Summer Bucket List

Life is a beach!
(via)
So, I know the official start of summer is June 21, but my last day of the 2014-15 school year is next Thursday.  One of the perks to DG and I being public school employees is that we're both 10 month employees, so we get the same funemployment (just in case you didn't know that teachers don't get paid over the summer).
Here's my summer bucket list:
*Attend a baseball game or two.  Holly Springs just got a collegiate level baseball team, so we're definitely trying to get to at least one.  And we always love the Durham Bulls games!
*Host a summer party in our updated backyard
*unplugged Sundays
*Try 5 (or 6) new restaurants in Raleigh (Garland, Faire, 18 Seaboard, The Oak, Battistellas, Bida Manda)
*Take the boys out for vanilla ice cream
*Have a drink at Gizmo Brew Works (yep, that's Gizmo's namesake.  Our friends who fostered him named him after their favorite brewery)
*Stick to a running plan with DG
*Attend a food truck rodeo (or 2)
*Hike the Eno River
*Make a fun new drink
*Have pool days with friends
*Be spontaneous!
What's on your summer bucket list?

P.S. check out this adorable Rifle Paper Company notebook!  I use it to write out ideas for my blog.  Seriously obsessed.

    Summer bucket lists are awesome. I hope you get to accomplish everything on yours. Hiking, unplugged Sunday and pool days are my favorite there on your list.

    Cutest list ever! I like the idea of an unplugged day. I've been feeling so oversaturated lately with all of the technology and information coming at me that I absorb info and then it dissolves. I'm retaining nothing. Unplugging might be exactly what I need.

    I think it's awesome that DG also gets the summer off. I have major guilt that my fiance still has to go to work every day while I get to relax and enjoy the summer. You bucket list is awesome, if you do it all you will have an awesome summer!
