Jul 1

Happy July! 'Tis the season for bonfires, trips to the beach, and backyard BBQs. July is a sun-soaked month here in Michigan, so in order to take full advantage it I made she sure back this July bucket list with plenty of summer necessities.

1. Did you know July is National Ice Cream month? Start the month off right with a trip to your favorite local ice cream shop.

2. Give yourself a fresh pedicure so you're extra confident stepping out in flip flops or barefoot this month. If heading to a salon for a pedicure isn't your thing give yourself one at home. I am currently loving Zoya Pink Palette Summer 2022 and Zoya Hello Summer.

3. Adventure to a local state park or metro park. I love packing a picnic lunch, and going for a hike. If hiking isn't your thing look for one that has water where you can hang out by the beach, go kayaking, paddling board or rent a pedal boat. You could even read a book while you listen to the water touch the shoreline. State parks and metro parks offer plenty of options no matter what type of adventure you're looking for.

4 Happy Fourth of July! Pack a cooler and head to the beach. Have a backyard cookout or enjoy a picnic in the park. Whatever you decide to do I hope it's the best day ever.

5 Happy Graham Cracker Day! Today's the perfect day to grab a box of graham crackers, your favorite chocolate, a bag of marshmallows and enjoy an evening by a bonfire eating s'mores.

6. Plan a trip to a water park or splash pad.

7. Happy Chocolate Day! Make some brownies or chocolate chip cookies today.

8. Book a camping trip. There's just something

9. Spend a couple waters on the water on a pedal boat. My local metro park has pedal boat swans, dragons and ducks for rent!

10. One of my favorite things to do in the summer is enjoy time around a bonfire, especially when it involves Hobo Pies.

11. Take me out to the ballpark. Baseball season is in full swing, head to the ballpark and catch a game, and maybe a ball too.

12. Go for a hike. There's just something zen about venturing around the woods and enjoy time in nature. Be sure to spray yourself with tick spray before going!
