Write a TV episode that makes it to TV…

Ride in a convertible while it’s snowing… sounds way more romantic than it probably is!

My (long) bucket list includes taking my kids on an overseas adventure… Once they’re old enough to appreciate it!

Skydive!

be a labor and delivery nurse

travel to a third world country and hand out the shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child

Two items: start my own business (you inspire me, Nicci!) and live on an ashram in India.

I would like to propose – to the public at large – that we stop calling these “bucket” lists. My husband says that sounds too depressing, so we have begun calling ours “dream” lists. Much more positive. Namaste.

I think you know mine! Write a book, write a book, write a book.

(Also, write for a TV show, live in NYC and write for Saturday Night Live.)

We’re all going to die, we’re all already naked, come on, why the heck not!!! I LOVED THIS!

I would love to sing some of the great music of Bach, Vivaldi, Verdi, or some other amazing composer in an old, beautiful, grand European Cathedral. I missed my chance to do this once and would love the chance to do it again!

I have an extensive bucket list, but one of the things I MUST do is…

Explore Italy. I want to go and just…go. No plan, no map, no agenda. I want to go all ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ on the place.

I also want that camera. I’ve been drooling over DSLR’s for close to two years now. I’ve been saving up, but inevitably a dentist visit sneaks up, or a car repair, or a family emergency of sorts. Photography is my artistic outlet. I love it.

Live in a different country…my husband is completing his PhD and we’re been discussing doing his post doc abroad…it scares the living daylights out of me, but I know we’d never regret doing it.

I’m a fan of ‘Just Ask’ on Facebook. 🙂

I now like Just Ask on Facebook! Thanks for this post, for introducing me to Just Ask, and for the great Steve Jobs quote! 🙂

I would like to run a marathon!

Such a beautiful cause, especially to someone who has a mother with breast cancer and a grandmother that will be seeing her fate soon with ovarian cancer.
As a reminder of my health, I encourage myself to be proactive with fitness and always remain optimistic.

P.S. I’m looking forward to nuggets tomorrow! 😉

Teach my daughter to water ski.

I’m not sure if this is really a ‘bucket list’ type item, but I’d love to see a cure for cancer in my lifetime. So, in the meantime, I’ll keep fundraising like crazy to support cancer research.

Someday I will go to Italy… See Tuscany, the Pantheon, and ride a gondola in Venice. Sigh. Someday.

Ooh, and regarding your #12… Check out a book called Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day. It is amazing!

I love your list and how it embodies the way you live out each day — with a whimsical touch of love and adventure. Rocky Mtn Fever? Crazy.
Thanks for this spark of inspiration. I’ll be thinking of my list for the rest of the day. Topping the list today is for Olive to meet her only living great grandma. I think a northern California road trip is in order…

Have a photo published on the cover or a national (or international) magazine.

I’m a fan of Just Ask on FB. 😀

Love this!

most of my bucket list items are pretty simple but a big one is to spend a month in Ireland with my hubs and kids. No rushing to see everying but to have the time to live it.

I want to learn how to cook amazing Italian food. My great grandma was from Italy, and I need to get her recipes from my grandma, before they get lost!

Facebook fan of Just ask!

I would love to travel to Europe!

Go on a bike tour in Holland….would love to connect with my Dutchy roots!

Go to culinary arts school! Then, open a bakery and see people smile every day when they bite into my yummies.

Go without a grocery store for a year.

Just liked them on facebook 🙂 Thanks for telling us about this awesome organization!

Pack up my family and travel the country in an RV, after our trip pick our favorite spot and move there permenantly

Walk my daughter down the isle with her father.

* Become a grandmother (my kids are 7, 3 and 13 months so I’ll have to wait a while on that one)
* Become a master baker (I’m trying a new recipe every week)
* Spend Christmas in a cabin in the snow
* Be able to afford an annual trip back to London to see my family
* Take a road trip across the US
* Eat pizza in Rome, savor a croissant in Paris, and enjoy tapas in Barcelona
* Ride an elephant

Great list! Canal boat trip down the Rhine with stops at EVERY castle.

