It’s been a month since I last updated you on my Summer Bucket List, so I’m back with the final update! Granted, I still have time to do so some of these, but I think I did fairly well!
Swim at Night: Yes, a few times!
Paint All My Nails: No!! But again, I have some more time to get this finished, so *fingers crossed* I get on it.
Read Winter by Marissa Meyer: Yes, and I loved it!
Celebrate My Blogoversary: Yes, I’m doing that this month. A couple giveaways will be coming, but for now, you can see my 11 Favorite TV Shows/Movies and 11 Favorite Songs in honor of 11 years of blogging!
This was the summer bucket list I created for this link-up, but I also made a Summer Fun from A To Z list. I’m not going to share the whole list, but the things I’ve done —
*went to library book club
*did at least one library craft event
*dance recital
*eat outside (a couple times)
*attended some Cincy area festivals
*celebrated my sister’s birthday
*saw Niall Horan and Maren Morris live – concert review
*saw a couple outdoor movies
*did a wine/paint night (minus the wine) with my mom
*went to one Pride event
*did lots of reading – and swimming!
*went to King’s Island Water Park a few times
*wedding planning for my friend – a bit, but I got my dress, so yay!
Whew- I think it’s been a really nice summer. Granted, I still have a month left to get in some last minute summer adventures like actually painting my nails! And maybe even doing a picnic in the park!
How has your summer been going? Let me know in the comments!
Check out the other blogs on the link-up:
Wahoo! You’re so close to finishing your list!! My summer has been INSANE, but I’m quickly approaching the wedding, so things should calm down a bit after that! 🙂
You have done really well, that is awesome!
You’ve done great! I had a few items I wanted to get done this summer and did or am in the process of it. But, I got a couple other things done that came up, too. It’s been a fast, but fun and productive summer.
Gah I haven’t night swam in years! So fun!
You’ve done a lot of fun things!
Sounds like a great summer! Happy you enjoyed Winter and congrats on your 11 year blogoversary (that’s truly amazing!)
I can’t believe summer is winding down. It has been a busy one. Good for you getting all that fun stuff done.
I’m so glad you loved Winter! I just got the audiobook and was going to start it right after The Truth About Forever. Eeep! I’m so excited to see how the story ends. <3
Lindsi @ Do You Dog-ear?
I still need to read Winter! I think I’ll try to put it on hold at the library. Thanks for the kick in the pants lol
I really struggled this summer. I found my love of gardening again though so I’m happy.

Sounds like a great summer. Yay for reading Winter!!
You have done a lot of fun things this summer based on this list. I am sure you can get those nails painted before summer is over 🙂
You’re doing awesome! I did not get to a lot of my to do list but it’s been pretty drab weather and having a baby made it a little harder! But now I am ready for Fall! Bring on the colorful leaves and pumpkins! Baby Bloob will enjoy this season better anyways 😀
Well done, with your summer list, and the summer fun from A to Z list! I’m thinking of getting my nails painted this week.
Sounds like such a fun summer!
Excellent progress! Night swimming sounds especially lovely. Enjoy these last few weeks of summer!
Looks like you’ve made great progress!
I don’t want summer to end, and today it was chilly and felt like fall! You’ve done well, and I hope you get to do the picnic.
Sounds like you had a very eventful summer! Next year I’m going to create a bucket list for sure!
I love the idea of a summer bucket list! I wish I made time for more reading, but we’ve been having a rocking summer so far. It sounds like you have too!
Aw, I love this idea! And you’ve done so many awesome things 😀 I think swimming at night is lots of fun, because it’s always associated with the sun so when it’s nice and cool it just has a different feel about it. Now I really want to go on a picnic, as well. I cannot remember the last time I had a picnic! I hope you get to finish your list, Lauren 😀
I hope you get to squeeze in everything you want to do yet! Enjoy the last days of summer. 🙂
Swimming at night is so much fun! It looks like you’ve had a fun summer so far. 🙂
You did so many great things this summer! I love the swimming at night idea. I am definitely going to draw up a list of what I did and what I didn’t do but want to do next summer. Love this!
Have a fabulous day. =)
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Oh fun! I’ve traveling a lot this summer, but it’s mostly been for work.
I am glad to hear it has been a nice summer. You did a lot of fun things, but mixed in enough of the rest and relaxation it sounds like 🙂
It sounds like you had a really fun summer so far! Glad that you were able to get nighttime swim in! Also a paint night (even without the wine!) sounds like a great time 🙂
It sounds like you have been doing quite well this summer, Lauren! I’m going to check out your tv shows/movies list. I feel like watching something new tonight, haha! x

this is a great bucket list! it sounds like you guys had fun!
Happy blogiversary! I love that you were able to swim at night. That sounds so fun and I wish I had done that!
Great job with your list! And happy blogiversary!!
I loved Winter (and all the Lunar Chronicles)! I’m headed to King’s Island this Sept. with my brother’s work (Honda)!
It definitely sounds like you got a good amount of things in this summer! (I can’t believe we’re already approaching the end of it!!) I still need to go swimming at some point!
I should post an update on my summer bucket list, before summer gets away from us! I love the idea of swimming at night. I’m excited about the giveaways, blogoversaries are so fun!
