phew... we've knocked off quite a few things but with only two weeks until school starts we've still got a few things to cross off our list. even though we start school early, i usually keep our list up until the beginning of september so we've got a little more time to finish our list.

what was on your summer bucket list??
if you have a bucket list, what's been your favorite activity this summer?
