NWR Bucket List

mancila60

So I know we all have a bucket list or at least things we want to do in life. What is the #1 thing you want to do or accomplish in your life?

Ooh, it's so hard to pick a #1. It's a toss up between achieving true financial freedom, and finally finishing school to become a MD. Of all the things  I want to do/accomplish, those are the two that I feel MUST happen, no matter what it takes.

You OP?

I have already half-completed my #1 thing I want to accomplish in life, & that's getting married & having kids! I will be married in less than 2 months & me & FI already have a son

So, next on my list of things to accomplish is finishing school! One thing on my bucket list that is a little less serious is I want to go sky-diving!

I want to have kids. That is my #1 as most of you know I have medicial issues they may prevent me from having kids. It has always been my dream to have my own and one of these days I know it will happen.

I would also like to travel to somewhere out of the country other than Mexico I feel that is just so close it's pretty normal. I would to go to like Paris or Spain.

Besides getting married and having kids, it is a dream of mine to go France during the Tour de france and follow it around for a few stages (most importantly a mountain stage and finish in Paris). This has been a lifelong dream since I was a kid watching the Tour. We were going to try to go for our honeymoon, but it was too expensive for the way we want to do it, plus with buying a house and a wedding in a short amount of time, it just isn't possible. Some day.....

Aw, I'll be praying for you on that one. I also have medical issues that will likely prevent me from having kids (I did get pregnant once years ago, but miscarried, and my doc doesn't think it'll happen again). But b/c I'm not sure I even want kids, it's not a big deal for now. It's a little depressing, but bearable. I couldn't imagine dealing with my condition if kids were #1 on my list though. FI really wants kids and I feel guilty already that I can't do it (surrogacy is the plan if/when we decide to have them). I really hope you get what you want :)

I really want to buy a house, have babies and get two master's degrees. However, money doesn't grow on trees and I feel like I'll only be able to do two of the three (dropping the Masters).

For fun things I'd love to go sky diving and go to Italy. I'd also love to get some tattoos but I'm not sure I have the guts.

I'd love to travel to Sicily with my dad so he can show me where he was born.

hmm this is tough...
we want to own a house, etc. but that's not really a "bucket list" item for me b/c it has to happen, lol...so I'm going to say:

An African safari in Botswana... (totally wanted to do this for the honeymoon but the $ is SO expensive) however I really want to travel Europe too.

Shari 86

I want to take a year with my family and travel around the world. However not realistic unless I home school DD. Maybe once she is all grown up!

A more realistic buket list list would be to Travel with DD all over the world on school holidays. lol  

We plan to do Europe with her once she is 10. My mom was born in France and we always said we would all go back to see where she use to live. Plus what girl doesn't love Paris??

I did this about 3 years ago and it was absolutely amazing! I can't wait to go again with FI so he can experience how amazing it is :)

As for my list, I really want to travel Poland to see where all of my family is from. I would love to go with my grandparents but I don't know if financially that will ever happen.

I would say getting married and having kids... but right now I really just want a job!

kimberlykh

Probably having a baby and finally finishing grad school.

My #1 thing is to walk on a beach. I live in a small town in Utah and would love to go to Cali and walk on the beach and smell the ocean!!! Also I would like to see the redwood trees. My mom went and she said it was the most humbling things she ever experienced!

I love this!  I've lived in California my whole life, so I have done this many times.  (I guess I kind of take the proximaty to the ocean for granted) I have never been to Utah & one of the places I would like to travel is to the wonderful National Parks there.  I guess the grass is always greener.  <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /> I wish you much luck in crossing that item off your bucket list.  You will love it.  Check out the Giant Sequioas while you are in CA.  Also amazing. They are related to the coastal redwoods.

I have a lot of fun little things on my bucket list but the #1 one thing that I want to do is be a mom.