To get up on the stage and sing with my guitar.

My childhood dream was to become a musician but my low self esteem and shyness held me back from ever performing.

Now, for my bucket list… I don’t ever want to be a professional musician or anything even close. I just want to prove to myself that I can get up there and sing my heart out and share one of the songs I have written after all these years. That I can do it.

I want to travel to Bhutan someday!

,,,walk the 3,889.5 miles of “actual wall” of the Great Wall of China,,,

~~I will get my lavender farm open and create a place where people will enjoy each other and have special moments~~

Just liked Just Ask on Facebook. My MIL is a breast cancer survivor so I strongly support Just Ask’s mission.

I had a bucket list once. And I am happy to say that much of it has been checked off..top was to experience being a mom (ovarian tumors made it almost impossible)..but then we adopted Gracee 9 years ago..not sure if it is a bucket list item but it was my biggest desire.

I guess all that is really left on the list is to take the RV across country with my girl on her 16th birthday..just she and me and our cameras. Visit everyone we know from the east coast right out to the west coast and see all the beauty on the way. lovely…eh?

recreate the east coast roadtrip i took with my family when i was a kid with my little family…

Deliver a baby (someone else’s, but my own too–but not my own by myself!). and i like just ask on facebook.

my other bucket list item is to own (and proficiently operate) a fancy camera to take pics like yours nici…

just liked them!

Drive a camper across all of the U.S.

I want to someday live in the country where I can have gardens and animals, which allow me to live a self-sufficient life.

I just liked “Just Ask”…so awesome! Too much cancer in my family (AND in everyone’s families).

Own and wear a wardrobe that is both flattering and practical- someday I aspire to actually be stylish!

play the fiddle like its on fire

raise sheep, and learn to spin wool, weave, & felt!

-Take an Amtrak trip with my daughters (to be checked off in the next couple of weeks–off to Maine we go!!)

-Find a place to really call home, where I can surround myself with like-minded people and not melt in the 100 degree sun for half the Georgia year.

-Take my daughters to Paris.

-See this magical wonderland called “Missoula.”

***Learn to play guitar…or at least the one song that my dad has played for me my whole life…so I can play it with him.***

P.S. – That photo of you is GORGEOUS.

Visit every national park in the US.

Take a 6 month-1 year adventure with my boys in some beach community. Surf. Learn. Play Yatzee. Have one SIMPLE year in the sand.

This brought tears to my eyes. My husband and I are in a funny spot right now where we know we need change. He isn’t doing the work he wants to do, yet we are scared to take the plunge since money is tight to begin with. These words were very much appreciated!

Prepare my boys for a successful life by providing them a strong education and lots of important life experiences.

Renting a camper, taking a month off and seeing the country with my hubby and son!!!

Item on my bucket list is to roam around in Amsterdam with nothing but my boyfriend, my backpack, and some good beer.

Also I liked the facebook page! 🙂

I would love to travel throughout Europe with my hubby and kids…experiencing different cultures would be amazing!

Go back to school 🙂

To carry on my sweet momma’s memory by being as awesome as she was…I hope my kids love me as much as I still love her 🙂 Can it be that general?? lol

And I added Just Ask on facebook

I liked Just Ask on Facebook…thank you for drawing attention to a wonderful and oh so important mission!

Such a small thing, but learn to knit! It’s been on my list FOREVER!

Meet/visit my family in Argentina!

One item on my bucket list is to visit Machu Picchu – something about that place has always intrigued me, especially because getting there always seemed to be a challenge. Hopefully someday I will see it!

Go up in a hot air balloon!

There’s lots of items on my list but one of the big ones is that I would love to learn how to fly a plane!

