Hello, my bucket list, friends! Last summer I went to Las Vegas for the first time and I fell in love with the city. On the way back from Idaho, we stopped in Las Vegas for a few hours, and while it was very short, it was amazing. I can’t wait to tell you more about it, so let’s get to it.
August 13th – This was the day that we came back home from Idaho. I was excited because we got to spend a few hours in Las Vegas, but I really wanted to stay the night there. I love Las Vegas, and I was praying so hard that our flight would be canceled so we could have more time in the city that I fell in love with the year before. However, we did have enough time to go to the Shark Reef Aquarium. I had been wanting to visit this aquarium for a while, and I was very excited to have the chance to go. I really enjoyed the aquarium. There was so much to see here, including a giant lizard! There was also a touch tank. After exploring the aquarium, we ended up getting some much needed massages. It was great to get to relax for a bit. I was still praying that our flight would get canceled. Even when went back to the airport. At the airport, I did get some Las Vegas souvenirs. I also got some souvenirs at the aquarium . Our flight did get delayed, but it did not get canceled. I was said when I got on the airplane to go home, I was sad. However, I’m very thankful that I got the chance to go to Las Vegas again and that I got to go to the Shark Reef Aquarium.
Hello, my bucket list, friends! In August, I went to visit my family in Idaho. While I was there, I did a lot of thrift shopping, visited a reptile zoo, and more. I can’t wait to tell you about all the fun I had in Idaho, so let’s get to it.
August 6th – This was the day that I arrived in Idaho. I was very happy to see my grandparents and their dog. I also went to Walmart, where I got some stickers that you color, markers, and some bracelets from a vending machine.
August 7th – On this day, I went thrift shopping at two different stores! Of course, I got some great items, including stickers, Barbie books, a bag of rubber ducks, and some plush toys. We also went to Burger King it was a good day!
August 8th – On this day, we went to frozen yogurt. One of the topping choices was freeze-dried Skittles. I put so many on my yogurt because they are expensive to buy in stores. I enjoyed my yogurt and later that night we went to savers. When we got there, we did not have a lot of time before the store closed, but I got some books, including an American Girl book that had stickers in it. I also got some stickers.
August 9th – On this day, my mom and I went to the Idaho reptile zoo. I highly recommend going here if you get the chance to. There are so many interesting reptiles here! I loved looking at all the snakes, lizards, and turtles. I also really enjoyed getting to feed huge tortoises. There are also some birds and fish here as well. We also went back to savers, and I made a quick visit to the thrift store next door. I got some more books, stickers, and a TY beanie baby.
August 10th – On this day, I got Starbucks and spent the day visiting family. This included getting to see some very cute animals, including cows.
August 11th – On this day, we had a family birthday party. We started by going out to lunch, and then we picked up a birthday cake and some other things before going back to the house for cake and ice cream. I also got some stickers and hot wheels cars at the store. It was great to have a party with my family it reminded me of the parties that we used to have.
August 12th – On this day, my mom, sister, and I went on an adventure to one attraction in Boise that I had not been to yet the old Idaho penitentiary. The tour was interesting and I do recommend it but it is definitely not for everyone. However, it is not often that you get a chance to visit a prison, so it was a good opportunity to go somewhere that I normally would not. I still prefer the zoo, though. I also went to Walmart again, and I got a color reveal Barbie, bath bombs, and stickers. I was our last full day in Idaho, and it was a good one.
Thank you for reading about my August Idaho adventure.
Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m happy to say that I’m finally writing about the month of August! August is one of my favorite months because it is a summer month, and it is also my birthday month. I started off the month by going to the beach. I’m excited to tell you about that and some other activities I did this month, so let’s get to it.
August 1st – I started off the month by going to the beach. I got coffee before I went to the beach . I love walking on the beach while drinking coffee. It was a great way to start the month.
August 3rd – On this day, I started drawing my summer picture. I’ve been drawing a picture during the summer for several years now. This year, I went with a book in the middle of the picture because every summer is its own story. I like the way this picture ended up looking. I really like the book in the middle of the picture. Also, on this day, I got a fun sticker book at Safeway!
August 4th – On this day, my friend and I went to the movies. We saw Harold and the Purple Crayon. It was a very good movie! It was full of adventure and imagination. I highly recommend going to see this movie. It was one of the best movies that I’ve seen in a while. After the movie we went to the Dollar Tree. I got a few things, including some stickers, an ice pop shaped serving try, and a TY plush keychain. After that we went to lunch. It was a really great day

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m going to do one more post about July before I do a thing I love post on a month that was pretty great for me. I realized that there were a few more things that I wanted to say about the month before I wrapped it up. Without any more delay, let’s get to it.

