I really had never given much thought to a “Bucket List” (possibly never even heard of it) until I saw the movie “A Walk To Remember” with Mandy Moore & Shane West.  Do you remember that movie?  If you haven’t and your into romantic movies and don’t mind a good cry, you should watch it.

Besides the fact that I was in tears at the end of it all, I had decided that I would also come up with my own list of things I would love to do before I kick the bucket (Hence the name “Bucket List”).  I would often add to my list in my mind but I have decided that I would write it down and make it my goal to do them all.  After all, it is great to have dreams and goals!

So, I gave it some thought and here’s what I have on my Bucket List so far:

  • Make a difference in the world
  • Visit the grave of my uncle in Canada with my family
  • Be in 2 places at once (yes, I got this from the movie)
  • Be in 4 places at once (I totally want to visit the 4 corners)
  • Visit each one of the 50 states (The ones I have already visited are listed below)
  • Family trip to Jerusalem
  • Couples trip to Africa, for an African Safari Adventure
  • Skydiving
  • Take a ride on a hot air balloon ride
  • Go Zip Lining
  • Take a ride in a blimp
  • Take a family cruise to Alaska
  • Experience Hawaii with my husband
  • Visit the Niagara Falls
  • Go whale watching
  • Be in a movie
  • Have a radio or TV show
  • Dance with Ellen DeGeneres
  • Stare at Vin Diesel in person
  • Make “The Rock” Sweat
  • Shadow Casting Crowns for a day and ask them all the questions
  • Hang out with Kevin Hart
  • Play a game with Jimmy Fallon, like one of the ones he does on his TV show
  • Have a conversation with Tiffany Haddish
  • Go Glamping
  • Go swimming with the pigs
  • Swim with the dolphins
  • Swim with the Sting Rays
  • Be in a TV commercial

  • Be in a Magazine
  • Walk the red carpet like a celebrity
  • Visit as many parts of the world as I can (The ones I have visited are listed below)
  • Travel back in time

I am sure I’ll keep adding to my list…a girl’s gotta dream and reach for the stars right? If you think that you can help me scratch off any of these bucket list items, please feel free to contact me at Leanette@FuntasticLife.com
