Week 8 Summer Bucket List Update

At the beginning of summer, the kids and I sat down and created our summer bucket list. The list of things we were hoping to do over the summer.  We may not get to everything on the list, but it just gives us an idea of things to do.


The kids were in camp for 2 weeks in August, so nothing was crossed off the list. This past week though, we managed to hit up Saunders Farm (we met a friend of mine and her family) and had a blast.

1. Cookie baking  We got new neighbours and Mr. J wanted to welcome them with chocolate chip cookies
2. Sleepover at grandparents they have both had individual sleepovers
3. Swimming  we did lots of swimming during our stay at The Brookstreet
4. Water Fight
5. Playing Soccer  The boys had fun playing soccer with their dad while he was on holidays
6. Upper Canada Village
7. Valley View Farm
8. Saunders Farm
9. Agriculture Museum
10. Strawberry picking first week of July is prime Strawberry picking around here
11. Reading 1 chapter book/week
12. Movie theater we saw Angry Birds as a family
13. Visit the Diefenbunker
14. Lunch at the Cheshire Cat
15. Ice Cream from Carp Custom Creamery
16. Visit a splash pad
17. Driving range
18. Mini golf
19. Museum of Nature
20. Picnic in the park

We only have 1 more week before school starts, and we likely will do 3 or 4 of the other items. The Agriculture Museum and Valley View farm the boys aren't sold on, so they will likely not happen.
