I used to do gymnastics all of the time when I was a kid. I was carefree, agile, and ready to try anything once! I used to be able to at least attempt to do a handstand, but now I’m too terrified of breaking my neck… SO it’s my new goal to learn how to do a handstand before I turn 25! That gives me two years to practice! Until then, join me on my quest by following these simple steps:
I seriously LOVE museums. I like to go as often as possible…ok so maybe once or twice a year, but seriously, how often can one go to the museum? Anyway, I love the ROM in Toronto, I recent visited their North American Dinosaur exhibit and it was AMAZING! Here’s a list of some of the world’s most famous museums that I want to visit!

I’m a total foodie, I love to try new things and new flavours, although I’ll admit, I have my meals that I order EVERYTIME I go to certain restaurants, and I really want to start branching out even MORE. But today is all about different delicacies that I definitely want to try before I die…

OK, I believe that there are 3 MARVELOUS kisses that everyone needs to experience, and YES these are on my bucket list. Is it too much to ask for MMM Kisses? MMM as in Magical Movie Moment. These are my top 3 kisses that EVERYONE needs to perfect before it’s TOO LATE!
1. PERFECT MISTLETOE KISS
Private and romantic. Also is allowed to be TOTALLY cheesy and adorable.
2. PERFECT NEW YEAR’S KISS
Public and passionate! This is a romantic time because it’s a huge milestone! A new year together! Amazing locations are a plus!
3. WEDDING KISS!
Well only the most memorable kiss of your LIFETIME. This is bound to be perfect anyway, so no rules!
These are absolutely on my bucket list, and I don’t care how long it takes! Hahaha, maybe I’m crazy, but I want to have my life feel like a movie sometimes! Don’t settle for anything less than the best, because YOU DESERVE IT! So get out there and do some kissin’!
I don’t care what you say, Autumn is the best season. Ever. It’s not too hot, it’s not too cold. The colours are beautiful. The clothes during this season rule. There are so many awesome fun things to do in the Fall!! And last but not least, if I have not convinced you yet, I have three words for you: Pumpkin. Spice. Lattes. Anyway, I always get so excited for all of the things I want to do during the Fall, and then one day I wake up and it’s Winter… well NOT this year! So here’s my list of things I want to do this season, and I will probably review some of the things I end up doing throughout the next few months! Hope you get inspired to go out and enjoy the season as well!
1. Make a delicious butternut squash soup from scratch.
2. Carve a pumpkin.
3. Have a fall backyard bonfire.
4. Have a photo shoot in the leaves.
5. Bake a pumpkin pie from scratch.
6. Knit a headband for winter. Continue reading
Hey everybody! I figured that I should probably explain “To Do Thursdays” before I get started. “To Do Thursdays” are all about…well you guessed it: things to do! Some things are future to-do’s, a.k.a. for the old Bucket List, and others are things you can do this weekend! I’m not just about crafts and beauty, you have to be able to get out there and enjoy life too!
OK, so let me tell you about the “Disney Princess Half Marathon”! It’s really cool, it’s a 13.1 mile course running through the Magic Kingdom and Epcot parks. There is entertainment and characters scattered throughout the course, I mean really, how fun is that? But that’s not all! Participants also receive a “Champion” shirt, Disney Princess bag, tiara shaped finishing medal, and lots of other cool things! Something else that’s fun is you can do the marathon as a 2-princess team! When you run as a team you get addition prizes including commemorative sashes, a team photo, and, as another bonus, you’re eligible for Team awards!
Now if you don’t think you’re quite up for the challenge of a half marathon, there’s also the “Disney Enchanted 10K”! A 10K run or walk through Epcot with the same magical finish! OR if you’re REALLY up for a challenge, you can do both, which is called the “Glass Slipper Challenge” where you win the Glass Slipper finishing medal. Want to get your whole family involved? Do the “Cinderella Royal Family 5K”! Don’t want to get involved? Sign your kids up for the “runDisney Kids Races”. Seriously, there are options for everyone. After all of the races are over there is a “Happily Ever After Party” at Downtown Disney for all of the participants and their guests. Looking for a pre-marathon event? Enjoy breakfast with the Disney princesses at the weekend brunch beforehand.
These races fill up pretty quickly, in fact, the 2014 races are already sold out. The races take place in February, so the best timeto sign up is the year before in July or August (and if you register before August 13th it only costs $160 instead of $190).
All in all, I think this is one of the coolest things ever and I definitely have it on my Bucket List! This is a definite TO DO!
