It feels like summer only just began, but it also feels like back to school is creeping up so quickly! So if you’re looking to make the most out of summer like us, I’m sharing my ultimate summer bucket list today. It has some of my favorite activities to knock out over the next month until the kiddos go back to school. The kids are ready for some summer fun, and these items will make sure they have plenty of it!
We have already crossed all but 6 of these off our list, and we will be doing the last few over the next month. It’s been a fun, busy month already! I’m exhausted, but the kids are loving it lol! We had done SO much, and we only have a few more things to go over the next month. Here’s to enjoying summer! Let me know which of these you’ve crossed off your list!
