Our Summer Bucket List

Thank you Tillamook for sponsoring this post. Visit your local Publix to purchase everything you need to create the perfect summer party featuring Tillamook ice cream.

I love summer. Like, love love summer. I shared on my Instagram Story how much I enjoy summer break. I know it’s an unpopular opinion because the kids are home and bugging for snacks all day long. But for me, it’s a break from the strict school schedule. I’m a pretty punctual person who loves routines, but I hate early mornings, and I hate rushed evenings. Summer break gives us a nice change. We can sleep in till whatever time we want. We can randomly do whatever we want during the day (beach trips, the pool, playgrounds, or vacations). We can stay up late eating our favorite Tillamook ice cream, and go to bed at 10 pm, because why not?

Today, I’d like to share our summer bucket list, and maybe you’ll get some ideas on things to do as well. Before I share, however, I’m going to talk to you about our favorite treat that we love to end our evenings with.

Tillamook Ice-Cream:

We are loving Tillamook ice cream sold at Publix. They make their ice cream with the highest quality ingredients, basically, that means the best milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones–thank goodness, extra cream for rich–yum, smooth creaminess and no high fructose corn syrup–that stuff is no bueno. I am a sucker for a good bowl of ice cream, and I thank my mom for my sweet tooth. When we go to Publix, the kids immediately run to the freezer aisle and pick out their favorite Tillamook ice cream. They have over 30 flavors to choose from, there is something for everyone. Our favorite is Old Fashioned Vanilla– and we love putting toppings all over, especially strawberries..

Make sure you visit your local Publix this summer from June 15-July 13 for special in-store promotions and to purchase Tillamook ice cream and everything else you need to keep the kiddos happy this summer.

So there we have it, that is the Bonnaire Family Bucket List. I hope by reading this list, I was able to inspire you to create your own family bucket list. Our kiddos are only little for so long, and as crazy and chaotic as it is, “these are the days” and these are the memories our kids will laugh and talk about when they are grown up (insert crying emoji because I can’t handle the fact that they are growing up).
