends
  8. Spend a Saturday at a rooftop pool
  9. Watch an outdoor movie at the Golden Triangle
  10. And for this weekend, watch the 4th of July fireworks on the National Mall

What’s on your summer bucket list?  Let me know if there’s something I need to be experiencing this summer in DC!

Have a great holiday weekend and thanks so much for stopping by!
