we're on vacation! summer bucket list update

Um okay so when did July happen??  I'm sort of feeling like I blinked and August has shown up.  But that being said the month of July was action packed with fun.  Awhile back I decided that I was going to make the most of my remaining months off with Liam, the result was our summer bucket list (original post).  Seeing as summer is half way done and I'm back to work in a matter of weeks (eek!!) I thought it was time to do a quick bucket list update.  (crossed off things we've done...not going to add anything just in case we run out of time)

Our list:
