My Bucket List

This life is short.

Time passes by in a blink of an eye and before we know it we have lived the life we are going to live.

I guess that is one of the reasons I have been thinking about the idea of a Bucket List.

Off and on I will get an idea of something I want to do and I will get all excited about the idea and before I know it I have forgotten my great idea.

Frustrates me to no end.

So I have decided to create a post in which I can create my Bucket List.

I know that most of you are probably familiar with the concept of a Bucket list but just incase your not I will tell you that a Bucket List is a list of things you want to do before you die.

I can't decide if this post is depressing or not?

In true Krissi fashion my Bucket List will have rules.

Your not surprised are you?

My first rule, this is my Bucket List and while I have hopes and dreams for my family these are things that only I can accomplish.

My second rule, no being a wuss if I think it, if I get excited about it, put it on the list. Who knows I might be a spry 90 year old lady who will do amazing Bucket List things.

Krissi's Bucket List

  • Travel to New York and see a Broadway Show
  • Travel to Hawaii again and this time go snorkeling out in the ocean

That is the beginning of my Bucket List I hope as time goes on I will be able to add and cross off some of the items on my list. Just out of curiosity what is on your bucket list?

PS This is a 52 Blessings Post because I believe that this life is one of our greatest blessings. :)

Me, Myself and I said…
I've wondered if you ever thought about writing a book. I think you should.

Our Christmas Letter

Each year I send out a Christmas letter and the one thing that frustrates me more then anything about the letter is that I can not include all the pictures I would like. That and Brent's rule that the letter has to fit on one side of one paper. I have gotten pretty clever with font size and margins to keep this rule. All you that have read this blog know that I am a sucker for pictures. So this year along with mailing out the letters I am going to post the letter with pictures. YAY ! So fun having your own blog to torture people anyway you want. Our Christmas cards were sent out on Monday so here in all it's digital glory is the letter again, this time with pictures. (Beginning of Letter) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We hope that this letter finds you happy, healthy and enjoying the holiday season. If you are like us, it has been a little bit of a difficult year dealing with increasing prices and a budget that isn't quite stretching to meet every thing you want it to...

Fantasy Land

The writer of this blog is currently in fantasy land. Meaning there will be no post as she is to busy pretending that she is on the sunny, care free, warm beaches of Hawaii. Apparently she is also under the delusion she looks smoking hot in a bikini and can currently (in the world of fantasy) be found on the beaches of Oahu sporting a bikini top and a grass skirt. Further evidence of how deeply she has entered fantasy land includes some very cute natives making sure her umbrella drinks are full and sunblock applied. The only thing she would like to mention to those of you still dealing with the real world and the endless hours of kids and summer vacation. "The water here is perfect and the sunsets are to die for please feel free to join me."

Hip Hip Hurray, Tomorrow is PIE Day

Well in a little less then 24 hours I am going to have to reset this counter.  I can hardly believe that it says 30 days.  I have to tell you I never thought I would make it this many days I really thought I would have to reset it at some point in time. It has been a huge motivation for me knowing that you guys are watching the counter.  Also, knowing that even if you didn't catch me in the time allowed you would see that I punked.  That I didn't have the self control, not to eat sugar. Every time I would think of eating a goodie, I would think about reseting the clock.  I would wonder who was online, I would wonder if I would get caught, I would wonder who would catch me.  By the time I got through thinking about all of that I would decide the treat wasn't worth it. Another motivation has been my kids, who have said, "Mom you don't have to reset the counter no one would know."  I wanted them to see that  I could be honest and not do something I shouldn't ...
