Summer Bucket List

*UPDATED* ON 7/23/11

There are plenty of projects I want to accomplish this summer, places I want to go, and things I want to do. Last summer was kind of uneventful for me and I want to make sure I "live it up" this summer! So, I'm making a bucket list to refer to in order to help me have a fun and productive summer!

My Summer 2011 Bucket List

1. Go see a movie at the drive-in theatre (never been to a drive-in!)
2. Turn solarium in my apartment into a workable office/den area
3. Paint something for my apartment at Picasso's Cup
4. Clean out my closet and donate what I don't wear anymore
5. Take my dad to Longhorn Steakhouse for a prime rib (his absolute fave!) for his birthday
6. Go to Alabama to visit my friend, Tressie
7. Get more pictures hung up in my bedroom
8. Set up a mini-conference with an old colleague to help me build better reading centers in my classroom
9. Spend a weekend at Gaylord Palms with my friends on the teacher discount
10. Go to Sea World with a group of friends (for free for because I'm a teacher!)

22. Have a "Girls Gone Godly" reunion with friends from college- Lauren, Mandi, Whitney and Kelly
23. Create a DIY (do it yourself) bulletin board to hang above my writing table in the den/office area
24. Take friends out on my brother's boat in Sarasota
25. Purchase an official blog design for my blog! (I didn't need to purchase one because I "won" one from another blog! Thanks, Shelly!
