Summer Bucket list 2017 // 2018

-

Summer is my favourite season! Then Autumn, but I'm not thinking about that now. Now it's time for sunshine and summer breezes.
These are some thing I would like to do in this season!


  • Swim in the sea. We didn't really do this last summer. Normally it was too cold and we live more in land so it's about an hours drive to a beach. 
  • Lie on the grass and read. I know pretty simple but we have a really nice tree that has good shade so it is perfect to sit under.
  • Eat lots of icy things. 
  • Go berry picking. Waking up early, wet grass, sneaking berries as you go and earning a few dollars!
  • Ride on my bike.
  • Put flowers in my hair/make a flower crown
  • Make my own sorbet. I love sorbet because it is lighter and more refreshing than ice cream.
  • Watch a sunrise and photograph it.
  • Toast marshmallows over a fire outdoors.
  • Pick flowers on the side of the road if I can find some.
  • Do a foot bath and pedicure.
  • Cook a perfect BBQ. Last time I did this I burnt the patties a bit so I want to skip the burning part this time!
  • Eat outside as often as possible. I love eating outside. We have a lovely tree which is perfect for sitting under in the shade.
  • Go to new river spots. Rivers are really nice to swim in because the water isn't salty (I hate that about the sea. Yuck!) and I just like them better. The only problem is the mosquitoes that eat you alive. Ugh, Mosquitoes!
  • Build a sand man instead of a snowman.
  • Have lots of iced tea and coffee.
  • Try grilled fruit kebabs.
  • Harvest produce from our garden.
  • Read the Christy Miller Volumes I own.
  • Decorate my room all summery.

What do you like to do in the summer? What are you doing now in the winter(for the readers on the other side of the world)?

    I love the beach! But where swimming is concerned...I prefer a pool to anything else. Rivers, lakes, etc. bother me, and I refuse to swim in them. I don't mind swimming in the ocean, however. (I know, I'm weird that way.)

    Summer fruits and flowers, sand and sunshine...*sigh*. That sounds so nice right now since it is 30 degrees here! Though there are good parts about winter, like ice skating and watching the snow fall fom the window with a book and hot drink and of course all the lights and Christmas decorations. Still don't like the cold.

    I hope you enjoy a beautiful summer and check off every item on your list. It's hard for me to imagine having Christmas in the summer!:)

August Favourites

Wow, August has come to an end already! I am so excited that Spring is basically here now. The sunny weather and longer days have really done something to my creative juices, which seemed to be hibernating during winter and now there are awake and flowing again. Books The Beautiful Pretender by Melanie Dickerson My goodness, I enjoyed this book so much! I have a full review in the works but I definitely had to mention it in this post. It's like the second book its series(Medieval Fairytale series). I have just started the third and final book, The Noble Servant and it is equally as intriguing as The Beautiful Pretender. And the cover of TBP....so pretty! Sarah, Plain, and Tall by Patricia MacLachlan This book has become a new all-time favourite of mine! I found this on audiobook on my library's app and since I'd seen the movies a long time ago I decided to give it a go and get a boost on my Goodreads reading challenge. But I never would have known how much

She is called Daughter

                                                                      She stood there. Watching. Waiting and dreaming.  Watching the wind toss the branches of the trees. Waiting in the stillness. And dreaming of things still to come. She adored the sweet solace she found on that quiet hill.  How the dainty flowers that grew there, bobbing back and forth in the breeze. For many years she had come here and always to escape the crowd. How they pushed and pulled her; it filled her head with fog. So she came to the quiet hill that felt closer to the sky, to have heavenly conversations with the Father of her heart.  Sometimes she would just sit and think.  Other times she might sing. Often she would pick armfuls of blossoms. But always she knew whose watchful eye was over her and she'd smile at the thought. It was while she was standing there dreaming, that when the breezes stilled, she heard the grasses rustling at her side. She saw a figure approaching,

Why I Want To Be A Mother & Homemaker

Hello darlings! I'm going to warn you now, what I am about to say in this post might be a little controversial and many women today wouldn't share my opinions on these topics. But I have decided to go ahead and share what is on my heart about being a mother & homemaker and I hope that you find it interesting and inspiring all the same. My reason for speaking about this is because I think its something that is unpopular but necessary in today's society and the women that do want to pursue the life of a mother/homemaker often feel alone in their choice of lifestyle. My Life Dream If you were to ask me what my biggest dream in life is, my answer wouldn't be to have a great career and a fancy apartment in the city. No, my answer would be this, that my dream is to become a wife and mother and create a home in the country where we can grow our own food, live naturally and simply and let my kids grow up getting dirty and playing outdoors. We'd have som
