Spring Bucket List

Although I am definitely the kind of person who loves to plan things out, I typically don’t create bucket lists for things that I want to get done.  The first time I actually did one was this past Fall, and honestly, it was really great.  It wasn’t something that I went and looked at everyday by any means, but I think that by just typing up a list and putting it out there, it kind of sat in my subconscious and was a little reminder to me to go out and carpe diem!

So, I decided to get one going for Spring.  I know that it isn’t officially Spring just yet, but it’s definitely starting to feel like Spring around here.  So I figured, why not get an early start?  The early bird gets the worm, right?!?

• Spend more time outside enjoying the Spring blooms (already been doing this one)
• Make Irish Brown Bread for St. Patrick’s Day (completed in June)
• Attend the Mariachi Festival (completed on March 13)
• Celebrate St. Joseph’s Day with the Feast at our Church (completed on March 13)
• Go on a Spring Break Trip (went to Florida with my family)
• Have an Egg Fight as part of our Easter Tradition (completed March 26th)
• Grow tomatoes from the seeds that I brought back from Italy (just started them, and I’m already seeing a little bit of green!)
• Have a Picnic (completed in Yellowstone)
• Fly a Kite
• Play with Bubbles (completed in Yellowstone)
• Have a Spring Cleaning Day (completed on March 7)
• Recreate a scene from Singin’ in the Rain during our next rain shower (completed on March 26 during a rain storm in Florida)
• Enjoy more Sunsets with the hubby
• Go Fruit Picking (did a little on March 17 – moonlit nespoli picking)
• Drive out to the Desert to see the Wildflowers (not completed, but unfortunately missed the window of peak flowers this year)
• Plan a “shop till we drop” day to get ready for all of our traveling (completed on March 11)
• Go play Bocce and enjoy some Fried Chicken at the Crack Shack (completed in Palm Springs)
• Haul our Beach Cruisers over to Coronado for the Low Tide Ride & Stride
• Experience a Grunion Run (somewhat completed – randomly say a Grunion on the beach during an early morning run)
• Go out for Taco Tuesday at this famous eatery and then enjoy a beach walk

Do you have any fun plans for Spring?  Just thinking about the change of season gets me so excited!  I can’t wait to get out there and chip away at my list!
