6 Bucket Lists to Help You Live Your Best Life

Have you ever tried making a bucket list? While they might seem cliche, bucket lists are actually a great way to map out your life goals and become motivated to achieve them. Regardless of whether or not you actually check everything off, you’ll learn a lot about what’s important to you — and hopefully have some amazing experiences along the way.

If you’re a fellow lover of traveling, I urge you to create a travel bucket list. Write down all of the destinations that you know you’ll want to see in your lifetime, and little by little, start making them happen! Not sure where to start? These printable bucket lists offer some great inspiration. I’ve included the traveling one below. Happy bucket listing!

Bride, Bingo and Babies

 Still can't believe we've lived back in ND since July! The time is flying and I'm sure it has something to do with me keeping busy as a little bee with the Internet, I'm slightly obsessed!

Here's a little recap via Instagram, hence the grainy pics...but you've gotta love the convenience factor.

We took a roadtrip to the Tri-State area for a wedding, my hubby's relatives live in all three states. It was nice to see who we could and let the kids hang with two of their Great Grandma's. 

 Of course you can't have a road trip without these necessities, Starbucks and Chocolate....need I say more?

my hunky date for the wedding, isn't he a dreamy?!

the outfit...and yes, I pulled off "Footloose" dancing in those heels

The Stunning Bride and Handsome Groom

(we've got another lady Braun in the family, yipee)

I snuck out one night to play BINGO with my hubs Gma Toots. She's in her 90's and as quick as a whip! We both got lucky too, so fun!

We took a different drive back to Minot stopping by our old house in Grand Forks, she still stands red, tall and proud with a new fence too...great memories!!

and of course filling Etsy shop orders

What have you all been up to?

Plate Rack UpDo

As promised, here are my snazzy plate racks, all dolled up and put to good use!

After looking at them closer in the light of day this morning, I saw I missed a few spots, so gave them another spritz and let them cure for a few hours before hanging.

And graced with these sweet watercolors we picked up in Tallinn Estonia 

on a Scandinavian Cruise we took back in 2005.

The black frames were very inexpensive from Wally World.
