I’m one of those people that lives for a holiday (you either love us or hate us). I’m the friend who’s always planning new activities, looking up fun events, or planning a new adventure, all while simultaneously trying to get everyone else to go and do them with me. I try to squeeze in as many things as I can to really make myself feel like I’m getting the most out of the season. To be honest, I think it’s me trying to recreate the holiday magic that I always felt as a kid. Once you turn into an adult, the magic just isn’t the same. So instead of just going through the motions, I really try to stop and take in as much of a holiday or season as I can. One way I like to do that is to create a checklist! I make a list of all the things I want to do that make me feel the “magic” again. The items change based on the holiday, or the season, and can be new things I’ve never done before, or classic go-to traditions that I make sure to accomplish each year. Today, I’m sharing my printable winter activity checklist with you guys!
Red, White, and BREW: 4th of July Beer Tasting Party
If you’re looking for a fun and different way to celebrate the fourth of July this year, I have the perfect party idea that is so much fun and easy to put together at the last minute too! Get ready to celebrate with some red, white, and BREW! This 4th of July beer tasting party is a great way to get all of your friends together, head outside, and celebrate America’s birthday with a cold one! 😉
Printable Picnic Blanket Bingo
Summer wouldn’t be complete without one or two outdoor concerts on my schedule, but with that also comes spilled drinks, over affectionate couples, and that ONE person taking up tons of room for a group! Ugh. The worst! If the concert alone wasn’t enough fun for you, I’m sharing this printable outdoor picnic blanket bingo to keep your and your fellow concert goers entertained leading up to the start of the big event!
DIY Fruit Vases
I’m flying out to sunny LA today to celebrate my little sister’s birthday. She’s turning the big 3-0 and we’re celebrating with surf, sand, sips, and some fun adventures along the way (like a wine safari…who knew?!) Bring on the palm trees! Because I’m feeling a little tropical lately, I wanted to share an easy way to bring a little tropical flair to your next event. These DIY fruit vases make the prettiest little table centerpiece when lined up together, or a fun statement when displayed apart. However you choose to display them, they’re so much fun!
