Updated Bucket List 7.15.12

Here is what we have been up to the past week!

My bucket list progress...

• I was blogging this week... here is what God is teaching me.

• I also blogged about our deep cleaning journey... this week was our living room storage.

• Won my first blog giveaway! A sweet friend Charlotte on her wonderful blog Yellow Brick Life, picked me to win this cute flower.  The flower is from the Silly Happy Sweet Shop.  I always tell my husband I don't need expensive jewelry as gifts... just fun and cute... and under $30.  That is the epitome of this shop!

• My dad and the girls came in this weekend to visit!  We fully took advantage of this by visiting all of the places we have wanted to go... but are actually best for kids.  We went to the zoo, the aquarium, the insectarium, and saw an imax on coral reefs.

Things I would like to read progress...
