Winter Bucket List Update #3

And on to 2020! Let’s start the year off right with some fun and some organization!

  1. Read 45 books — I want to start off the year strong with my reading!

  2. Plan and execute a fun Valentine’s Day Party -

  3. Buy and Complete a jigsaw puzzleI love doing puzzles to relax. I need to find a new good one.

  4. Eat at 5 new-to-me restaurants — Omaha has so many great restaurants and I want to explore a bit!

  5. Attend two theater performances — Our membership to the Rose Theater gets us free tickets to two shows and discounted tickets to one show this season. Now to pick what to see!

  6. Bake some bread — I love fresh homemade bread with some jam or honey and a cup of tea. Winter means baking to me, but I want to branch out from cookies…

  7. Make winter crafts — We can’t really spend a lot of time outside, so it’s prime time for crafting. I need to peruse Pinterest for some ideas.

  8. Create a table centerpiece — I want to decorate the house a bit more now that we’re out of the baby stage. I think I’ll start with the dining room table.

  9. Movie Month January — I’m going to start the season off right with an entire month of (mostly) new-to-me movies!

  10. Weekly Game Day/Night with Arthur — We have a ton of card and board games at the house. I want to start playing more regularly with Arthur.

  11. Try 3 new hot chocolate recipes/mixes — Arthur discovered his love of hot chocolate over Christmas. Let’s explore a bit!

  12. Visit two new-to-the-boys museums — I’m thinking probably SAC and The Durham.

  13. Have an indoor picnic — Weather doesn’t allow for outside ones of course.

  14. Swim at the gym 5 times — The indoor pool is great, let’s attempt to utilize it this season!

  15. Host a tea party! — Part of my attempt to make some new friends.

  16. Make a seasonal door hanger/wreath — We have a hook on our door. I want to decorate it!

  17. Find a great coffee shop for me! — Not Starbucks, not Scooter’s. Something local and interesting.

  18. Spend an afternoon at a local bookstore — I need to find a go-to place for browsing.

  19. Explore an area of Omaha — Really anywhere that’s outside of our little area of town.
