Spring Break Bucket List
Can you believe it’s already here? It seems like we just wrapped up the Christmas holidays, but we’re not complaining! Summer is going to be here before we know it, and with the winter we’ve had, I swear I won’t complain about the Texas heat. I mean, I’ll try not to. 😉
As usual, Spring Break is going to be low-key for us. We relish our time at home void of busy schedules and demands. The only bad thing is that, although we enjoy going without a clock or calendar on these few and far between occasions, let’s be honest – those 5 days fly by super fast! I came up with some Spring Break Bucket List items to help us be more intentional with our time spent together. We’ll try to get to all of these next week!
Play a game of front yard family baseball. Baseball season is upon us, and it never hurt anyone to get outdoors and be active!
Have a family movie night. Popcorn + family + movie = FUN!
Date your mate. Because date nights don’t happen often enough!
Create a work of art. Maybe I’ll take the kids to Painting With a Twist like we did last Spring Break, or maybe I’ll let them get creative here at home with supplies or Legos!
Perform 3 random acts of kindness. Pay for someone’s order in the drive-through, tape a dollar to a soda machine, mow someone’s lawn, pick up trash at the park…get creative!
Take a treat to your neighbor. Dinner, cookies, flowers, a candy bar, a picture drawn by your kids…
Call your grandparents. They’d love to hear from you and your littles! Better yet – pay them a visit!
Read a book. This is always a good idea! I’d like us to finish up our current selection, Wonder.
Gaze at the stars in the night sky. I’ve been wanting to throw a blanket in the bed of the truck and watch for shooting stars, but we haven’t ever made time for it. This seems like a perfect week with both nice weather and time on our hands!
Get in or on the water. It might still be chilly, but dip your toes (or make a splash!) in the lake, ocean, or pool, and/or take a boat ride!
