Bucket list: what I plan on doing this summer

Summer is always a favorite of ours. Our home is even more beautiful in this time, with all the light getting in on our white walls and the pool shinning with its cool water. We love spending the late afternoons in our backyard, host bbq and pool days with friends, at the same time go as much as possible to our family’s beach “cabin” and little house. So, to welcome our favorite season, here is my bucket list for this summer:

1. Read outside in our grass
2. Learn something new – self-study a new topic
3. Pick tomatoes from the garden
4. Walk in our local forest
5. Read a book set on the ocean side
6. Make homemade fruit ice cream
7. Go to a bike ride in the country side in the cooler weather of an early morning or late afternoon
8. Go explore a new river beach (we have lovely “praias fluviais” in Portugal)
9. Play badminton
10. Go play tennis again with family
11. Have picnics with family and friends
12. Have pool days with our friends
13. Host a family lunch in our backyard
14. Spend time with baby in the backyard
15. Read in the pool while baby sleeps in the shade
16. Go for our favorite ice creams
17. Have breakfast together in our backyard
18. Drink coffee outside in the early morning by myself
19. Swim in the ocean
20. Go to the beach with friends
21. Start the weekend in our pool with a Friday end of day swim
22. Camp with friends

I’m super excited for summer and already cleaning the pool. Are you too?