Hello, my beautiful bucket list, friends! To help me get caught up with my posts, I decided to put a bunch of my July highlights into one big post, and this is that post! I hope you enjoy reading about some of my favorite summer fun moments. Let’s get to it!
A fun trip to Target on July 7th – I went on a shopping trip to one of my favorite stores, and of course, I got some fun items. Some of my favorite items I got were a Barbie notebook, Barbie coloring pages, a Barbie doll that was on sale, squishmallows ,stickers, and two summer themed activity kits I also got some really fun Barbie pens! It was a great trip to one of my favorite places to shop.
My bucket list bucket hat – I recently put this item on my bucket list, and I was happy to cross it off. It was a project that took a long time, but I was so happy with how it looked when it was done. This hat really looks like a work of art and just so happy that I was able to make something like this!
Going swimming -I got to go swimming on July 25th. I went swimming at a gym pool that I had been to before but it had been a long time since I had been there. I don’t get to go swimming as much as I like, so I was really happy to get a chance to do this classic summer activity.
friend hangout on July 22nd – I got to see my friend this month. It was a simple hangout where we went to Starbucks and the park, but it was a great hangout. Anytime you get to see one of your favorite people, relax, and have a good conversation, it is a good time.
frog art project -I bought this art kit from Five Below. It was a simple painting art kit. I love doing art kits like this. Kits like this are great for relaxation. I had a fun time doing this kit. I loved painting the frog, and I’m really happy that I got this kit.
shopping at Five Below on July 14th – I love going to this store, but I do not get to go often. I put going to Five Below on my summer bucket list because I wanted to motivate myself to go shopping here since it had been a long time. Well, I did get to go, but I did not have much energy because I had bronchitis. The pharmacy I went to was very close to the Five Below, so I went there after picking up my medication. I got some fun items, of course. I’ve been really into stickers lately, so I got some while I was shopping here. Other items I got were squishy toy craft kit, a very small Barbie doll, a Squishmallow water bottle, and a Barbie nail set. I did not spend a lot of time in this store because I was not feeling well and I had very low energy. However, I’m still happy that I got to go, and I’m happy with the items I did get.
Shopping at savers on July 24th – I went shopping at Savers! I bought some fun items, including a bunch of stickers that were in a bag of scrapbooking supplies, a sand art kit, a Barbie book, a My Scene doll, and a cassette player.
Shopping at work – ok, I did so much of this. I don’t even know where to start! I did get lots of stickers, so I guess I can start with that! Our Hallmark vendor put out lots of stickers, and I have had a great time buying them. Some other items that I got at work during July included a bucket of playdough that came with playdough cutters, a Hot Wheels car that look like a slice of cake, an LOL doll, a summer ChapStick set, a Hello Kitty Lip Smackers set, and a Hello Kitty coloring book.
I hope you enjoyed reading about some of my July adventures!
Hello, my bucket list, friends! I wanted to do a quick post about my visit to a local amusement in July . Every post helps me get a little closer to catching up with my blog. Let’s get to it!
July 22nd – On this day, I went to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. My goal was to cross off ride five rides at an amusement park from my summer bucket list. We went in the evening so we could get on rides at a discounted price. The Boardwalk was more crowded than I had anticipated, so it was more challenging to get on five rides than I thought it would be. However ,I was able to do exactly five rides. Those rides were the carousel , the sea swings, space race, tsunami, and sky glider. I also got some souvenirs, including a super cute plush bear, and I also got pizza! I’m going to be honest the long lines made it kind of difficult to fully enjoy the night, but it was overall a good summer night. This is a really great amusement park that I highly recommend going to, but make sure to visit during a less busy time so you can get to experience all the rides here that you want to.
Hello, my bucket list, friends! As I continue on my journey to catch up with my blog posts, I’m excited to say that I’ve gotten through the long vacation posts and the other posts I have left to write should not take much time. However, I still have lots of fun summer adventures to share with you. With all that being said, let’s get to a fun post about the 4th of July!
July 4th – I love the fourth of July! It is such a fun holiday! It is all about celebrating the great country that I’m very blessed to have been born in. To celebrate the fourth of July, my parents and I went to an event that included a concert and fireworks! The opening act at the concert was a very talented singer named Levi Hummon. I had so much fun dancing to his songs! I recommend checking him out! After he was done with his part of the concert. I got to meet him! He was such a nice guy, and I got a picture of us together! Later on in the night, there was an amazing fireworks show! I love the fireworks show that this venue puts on every year! It is always amazing, and I really enjoyed watching it this year. It was a wonderful summer night! I hope all my fellow Americans had a great time celebrating this holiday as well!
Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m excited to write this post about my 2nd vacation of the summer! I had a great time exploring the beautiful state of Tennessee, and I can’t wait to tell you more about it, so here we go!
June 25th
This was the day that my 2nd vacation of the summer began. It was a day where we went on two flights and then we landed in Nashville. We did not do much on the first night, of course, but I did get some fun souvenirs because we made a stop at a store before going to our hotel. Oh, we got a really cool rental car it was a BMW, and it was fun to ride around in that during our vacation, and I kind of miss it! Well, that is it for day one. Now, on to day two.
June 26th
This was the first full day of this vacation, and we had a few activities planned. In the morning we went on a bus tour of Nashville. Our tour stopped at this really neat place that had stores and other businesses. I had fun doing a free moonshine tasting and going shopping, of course. I got a cute book called Hello, Nashville. I pick up books from this series when I see them. I really enjoyed this tour. Our next adventure was going to the Tennessee State Museum. This free museum is full of many interesting things that have to do with the state of Tennessee. I recommend visiting this museum if you happen to be close to it. After that, we got some food before going to our second tour of the day. Our second tour of the day was the Grand Ole Opry. This was an exciting tour that was full of music history. I find it exciting to be in a place that you have seen on TV . My favorite part of the tour was getting to see all the dressing rooms backstage. That night, we went out to two different bars in Nashville. We also went to a souvenir store and a candy store. I love going shopping at souvenir stores, and Nashville has some really good ones. It was a great vacation day!
June 27th
This was the day that we left Nashville and visited three fun attractions. Those attractions were Rock City , the Incline Railway , and Ruby Falls. Rock City is a very interesting attraction that has great views and lots of fun art based on fairy tales. The incline railway is an attraction that I really recommend visiting if you get the chance to. I never knew that a train could go on a track that were steep. When the train gets to the top, you are rewarded with beautiful views and a gift shop. The ride back down is pretty amazing as well. Our third attraction of the day was the beautiful Ruby Falls. Before going on our tour we got some lunch at the cafeteria. The flatbread that I had there was really good. Going down to the caves was exciting, and the falls were truly beautiful. I also highly recommend this beautiful and thrilling attraction. This was a day that was full of adventure.
June 28th
On this day, we did one of my favorite things to do while traveling, we went to the zoo. We went to the Chattanooga Zoo. This zoo is on the small side, but don’t let that stop you from exploring it. I got to see some very cute and interesting animals, including a red panda, a snake neck turtle, meerkats, and a tortoise. I got to feed a giraffe, that was a lot of fun. I also got to ride the beautiful carousel here twice. I loved that the horse I rode on had a purple ribbon on it. Our second adventure of the day was going to the Lost Sea adventure. This attraction is where you get to visit an underground lake. It was truly amazing to get to ride on a boat underground. I recommend visiting this exciting attraction if you get the chance to.
Thank you for reading this part of my Tennessee adventure.
Hello, my bucket list, friends! I’m still pretty far from being caught up with my blogging, but I’m excited to write this post! I’m not sure of the year that this tradition began, but every summer, I do what I call a mall weekend. On Friday I go shopping at the Dollar Tree and on Saturday I go shopping at the mall. I had a great time this year, and I’m excited to tell you more about it, so here we go!
June 21st
This was the day I went to the Dollar Tree. My friend joined me for my mall weekend this year. I went to my favorite local Dollar Tree store. I like this location because it is a good size and it is always clean. I got some fun items, including Ty Plush Key chains, sand toys, stickers, a Barbie workbook, puppy in my pocket toys, home decor, and pens. This location has a good selection of items. I love the cross decoration that I got. Some other items I got on my Dollar tree shopping spree were a box of crayons, a pack of paper fans, a pack of frog party favors, and a note book with a Bible verse on the cover. It was a fun and successful start to mall weekend!
June 22nd
Today was the big day! It was officially my mall day! When I got to the mall I went to Claires. I got some hair bows and other cute items! I went to many different stores during my mall shopping spree, including Old Navy and Hallmark. I also went to the Target that is attached to the mall. I got so many fun items from various stores. Some of the items I got were stickers, including barbie stickers, a Barbie mug, hair bows, a sand art kit, cups shaped like pineapples, and more! I also made a new plush bear at Build a Bear Workshop. I love going to Build a Bear Workshop on my mall weekends! I was so happy that I saw the bright and colorful bear that I wanted to make. I named my bear tropical sunshine. She is an awesome addition to my collection. Another thing I did was to go to the Taco Bell at the food court. As you can tell, I had a really good mall weekend, and I got a lot of items and I also had fun taking pictures in the photobooth!
