the newlywed's bucket list...

First off, my apologies for neglecting the blogworld. I've yet to post on Domestic Chic or sweet Tupelo Honey in quite awhile... I promise I will get better at it one of these days...

And second, I came across an article on "The Nest" yesterday that I wanted to share. I rarely visit this site, but when I receive the daily emails, sometimes the subjects spark my interest.

As a newlywed, I'm frequently asked, "When do you think you will have kids??!"... And my answer is usually, not for awhile :). We love kiddos, but currently we have 10 (yes, TEN!) nieces and nephews to get our baby fill, so I think we're set for a few more years. And plus, we came to the conclusion that there are many "to do's" left on our newlywed bucket list. Keep reading for our list...

Here's a few from the Nest and a few of our own. I hope we can cross all these off!

1) make a list of all the restaurants/bars in your city that you'd like to visit
Bobby and I love to go out to dinner and out on the town. And with kids, we'll certainly miss the spontaneity of going out to dinner on the fly. So we definitely want to tackle this one.

2) take a roadie
We've been wanting to do this for awhile. Probably a road trip to Chicago for a Cubs game and some shopping. We're hoping to cross this one off this fall...

3) appreciate the bathroom alone
This one is too funny. But important! With only one bathroom in our tiny bungalow, I know this is going to be interesting.

4) travel abroad
Neither of us were able to study abroad in college, so a trip to Europe is in sight. We hope. ;)

5) go back to Hawaii
We had the most amazing honeymoon in Maui... I'd like to re-live that trip in the next couple of years. (Thank goodness for Bobby's frequent flyer miles!)

6) be spontaneous
We say this to each other a lot. Feel like going to the lake this weekend? Why not pick up and head out on a Friday afternoon... Sounds great to me!

7) spend an entire day in bed watching movies together
Bobby knows me well. When I sent him the article, he knew immediately that this is the "to do" that sold me on the article. I love lazy days. Bobby loves Netflix. It's a perfect combination.

So there you go, what would you add to your "bucket list?"
