What’s on Your Seasonal Bucket-List?
I saw a sign that asked, “What’s on Your Seasonal Bucket-List” in the window of a travel agency recently, and it made me think for a bit. I never really made a seasonal bucket list! Why not though, it might be fun!! So here are some of the things I came up with to see if anyone else has any similar to mine!!
* Attend at least one craft show
* Buy a pumpkin and carve it for Thanksgiving! (How about “Grateful”?)
* Try a new recipe for Thanksgiving dinner
* Invite someone to Thanksgiving who might otherwise be alone
* Volunteer at a soup-kitchen
* Provide a meal for a needy family
* Bake pumpkin cookies and decorate them with a child
* Secretly leave some of those cookies on your neighbor’s front porch!
* Visit an elderly person in a nursing home
* Make a Thanksgiving card for a soldier overseas
* Decorate your porch or lamp post with cornstalks
* String up orange lights
* Make a fire in your wood-burning fireplace
* Light pumpkin candles
* Instead of turning on the TV after Thanksgiving dinner, get out a board game and play
* Turn off your phone all day on Thanksgiving after everyone has arrived
* Let your kids help make pumpkin pies
* Bring out the orange towels!
* Put out a bowl of candy corn on the counter
* Bob for apples
* Make caramel apples
* Make some caramel corn
* Go Thanksgiving grocery shopping in a turkey hat
* Make a Thanksgiving video with everyone around the table holding handmade signs of what they’re thankful for, then send it to those who couldn’t be there
* Decorate with mini pumpkins and gourds
* Make place cards for those who are coming to dinner, and on the inside write why your thankful for each person
* Take a family hike
* Go to church