I also liked Just Ask on Facebook! What a great organization –

I want to move to a different city; I never thought I’d end up living in my home state! Portland, OR is currently the contender. It’s scary, because I’m 46, will be48 when we can move, so I am afraid of not being able to recreate the great circle of friends I have now.

I’d like to visit every major league baseball stadium. This is technically from my husband’s bucket list but I would love to do this with him and our three boys.

Ride in a hot air balloon.

I want to learn to swim without holding my nose! At this rate, my children will be teaching me instead of vice versa!

I’ve always wanted to go to England, my dad was born there and I would like to see all the family sights. I would also want to go to the really touristy spots too. In fact, I was just thinking I would cross that street like the Beatles did! Oh, and I’d go to perfect my British accent! Chip chip Cheerio!

Love this post! Such a great motivator to explore how I want to live each day! One of my bucket list items:

Renew my wedding vows…on the beaches of Hawaii…with all our babes by our side. I want each of my children to see the love ‘mom’ and ‘dad’ have for one another.

I love your list. One on mine is to visit India as well, and live in an Ashram.
Another on my list is to take my husband to see the Grand Canyon, at sunrise. I had the honor of witnessing the sun rise over the mountains, and it was a beautiful experience.

Just ‘Liked’ Just Ask on FB!

Raise my kids to be free spirited lovers of life (that’s all). 🙂

I am in love with your list. Will you be my friend? 🙂 seriously, you inspire!!!

I did #1 on your list with my fam when I was 8, 9, and 12 every winter. Then when I was 13 we just up and moved to Central America for three years. Sooooo amazing for me and my sis. This is also #1 on my bucket list to do with my boys and husband one day.
(I liked it on FB too).

-Hang glide on the northern California coast
-Hot air ballon ride over fields of barley

Also liked “Just Ask”. Thanks for all you do!

This is freaky. I literally have my bucket list pulled up at this moment looking over it and adding some things.

It’s hard to choose one, but I will go with:

#32 Go White Water Rafting

I want to grow old enough to see my grandkids (a long time since my second baby is still in the womb). I would love to take my family to Africa and visit the national parks of Gabon for a month. Spend family time, family time, family time! This is so different than 3 years ago before I had a family!

I “liked” just ask on Facebook

Live in South America!

Lay with my love in a deserted field on a winter’s night and watch the snow fall softly from the sky.

Great list! For me:
Grow a plentiful, fruitful vegetable garden!
I think I can do it one of these summers….

I want to open sort of a half-way home for needy children and their mothers. Where the mothers have access to resources to help them become better mothers and get back on their feet. And a place where children can get the loving care they need.

Well! Grow a prune plum tree, because I love those golden fleshed purple jewels. This of course means moving a large distance, or finding just the right microclimate spot.

Tough to choose but #7 finally finish that cloth diaper board book I have been working on.

And, FB liking done! So fun.

Someday I’ll make it out of the United States! I’ve never even been to Canada, but someday I want to go to Europe.

Thanks.

I’ve always wanted to win a prize that I don’t need so that I can give it to someone who really does need or want it. Like I want to give a gift that I didn’t have to pay for to someone that I don’t really even know. As I write this, not sure exactly why this is on my list, but I think it has something to do with wanting to feel like Granny Gotrocks or something egotistical like that. Maybe I’ll get my chance if I win the camera because I don’t need one!!

I want to live in a different country for at least a month.

start up my own restaurant. 🙂

Walking and Scuba tour of greece with my husband.

I love this! I’ve written about my bucket list in a post on my own blog, but I call it an “Anything List” because the thought of looking at this big list of “I can do anything” and then choosing the “something that will make me happy right now” feels way more promising and fulfilling than compiling a list of things I want to accomplish before I, well, die.

