BEEN TO ANY CONCERTS?

Tiffany: 
 I've been to lots of concerts.  Growing up in Phoenix, the two local country stations would compete for the best guests at their "Summer Jams".  Then, when I was 11, and moved to California, the local pop/hip hop station, always had "Spring Jams".  So let's see, I've seen; Alabama, Garth Brooks, Crystal Gale, Colin Raye, Tracy Lawrence, Julie Brown, Billy Dean, Clint Black, Bobby Brown, Marky Mark, Shanice, Jeremy Jordan, Joey Lawrence, Color Me Badd (twice), Salt n Pepa, CeCe Peniston, DJ Quick, I know there are more, but I can't think of any right now.  Does So You Think You Can Dance, the tour, count? I also, took my kids to see Hannah Montana's Dad, (Billy Ray Cyrus to my generation) and the Lieutenant Dan Band, and my, then 6 year old daughter, got to dance on stage with Gary Sinise.

Melanie:
Okay, I'll own up to it. My first concert was Debbie Gibson. That's right. My musical taste has improved but I've only been to a few concerts that don't have middle school in the name. Salt-N-Pepa, The Moody Blues, Candlebox, Toad the Wet Sprocket, and my all time favorite......Dave Matthews Band, twice! Dave at the Gorge in George, Wa. are the best concerts, by far.

SOMETHING YOU'VE BEEN PUTTING OFF

Tiffany:

I've been putting off lots of things.  Why do today, what you could put off until tomorrow?  I guess the biggest thing I've been putting off is getting in shape.  I really need to start exercising, and eating healthier.  I just dislike that stuff sooo much.  Oh yeah, and cleaning.  Cleaning and I are not friends.

Melanie: 

We've been sick around here so blogging, crafting, and cleaning have all taken a back seat to cuddles and Dr. Appointments. I'm trying to turn that all around but I feel like there aren't enough hours in the day. This too shall pass.

2. See my kids all grown and happy.
3. Be debt free. Sooner rather than later.
4. Visit a country that isn't Canada.

8. Go shopping and buy anything I want to, without guilt.
9. See the Wonders of the World.
10. Visit a Lindt Chocolate shop! Lol
11. Own a Mini Cooper. I know this one may seem silly, but needing an 8 passenger vehicle makes a small car a dream.
12. Take an amazing family vacation.
13. Have a kitchen with all the best tools. What I could do with professional equipment. My husband would roll his eyes at this one.
14. I'd also love to do a pin up photo shoot.
15. Own most everything at Ulta.   
16. Build an amazing spa bathroom in my room. I've got the room. Just need the funds. 
17. Buy the lot next door. It's a long shot, as they want twice its value, and banks won't finance it. Must be on their bucket list. "Sell property for double it's value."
18. Have a chef, maid, personal trainer, and pool boy. Since we bought the property next door......we put in a pool. 
19. Take cooking lessons. I'm a good cook but I could be more adventurous.
20. See the Northern Lights. 
21. Learn to ski.
22. Fly in a hot air balloon.
23. Visit Phuket, Thailand.

25. Get an amazing, total, makeover by someone equal to the task.
26. Followed by a completely new wardrobe.
27. Spend a week at an amazing spa getaway. Somewhere with hot springs.
28. Take dancing lessons with my husband. I've always wanted to learn swing dancing. 
29. Learn to crochet. I've tried and I suck. 
30. Take a vacation with no itinerary. Someone else can be in charge, and I can just go along for the ride. No decisions. Just awesome fun and new experiences. 

Mine seems simple in comparison. So what's on you bucket list?
