I’ve always wanted to sky dive. Want to go with me? Shaun thinks I’m insane and won’t do it with me. I think it would be a blast!

Shaun also thinks that I need to clarify that yesterday’s item (go on an epic vacation, sans kids) referred to a vacation with him and friends NOT a girl’s weekend-which I have done and will do again in the near future :).

~~

I forgot how exhausting teaching new kids and a new schedule is. It’s crazy tiring. It’s 9:30 and I’m ready to crash. I’d better since I’m getting up at 4:45 to go to the EARLY bootcamp tomorrow. Yawn.

I know some people that are in Belize right now with no kids. It sounds like a blast. Shaun and I have never gotten away without Lu. She’s close to 4, it’s time!

Shaun declared something on his ANTI-Bucket List (meaning he NEVER EVER wants to do it)-touring Yellowstone on a motorcycle. He says it would be all around miserable. Since I have NO desire to ride a motorcycle EVER, I’ll have to agree with him 😉

Today was the first of two circus days at school. All the teachers have to dress up as clowns and the kiddos can dress up however they like. My clown interpretation was quite Santa Cruz inspired :). Lucy was a very sweet butterfly ballerina <3. Tomorrow is the LAST day of school!!! 20120607-214704.jpg

Bucket List-Day 6

June 6th, 2012 — 9:05pm

Last night I literally fell asleep while trying to think of my #5 on my list. When I woke up, I quickly wrote it down and posted it but couldn’t believe how tired I was.

Anyway-here’s to today!

When Lucy was just over a year old, Shaun and I took her to Hawaii with us.  It was a MAGICAL vacation.  It was simply divine!!! I cannont wait to go back but I don’t think it will be anytime soon.  It’s expensive and now it costs money to fly Lucy there. My old neighbors recently went though and they toured Kauai in a VW Vanagon.  How amazing is that? You camp all over the island and your car rental and lodging is wrapped up into one expense.  AMAZING! I want to do it.  BAD.

Bucket List:

1. Write a book
2. Own an actual house with a yard (NOT a condo!)
3. Get to 20% body fat
4. Bike Tour
5. Be totally debt free!
6. Tour Hawaii in a VW Vanagon
