Yes, that's 2 movies in 1 week, but the weather has been horrible and Mommy and Daddy have to shop for a new house!

Bucket List #4 -- Bowling
Since the boys have never been bowling before, this was a no-brainer for our Bucket List. We gathered up some friends one stormy afternoon and got to it! The boys caught on quickly (thanks to the bumper lanes) and bowled several stikes throughout the afternoon. Logan found yet another competition and challenge while Gavin enjoyed the title of "Fastest Bowler" (strongest), so smiles were abundant. Only Keegan got cranky after awhile..it always has to be one of them...and I think he is missing his daily pre-school naps.
Bucket List #2 -- Go Fishin'
We ventured over to Lake Hall (one of our favorite swimming holes) to participate in a city-sponsored Kids Fishing Day. They worked the kids through various stations (knot tying, safety, baiting the hook, etc.) with a grand finale of fishing off the dock using hot dogs as bait. No, we didn't catch anything, but Logan will tell you that he "ALMOST" caught a fish like TONS of times!
Gavin wins the casting contest! He's a natural!
And Logan wins a door prize! I wish I could say it was that Allison family luck, but we all know it's because that Lucky Coddington came along for the ride!
Worm gruntin'. Yes, this is real. It's a work of art down here.
See...I told you it was real!
After we grew tired of fishing, we enjoyed some fun in the sun, had a picnic lunch, and cooled off in the lake.
The boys met some friends and quickly conquered their boat!
Our Summer Bucket List appears to be off to a great start.

Allison Family 100 Summer Bucket List
This summer, the kids and I decided to sit down and create a bucket list of 100 things we'd like to do together. Some are simple and easy to do, some require a bit more thought and preparation. Some are silly, and some will help us remember to do unto others and never forget to count our blessings. All are bound to be fun and create a summer full of memories. Join us as we tackle these one item at a time over the next three months.

Dakota Buckette
This little lady followed the B.U.C.K.S. around during a recent camping trip. She appeared to belong to someone, but after a lengthy search for her owners, Troy and Jonathan returned to Tallahassee with her in tow. Dakota Buckette briefly called the Allison house her home as we tried to find her owners some more. But she proved to be quite the little escape artist (which was probably why she lost her owners in the first place), and her stay at our house was short lived. It's too bad, really. She was a great dog and made an excellent running partner. But the timing was a bit off with our house hitting the market and Keegan was scared of her. Still, she made us smile.
I saw it on pinterest
My awesome homemade teacher gifts! The cards on top say, "Thank you for quenching my thirst for knowledge" and have little individual Crystal Light packets inside. Well, I thought it was pretty awesome and that I was pretty stinking talented until Gavin came in and said, "Oh, cool! That's just like the one Michael gave Mrs. M. today!!!" Curse you, Pinterest!
going bananas
Logan rocks at reading! He got this awesome banana trophy for earning 100 AR point this year!
