Crossing Things Off His Bucket List!

 Do you have a personal bucket list?  A list of things you want to accomplish before you leave this great place we call earth?  Well my husband does and he actively tries to cross things off while still adding new things.  

A few years back when our first niece turned twenty one, he (Uncle Bill and my husband)  planned a special event with her and only her.  He did his homework and got the ball rolling.  On her birthday he gave her a card announcing the special day they would both enjoy.  He took her hot air balloon riding. I being his wife, was very excited that he did this and to my surprise was not the least bit nervous about it.  The two of them made life long memories together and enjoyed a  day neither one of them would ever forget.  

Several years later, another neice turned twenty one and again Uncle Bill did his homework and planned that special day the two of them would share.  He took her swimming with the sharks.  This event had me slightly more nervous but I knew that the sharks were well fed before hand and the chance of them wanting to "eat" him was slim to none. All turned out well and a lasting memories were made between them. 

Well now just one short week ago, our last neice turned twenty one.  Following in the tradition, Uncle Bill planned an event that the two of them would share, make memories, and never forget.  Can you guess what he did with that niece?  Well in case you can't he took her skydiving!  Now this event had me nervous for days prior to them going.  I didn't sleep well and made frequent trips to the bathroom if you can guess why.  Well both of them did their jumps and made it down safely and once again memories were made.

I am so happy that Bill got to do these things with our nieces and in the mean time crossed things off his bucket list.

What is on your bucket list and are you taking the time to cross them off............life is short, live it to the fullest!

Dyan, don't be scared, just go and do it, you will be sooooo glad you did.  It was such a rush and no feeling of falling at all.  ~Bill

Sounds like someone is managing to live life to the fullest.

A great lesson for the rest of us.

Now, would you jump out of a plane ?

This is excellent! I'm almost 24 and I haven't made a bucket list yet - I better start now if I'm going to catch up with those girls in my lifetime! Ha!
