All of the bold items are a work in progress. I know I will be able to cross more off the list this summer as I will have time to travel more and do things! :)
I do have to add one more thing to this list!
- meet my wonderful blog friends! I have to especially shout-out my fabulous friend, Erica at Young and Fabulous! You see, we both created bucket lists and agreed that we would meet and together we could cross off "meeting each other" on our lists! {Hope you don't mind I shared our story, Erica ;)}
Do you have a bucket list? If so, what types of things do you have on it?
If you don't have a bucket list, have you thought about creating one?
Have a great day lovelies! xo

Great list! I think you liked Emily Giffin? haha! Good job on knocking some thing off of your list :)
I am a new follower. Came across your blog on another page. I really like this list. Though it made me kind of hungry. (lol) I look forward to seeing what else you accomplish. Over at my blog I have started a '101 in 1001 Days' project. Feel free to swing by and check it out.
Have a great weekend!

I've been wanting to read those Emily Griffin books, did you love? Are you on GoodReads.com?
I love that you have a bucket list! I agree, Something Borrowed was sooo good! I can't wait to read your review. I'm now reading the book and I want to read all of the ones you've already read! Great things on your list, I wish I was devoted enough to make goals and stick to them. ha!
What a great Bucket List - great job on the reading girl! I really want to see the film Something Borrowed. I saw your tweet earlier today and thought to myself I must go! That's on my bucket list, lol. Glad you got to meet a bloggy friend too - yipee!