At the top of mine:
-live in a cottage in the mountains
-climb a bridge
-buy a big ugly van, paint it beautiful colors, and drive it to the pacific

So so so many things to do… including learn and remind myself every day not to waste this life…just one off the bucket list would be being financially able to move to europe (austria) for about a month every year)…and have my own cabin in the woods somewhere to write – “a place of my own”… love the “you’re already naked” quote

I want to someday capture the beauty of the natural world on my farm in photographs and images I make from ink, oil pastels and paints and use these images to write and illustrate a cool book for little kids.

– Take an exotic trip to someplace far away and out of my comfort zone with my best friend – just the two of us. No phones, no internet, just enjoy each other and experience a new place together (and take lots of photos while im there!) – Em : )

*open my own bistro that serves all locally grown food in a delightful and cozy atmosphere
*show my kids the vastness of the ocean
*buy an RV and travel the continent
*see all 7 wonders of the world!
*set foot on every continent, including Antarctica
*move to a small town where I feel comfortable letting my kids out of my sight!

LOVE this so…“You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart” Words to live by indeed.

My list is all over the place… but my biggest dream is to find a way to use my passion for photography & writing as a way to make a living. Learning to keep my sourdough starter alive is high up there too… 🙂 !

And how much do I love that one of the prizes is a trip with Las Olas Surf Safaris?!? Right now I am sitting in what used to be their stateside offices… the warehouse where we live was their headquarters for many years. Small world coolness.

travel in an rv across america with my husband and kids

I share your desire to write a book…one about my yearly family trips with my sister’s families to my mom’s beach house. HOWEVER…I cannot figure out how to write it without offending my dear mother’s sensitivity to my wide and varied love of using “curse” words. “oh Kimberly! I wish you wouldn’t curse so much” Damn conscience.

Bummer. I guess you have to have a blog to enter. But I “liked” them on Facebook anyway 🙂

I love these kinds of prompts, though. Thanks for asking 🙂

And your self (?) portrait on this post is GORGEOUS!

Swear of my life the top of my bucket list is ‘save for a fancy camera and most importantly, learn how to use it!’ I spend my days taking pictures of my kids with my point and shoot camera (see my blog!!!) I am currently learning to choose my own settings and trying hard to stay away from the automatic setting. I love capturing my kid’s childhoods and I feel now is the time to move on to the next step with it and really get creative.

Visit the pyramids in Egypt! They fascinate me.

own and run my very own hobby farm 🙂

What a great post! My bucket list: Travel to Europe with my family and visit where both my husband and my ancestors came from. Learn to sew. Have a garden we are able to eat from that is sustainable, sell one of our cars and carpool/drive to work together, complete an iron-man triathlon, teach my son about the importance of faith, family, education and following his heart!

I was feeling all weepy over turning 30 in a few days, wondering where the time had gone and mad at myself for not being more “accomplished” at this point in my life…and then I read this and realized that I’ve already checked the 2 most important (to me) things off my list: marry most amazing man on the planet and have babies with him. Everything else (more babies, start a non-profit, renovate house) is just icing at this point. So thanks for the wake-up call! Oh, and I would love a new camera to document my next, best yet, decade with!

Bucket List: Hike the Appalachian Trail

Go back to Japan and visit as many shrines and Buddhist temples as I possibly can. I have lived an amazing life since my visit there but have yet to feel the sense of inner peace.

I love this post.
My bucket list includes:
1. Start a photography business
2. Travel to some place new
3. See New York City
4. Meet a famous artist
5. Learn a different language
6. Backpack in Europe
7. Get married and start a family
8. Go sky-diving
9. Write a book

Number one on my bucket list: have a baby and experience life through a child’s eyes.

2 things: I want to wear a Bebe dress and feel DAMN GOOD. I want to visit Montana. Never thought I’d want to, but this blog has changed my perspective on natural beauty 🙂

The next thing I want to do in the coming future is have another sweet baby (I have one already). The reason this is so high on my list is because yes, everyone told me that the time goes fast and to enjoy the baby days while they last, but I didn’t believe them and now my sweet girl is on the brink of being two years old and I long for the smell of her newborn skin and her milk drunk smiles. Haha, maybe I’ve got just a touch of baby fever!

I want to run a marathon.

I trained for and began one in April of this year but the race got shut down due to heat and i was diverted to the half.

It sounds simple and easy, but with two young kids and one on the way it’s an out of reach goal at least this year, but I want to take my family to the upper and lower peninsulas in Michigan in the fall to see the gorgeous leaves and eat fresh donuts and drink cider & pick apples at an apple orchard!

I want to go back to college and finish my bachelor’s degree. I want my sons to be at my graduation and be proud of me for finishing what I started.

I want to become conversationally fluent in Spanish and French (since they’re so similar and I already know some French, well, just enough to fake it).

I want to spend time just driving across the country. A month with no plans and no final destination, so I can explore and discover.

It was fun reading your list, especially because we have some things in common! I too was once proficient at speaking French and want to get back into it. I keep telling myself I need to just start speaking it to my daughter, but so far that hasn’t happened. And India and book writing are also on the top of my lists. I think this has to be a great exercise and one I will definitely be doing soon.

A random sampling from my list: hike muchu picchu, surf, sew something elaborate, have chickens and plan my daughter’s wedding.

I would love to travel more with my family, now that my children are older and more appreciative of the opportunity. And old enough to have memories that will last a lifetime!

Just “liked” Just Ask on FB!!!

Write a book!

I’m not Italian and have never been to Italy, but on my list…

Eat a bowl of pasta cooked by an Italian grandmother while in Italy!

Hope to win!!

Top of my bucket list are:
1. Trek Machu Picchu
2. Discover the Mayan Civilization in Chichen Itza
3. Visit the Cotton Castle
4. Hike in Bryce Canyon
5. See the Aurora Borealis

The rest of my extensive bucket list is on http://www.wanderable.com – it’s a great place to share tips and ideas with other people! =)

I loved reading this today. Your list is great.
Like others said, I too will be thinking about my list the rest of the day. The one thing that pops in my head immediately is to visit Greece with my family. Of coarse when the kids are old enough to appreciate it.

I did Hump Day Nuggets today! Wanted to send you a link. They aren’t very romantic, but still, the bloglove is there!

Hope you’re having a good hump day!

What a great blog post!!

I want to take the time to write down my mother’s life story (and even my own) for my future children. After beating breast cancer three years ago and dying of colon cancer two years ago, I want to be able to preserve her memory knowing that my future children will never meet their grandmother.

Like JustAsk on Facebook. As someone who is predisposted to breast and colon cancer, this organization is very near and dear to my heart!

And again trying… what is it today with leaving a comment? So, bucket list: Start a community garden! This has sort of made it to the toppish of the list lately. Thanks for this Nici. xo

This was such a fun thing to do.
I want to raise chickens! How do you like that?

I liked Just Ask on Facebook! (and I really do like it) 🙂

Absolutely: live completely off-grid and be mostly food independent!

One thing from my bucket list is to watch my son grow up to be a confident, independent and empathetic young man despite of his scars from being born with clefts.

Someday I want to do a half iron man. Interestingly I have absolutely no desire to do a full iron man. It just sounds ridiculous, BUT after finishing the half there is a decent chance that I might find myself unstoppable. We’ll see.

I want to live on a beach/in the mountains in Europe with my (future)and have beautiful babies.

LIKED HBOC. COOL cause!

Nici, I’ve read your blog many times. I love gardening and creating things and I hope to one day be a mother like you. I am thrilled about the contest. One item on my bucket list:

1. Start a charity. I have an idea and I’ve always wanted to see it grow.

Oh, what would I really like to do… Have a pajama/stay in bed day with my children/hubby!

Really enjoy your writing and your photos:)
On my list, is to explore the Mediteranean Coast, especially the island if Corsica. So beautiful!

And, I just liked Just Ask on FB!

