Summer Bucket List

I know what you think when you hear "bucket list" but this isn't "that" kind of list.  Just the stuff we plan on doing for summer.  I was thinking a checklist of stuff to do would motivate us to to turn the DVR off and start doing something.  I recently read an article in HGTV magazine about creating a summer list and then read about on http://thehappyfamilymovement.com/.  I love this idea - so cute.  So, me and the Z made our list:
