Bucket List

Bucket List

while at the MIL's we saw The Bucket List. It had some ugly words in it, but all in all it was a good movie in the aspect of coming to terms with life, death, and what all we hope to accomplish before going HOME.

Not to be outdone, I am starting to compile my very own BUCKET LIST.
NO, I'm not dying...but just a little bit every day :)