Wow, that is quite a list. I don’t have a “bucket list,” but a couple of my “I’ve always wanted to do that” items include; 1.) Visit Washington, DC in the spring when the cherry blossoms are in bloom, 2.) Float a multiple-night river trip (a la, the Salmon River or Grand Canyon) with my daughters, camping out on sandy beaches under the stars, 3.) Pass my exams and get my architectural license!

Someday, somehow, visit all the National Parks.

Ooh. Such a fun task.

One of mine is definitely to (re)learn spanish. (I used to be quite good in it, but several years of non-usage has led my spanish fluency to dwindle)

Also, I’d like to see pucon in chile. I had the chance when I was in college and studying abroad and I passed it up (I was exhausted at the time and just needed a weekend of non-travel). I’ve regretted it ever since.

Go back to school for my Masters or Family Nurse Practitioner.

I want to start a family of my own that was as great as the family I was able to grow up with

Go to Spain with my husband. I went once about ten years ago and had one of the most romantic dinners ever. Too bad it was with one of my best friends 🙂

I just happened to hop over today, Nici, and I am so glad I did!

I love the “naked” concept. Yes, indeed, life is too short.

I laugh, too. One of “dares” more than a list, is to run the Bay to Breakers naked…like so many other people do…but being confident in my 40 something body and free as a bird!

On the more serious side, to someday live on a river and have my own recording studio.

Show my kids the Xian Tombs and walk the Great Wall of China with them.

Oh gosh, where to start! Probably with the most immediate bucket list goal: take the 9-year-old husky on a cross-country adventure in the Airstream while I still can. I *will* make this happen next summer/fall, and you’ll be seeing my photo spam all over Facebook!

I liked the page!

…and because another bucket list item is to get a DSLR and take some classes through the RMSP, I’m a proud new Facebook fan of Just Ask 🙂

take my husband on a trip to Europe – sans kids…… Just us. Nice and romantic.

My biggest deal on my bucket list is to simply quit my job, so I can stop pleasing others and start pleasing myself. I want to train under a midwife. That is my goal, that is my passion. Teaching 4th graders pays the bills, but I want to help women have the birth of their choice.
Second, I want to have an art opening of my own. I want to find that thing that evokes so much creativity in me that I can’t stop creating, so I can have a solo show.

I haven’t written my bucket list yet, but for sure one of the things I have wanted to do for a long time is take a looooonnnng trip to Kauai, Hawaii. Now I would want to bring my son and meet my sister and nieces there (they are living in China). I would also like to be more organized with my pictures and videos of my son and blog.

start taking ballet again…in my 30’s.

An amazing contest! After going to art school and getting my BFA, I soon after fulfilled my dream of becoming a momma! Although it immediately appeared to be far from fairytale, in an instant I became a single momma to a very sick daughter with down syndrome. Nine challenging years have passed and Emily is one of the most incredible blessings…sure perspectives have changed and the bucket list too, but some things never change….dreams!
A few from my long bucket list include:
1) To make art again
2) To be truly at peace with the possibility that Emily may never eat orally.
3)Take a real family vacation beyond travelling to Children’s Hospital
4)Learn to knit
Never stop dreaming!

I think my comment from last week disappeared so…..I would like to learn to ice climb!!!!!!

And I “liked” just ask on fb!!!!

One thing on my bucket list is to have a garden, just have to get a house with a yard!

I have also “liked” Just Ask on Facebook.

My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer last week. I hate that shit has to happen to make us realize these things…

On my list…

(1) Make a living on my own time doing what I love.
(2) Use my lawyer skills to help someone who is truly in need.
(3) Raise my daughter to be smart, kind, and fearless.

Of the many things I have yet to do one “local” thing is climb all of the “fourteeners” in Colorado with my boys (when they are old enough – they are 2 and 4 🙂

1. Go to Italy
2. Go to the Louvre and see the Mona Lisa (I will cry)
3. Raise my daughter to be more confident than I was as a child
4. Renew my vows with my hubs on a beach surrounded by the people that really matter.
5. Find a job that I really love and dominate it.

Learn to can fruits/veggies from my mom and aunts, and learn their homemade italian sausage recepie too.

Huh. Certainly glad you mentioned in your latest post that people are having issues getting their comments to show up… I never even realized that mine didn’t! So thanks for that!

My bucket list would take hours to write because there are tons of things on it… but a few:

1. Ride a hot air balloon
2. Go whale watching
3. Partake in a missions trip to a 3rd world country
4. Skydive in Hawaii
5. Volunteer long-term for a charitable organization
6. Visit every continent of the world

Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Saw your note today that some of the comments didn’t show up so trying again as I didn’t see mine from last week.

One item on my list is to see a show at the Grand Ole Opry! And to take my Cecilia to the top of the Statue of Liberty.

On my bucket list:
1. Raise my daughter to be a generous, compassionate soul.
2. Open a cupcake shack. Not a bakery, just a cupcake store.

Finally become fluent in Spanish!

Apparently my deleted too!! Have an absolute no interruption pajama day with hubby and daughter 🙂

Someday, I would love to learn to swim. Everyone thinks it’s crazy I don’t already!

See the Grand Canyon with my family all for the first time together.

Top on my bucket list is to become a more patient mama. Second is to more consistently live in the moment. Third is to take more pictures – I get so busy living in the moment, I forget to document it!

To learn a “skill” that reminds me of my grandmother…quilting, knitting, by the time I have grandchildren!

I just “Liked” Just Ask on facebook! I’m extra thankful for my mom who just got a clean bill of health after surviving breast cancer last year.

This exercise makes me grateful for all of the incredible experiences I have already had in life!! Losing both of my parents too soon drove home the point that life is too short – don’t take it for granted! Okay – so one major undertaking on my bucket list is to thru-hike the Pacific Crest Trail. Since I have a 13 month old baby, it will be awhile until this practical, but I won’t put it off too long!

I like just ask on Facebook! And that pic of you is just gorgeous nici. Seriously.

I’d like to do a half iron man someday. Doing a full iron man seems crazy, but I can’t guarantee that after doing a half I won’t feel unstoppable.

Skydiving is right up there at the top of my list.

I want to live to see my children travel the world & come back and tell me all their favorite experiences….of course if they want to take me with…I could always bring this awesome camera. xoxo

Okay, re-entering. On my to-do-before-I-die list: become conversationally fluent in French and Spanish.

Would love to be included in the draw 🙂 My bucket list includes learning out how to sew a really great quilt 🙂

1. Start my own business that connects people with their desires and each other.

2. Own my own property, debt-free.

3. Live overseas for 6 months or more.

buy an rv and take the whole family on a road trip out west.

I would love to be able to take my kids to Ngarium, Uganda to help the people there in someway or another. I think it would be the ultimate life lesson about love, giving,being thankful, and knowing how very fortunate we are.

I want to learn to weld! And then use that skill to make beautiful things.

I want to walk into a store, grab clothes off the rack, take them into the dressing room, try them on and not HATE what i see. I am working on it…one day at a time baby!!

I inherited my grandmother’s piano. Sitting next to her on the piano bench playing is one of my only great memories of her. I’ve moved the durn thing twice, but I still need to get it tuned. SO, I would love to learn to play the piano (really, even just plunk out one tune!) to honor my grandmother’s memory.

I also liked Just Ask on Facebook.

Travel around the US in a camper or RV and introduce my children to all the many family members that they have not met.

I would travel the US with a camper or in RV visiting family members and old friends, introducing the boys to everyone important to me.

I want to be brave and visit Karachi, Pakistan to visit my husband’s family (although he grew up in the UAE.) I would also like to learn a little bit of Urdu and have my wee little son learn it too.

I want to be free. If I can accomplish that before I die I will be happy. 🙂
