So, for the last two summers, my husband I and have worked A LOT. My husband has worked 60+ hours a week and I've worked 40. Both of us worked the majority of our hours outside, playing with kids. So needless to say, we spent most of our summer exhausted. I am a very social person. I love to go and do and see and spend time with people. My husband will do all of that, but I usually have to plan it. Unfortunately, the last couple of summers have consisted mostly of us sitting at home and not doing much besides working. This year, I am determined to change that! The hubby is down to working one job (!!!!!) and that frees up a lot of time in our schedule. So, I've made what some refer to as a "Summer Bucket List." I informed my husband last week that we would NOT spend every night sitting at home, watching Netflix. I told him that we're going to do things and spend time with people. And he has responded well to my challenge, enabling us to cross the first item off our list last night. He took me, and one of our very brave friends, to the dirt track up in Springfield for a night of good redneck fun at the races. We met some interesting people and ended up covered in a thin layer of dirt, but had a great time. So, here is the rest of the list, in no particular order. I'm sure we will add to it as the summer goes on!
1. Go to as many Springfield Cardinals games as possible
2. Go see the new Batman movie
3. Go-Karts and putt-putt
4. Take full advantage of $10 White Water
5. Take full advantage of free SDC
6. Go to Dixie
7. Attend a Machine Gun Symphony concert in Springfield
8. Host a game night at our new BIGGER place when we move
9. Go to the races (CHECK!)
10. Rent a boat and/or go fishing at the lake
