Summer Bucket List

Summer is officially here! I thought it would be fun to put together a summer bucket list to explore our new city some more. So while the days get hotter, we have a fun list of things to do & many memories to make!



1. Homemade popsicles
I have been wanting to do this for a while & Pinterest is popsicle central.

2. Food Trucks
I have seen countless people go to food truck festivals & we finally live in a city that has one! I'm so excited & it will be the first thing we are checking off our list.

3. Beer Festival
Nate's obsession with craft breweries is an understatement. Naturally I had to add this to the list because there are countless breweries & wineries around us.

4. Lake
This was a no brainer. We keep mentioning to each other that it feels like we live in a beach town. Could it be because we have about 5 lakes surrounding us?

5. Baseball game
Duh.

6. Fireworks
We've heard there are fireworks throughout the summer at many of the lakes.

7. Buffalo Bills mini camp
Last year we went to the New York Jets mini camp & it was so much fun. Now we are living in Bills country & their summer camp is down the road from us.

8. Picnic
Did I mention we are surrounded by water?

Nothing makes me happier than adventures with my two guys, especially if they involve ice cream with ridiculous amounts of sprinkles & lots of laughs.

We Have A Place to Call Home!

We have an apartment! Finally! A real, true, newly constructed, pretty, pretty apartment! 

It has a garage, a fireplace, new appliances, a washer & dryer (like legit, none of that stack-able nonsense), hardwood floors; I could go on and on and on and on and on... but I won't bore you with all the glitzy details.

We couldn't be more excited. It's in a great location & did I mention it's brand new? No you say? Let me say it again, it's brand new!!!  And it's all ours! Pinch me.

We get to shop for new furniture too! You know, all the big stuff... sofa, table & chairs, bed, entertainment center. I can hardly contain myself. Literally. I might pee my pants from all this excitement!


A photo to show our enthusiasm! 



We live so close to basically everything. The city is a hop, skip & a jump, there are trails galore & any type of restaurant you could possibly dream of. It's been raining cats & dogs since we moved in, but we can hardly wait for the nice weather to come so we can explore our new city.

Side note: We saw Mumford and Sons a week ago on Coney Island & they were ah-mazing!


Another sidenote: I've added a new chalkboard print to my shop along with 2 original painting prints! 

Happy Wednesday! :) XO
