Summer Bucket List

So I started this post back in June 2012 and I am not quite sure where I was going with it, I am assuming I was planning to talk about our summer bucket list which kept us quite busy! We completed about 90% of our 50+ item list. Everything from camping to a watermelon eating contest, a fun vacation at a beautiful lake cabin in Minnesota to going on a road trip to find an old fashioned drive-in move theater (first time for the little ones). We made stuff, visited new places, went back to old favorites and made tons of fun summer memories.

As I write this, it is already cold and snowy in North Dakota. The best part about toughing it out through a long North Dakota winter? The excitement of waiting for another fun, amazing summer. I am already planning our summer vacation plans (camping in South Dakota!) and I can't wait to see the leaves start to bloom, the snow melt away and finally be able to trade in our winter boots for flip flops!
