Summer Bucket List 2020

We are already 10 days into Summer. How does it feel besides weird?! For the past 5 years,  I’ve been making a Summer Bucket List (with Cooper’s help) so we can be intentional about how we spend time during the Summer together as a family. It’s a great activity and it helps us all figure out what we want to get out of our time. 

Let’s dive into some of my past Summer Bucket Lists, shall we?

Intentions for the Week

Looking to get your head in the game? Tracy from Shutterbean makes a weekly TO DO LIST called her Intentions for the Week. Here's what this week looks like:

 

Intentions for the Week – Week 27 of 2020

Happy Monday, friends!

We had a pretty nice weekend here. I had a lady art date with my friend. The boys did baseball. Casey got involved in a bmx bike refinishing project. I cleaned the house and did a lot of straightening. Oh, and I also did a bunch of gardening. I am not sure we left the house most of the weekend. This week I have to figure out how to occupy Cooper’s time while we work from home. Hoping to get a big batch of stuff done so I can block out some time with my boo. 

I almost forgot! I FINALLY DID MEAL PREP!

I painted these with my camera.

Happy Monday, my friends. Today we’ve been at home with a child for 103 days. WE HIT TRIPLE DIGITS. 

We celebrated my husband and Dad this weekend for Father’s day. I was so busy in the kitchen that I didn’t get pictures! I have to remember to make that happen next time. Dang it. Let’s figure out what’s happening this week. Time to write down my Intentions for the Week-

My Everyday Life Week 25

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 25

What’s in my victory garden!

Pillow fort leftovers. 

I cleaned out my fridge this week and did meal prep! WAHOO.

Cooper always gets extra mints only because he asks for them and he’s cute.

He knows the concept of “Don’t Ask/Don’t Get” more than anyone I know.

My husband made me a hanging planter. I love it so much.

Shasta daisies in the front yard make me happy

.

It’s so weird to experience this time of day during the week at my house.
