ReplyDeleteIt's great you did all of these things! So impressive!!
This is a great list! You just inspired me to make one of my own with things to do by the end of the year.
ReplyDeleteI love that wall art!!!!!! I don't know all of the references, but my definite favorites were "Eugene + Katrina" and "Anne + Gilbert." You're summer sounds (and looks) like it was completely amazing. I really wish I had gone to the live AIO show... not to mention eating ice cream at Whit's End!!!! looks like y'all had a blast!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think you did awesome. What a great summer. :)
ReplyDeleteI liked some of your photos especially. I liked your drive-in movie photos a lot. The picture of the Columbia logo on the drive-in theatre screen is pretty cool, as is the one with the tickets. It's also kind of nifty that your three parts of the drive-in movie picture look like three widescreens. That blueberry waffle looks delicious. And again that lovely plate! I like the photo of Josh with the popsicle because a) it's funny, largely because of his expression, and b) because it looks like it uses natural lighting.
ReplyDeleteAnd, not specifically commenting on the photo this time but more the concept, breakfast for supper gets an A+ in my book! I've had at least two breakfast-for-suppers this month, and both were quite tasty!
Wow, it looks like you guys had a great summer! Having a Summer Bucket list sounds like a fun idea. Thanks for sharing it with us. You are full of creative ideas! Will you have a Fall Bucket List or a Winter Bucket List?
ReplyDeleteP.S. I read the entire post, no skimming for me. ;)
