summer to-do's

(via)

I’m a total list lover--I've always got lists going on my phone, next to my bed, in my email, etc. And since it’s summer, what better than a wish list of fun things I want to accomplish before the colder weather returns? I can't wait to check them each off! Some are straightforward, some are things I want to do again and again, and some are total throwbacks to when I was a kid (when summer was the best time of the year). Here's my list of fun things to do in the summer months... what's on your list?

1. Bike rides
