My Bucket List


We all have things we want to do before we die,
a Bucket List if you will. 
Some things simple,
and some things not so simple.
My favorite girl, made a life list.
And it got me thinking of my own.

I'm calling it my bucket list:


have a family of my own
watch my daughter get married
travel Europe
Live in NYC
do a charity walk for cancer research
Own a house on the beach
take my hubby to Hawaii
start a blog
open my own shop
gain 5,000 followers on my blog, and then 5,000 more
Take my parents on a vacation.
Become Coordinator of my MOPS group
take singing lessons (always been my dream)
Visit my best friend in Kentucky
Take a girls trip somewhere cool
own a passport
grown a garden (without killing it)
have my daughter know Jesus
have lunch with Britney Spears
go to a Stage Couch Country Concert
learn to cook, and LOVE it.
Stop biting my nails
have a personal trainer
live in a home that looks as though you stepped into a Pottery Barn Catalog 
attend a blog conference
have a walk in closet
own a ridiculously expensive handbag
Join a bible study with my hubby
Go in a hot air balloon
Overcome my fear of flying
make my own wine (grape stomping at all)
Be a wardrobe stylist in the studios...once my kids are grown!
at the top of my list?
learn to sew
.......

    So cute!!! I love your list! If you ever do visit KY, let me know I'm RIGHT there!

    I absolutely love the sweet apple frock dress! Learning to sew is on my bucket list too. I didn't get a sewing machine for mothers day but our 7th anniversary is on the 24th. If he knows what's good for him, he'll get me one lol
