Ok so ages ago Corts Godparents said to me to write down what I wanted to do before I die, to write a bucket list.
I then watched the movie which I think you should all watch and came up with a list of my own.
Well next week on Thursday at 2.30pm I am going to cross one of them off.
Next Thursday is my Angel Neice Kaytlens 9th Birthday, so my sister and I are going to go and jump off the Harbour bridge! So excited and scared and excited.
And just cause I am crossing these things off I am not planning on going no where fast...Do not stress Manda, I plan to be here to come have coffee and bore ya more yet, cann ot get rid of me that easy...lol

So what are some of the things other people would like to do before they pass on?
I have a small list so far of things tat I could achieve and an even bigger one of things that I doubt will ever happen.

Ok here goes.
Learn to Juggle (silly I know but I really want to)
Go for a Hot air balloon ride
Go in a Helicopter
Go in a Stunt plane
Bungee jumping
Swim with the Dolphins in the ocean
Go whale watchinga nd have film in the camera...ok digi with me...long story)
Go to Ozzie and 'meet' my daughter
Do a boat cruise of the Islands
Take my kiddies to the theme parks in Oz
Go to Disneyland with Kita and Cort
Oh the list goes on, way too many things to go any time soon

oh and take a pottery glass or learn to sculpt
Always Loved the movie ghost...lol

Hmmm... will have to do some serious thinking about this one...


BTW love the film Ghost too, but only if Patrick Swayze could come and "teach" me to do pottery

Ok I'll play.

*Have Lisa and Cort over for minimum 1000 more coffees
*Return to Plantation Island with Gabe and Lols (where we had our honeymoon).
*Hey Lisa, could always do a combined trip to Aussie I wanna go with the kids too, prob when G's around Ls age.
*go and meet the Lions at Zion and touch one of them (been my childhood dream to hold/touch a lion).
*Do a dualthalon or Triathalon (depends on how game I'm feeling).
*learn how to make good edible custard (don't laugh Lisa)

There's more but I've got a grumpy boy here, better go.

Oh I watched the Bucket List on Saturday night, such a great movie!!!!!

Manda, don't go to Zion, If you are going to go to Australia go to tiger island and do it there. oh, you said lions aye...oh close enough. Just before I had my op we went and fed the tigers at ham zoo. was very cool

K Lisa, next time I see you I'll teach you how to juggle. I'm not very good at it, but I know the basics (3 balls). How's that?
And Aidan can show Cort the walking thing.

Hmm I'll have to think about that list..
Done the bungee jumping already. Twice (off a crane in France)
I'd recommend the Bridge Climb on the Akl Harbour Bridge that was way cool.

Yay, I have a friend who can juggle 6 things but she has no idea how to teach me, she has known how to do it since she was little. I think it cause I have tried and not been able to that I am so determined to learn

Oh man, I wanna watch you jump off the bridge, I wonder if I could swing it? I don't think so L is usually konked out after creche.

Oh oh Lisa, i can juggle too, sort of, I can juggle 3 things like Lauriel, or 2 in one hand.

sniff sniff sniff, oh crap, i think theres a nappy that needs changing ........

I can't believe I didn't put this one:

* Go to the observatory and find Trinitys star (or be shown where it is by someone in the know).

oh honey I did not know you have not seen it, I thought when you got it it came with a pass to be shown where it was.
What a beautiful thing to do.
I want to buy my girls one for their 5th birthdays.

Can I join in too??

I want to take my boys to where their granddad was born (Manchester, England).
Learn to back a trailer into a driveway (silly think I know but I want to do it).
Get a tattoo of footprints on me.
Go on a cruise
Visit my uncles gravesite - I have no idea where in Sydney it is but i am determined to find it.

We did get passes but I don't know what happened to them, and I don't know why we didn't go before I lost them, definatly something I want to do. I've never even been to the observatory.
Oh S-G you reminded me, I better add:

*Get a tattoo for Trinity, either a Trinity knot to cover the botch tat on my chest, or have her name put on the flower chain/butterfly I have on my ankle, or I really love the idea of gettting a footprint or handprint, can't decide, votes? Hmm, I just had a thought of getting a print on my belly in the spot I used to feel her kick, too much?

Yes I am thinking of getting a Tattoo too, lol was thinking of stealing the rememberance ribbon with the footprint from the Tshirt design, and have 7 stars in a semi circle above it with William written in them. and his birth date written underneath.

There are probably alot of things that would have gone on my bucket list, but right now, having a baby- a healthy baby would be the only thing I feel I need to accomplish

Sorry guys, CD1 blues, another month bites the dust

Awww Yvonne, total bummer, sending you major ovulation vibes.........Gee our cycles are almost in sync, I'm Cd3 (not that I'm trying, noooo way, I'm happy to wait a few more years.

Thanks Manda, and thanks for the vibes( btw have any of you watched The Castle )Hopefully we're not in sync for too much longer - bring on the claxene!!!

I have foot prints, then are the bestest ever! But Manda I still say got the Trinity knot!

hmm this is something i have been thinking about lots lately

My bucket list:

Get a tattoo of Thomas's footprint (I have wanted to do this for a long time)
Get a tattoo of a butterfly for my other angels
Lose weight
Travel to Australia
Take the kids on a campervan holiday around the south island

I am sure there are more but thats it for now

I like the foot print idea, I want to get GG's hand and foot prints on my stomach later on. In the meantime I am going to get a butterfly on my wrist.

My Bucket List:

To be a great mum
To get Married
Travel around NZ in a bus
Go to Egypt

The Trinity knot on your tummy where she would kick would be very special.

I want to add, climb to the top (or the safe zone) on Ruapehu, I look out my window every morning to see it so I think that would be a good thing to do. I have climbed to the top of Tongariro so go 2 better and Ruapehu. And it the summer time too, too much snow up there at the moment.
