The other day, I started jotting down notes of different ideas that I can do with our family, just the kids or as a date. The list kept getting longer, and the ideas kept coming. Obviously, I probably will never get to do allllll of them, but it is fun to dream about all of the FUN out there- and try to think of new things that you haven’t done yet! After my list started growing, I decided it would be a fun blog post to share with everyone, in case you are struggling with fun ideas this summer for your own Summer Bucket List!
This list is just ideas I have come up with for our family, but many are suitable for everyone and every budget!

This Summer Bucket List could seriously go on forever! There is sooo much to do out there in our amazing world. Sometimes we are limited by finances or the area of the country we live in, but many of these can be done by most anyone. In my opinion, simply trying new things is what I love the best.

I have a selfish wish but I want it because I will do the repairs to my house and help shelter animals and people. If I am blessed my bucket list will be long. It is already on my notes in my phone. The first will be to donate for the 2nd recovery group so a dog can have the help it needs.
