Seventy- Seventy Five

70. Make a Fort
This photo is from inside of the fort. :) Mackenzie & Ozzie came in and participated in the fort making!

71. Dollar Movie
I took a picture of this, but I guess I lost it? Can't find it anywhere. Stephanie & I went to the dollar kid movie at Arbor Place and we saw 'Hoodwinked 2". It was adorable! & we were not the oldest people there without an adult either!

72. Little Five Points
After the movie, Stephanie & I ventured to Little 5 in Atlanta. That may be my last trip there... I was afraid. In the middle of the day. We stuck out like sore thumbs, and we knew it! Haha.

73. Farmer's Market
Downtown, they have a farmer's market on Thursday afternoons. People come and set up fruits, veggies & homemade items to sell. I talked to one of the vendors, and he said that the market has started small, but it is growing weekly. & that makes me happy!

74. Breakfast for Dinner
I guilted some friends into going with me to ihop to get red velvet pancakes. I have heard about them, and I decided that I wanted them to be the breakfast item that checked this off of my list. Oh my heavens... They were so delicious. Drop whatever you're doing, and go get them. Now!

75. Town Center
Town Center is probably my favorite mall. You just can't go wrong! && they have a Haagen Dazs!! Perfect!!

Sixty Four- Sixty Nine

64. Hopscotch

Me, Mackenzie & Ozzie did some hopscotch on the driveway. :)
The cutest part was that Ozzie sat there so long that his fur had rainbow chalk on it... Love!

65. Handprint Art
Because we already had the chalk out, we did some handprint art at the same time! :)

66. Beach Pictures
After getting ready one night, we made Dad go out on the beach with us & take our picture in our pretty maxi dresses! It's harder than I expected. Dodging the beach walkers... & keeping my eyes open. Phew.

67. Ride Bike
I rode out to the lake with Sabrina to spend the day with Jena, her boyfriend, Chris & his family.
I took the opportunity to hop on a bike... It's hard. I should have learned before now. But I guess I am just not meant to be a biker... Thanks, Chris for trying!

68. Tent
Jena & Chris also let me borrow their tent! Thanks, guys!

69. Go Tubing
I was too scared to take my phone or camera on the boat. But we did some tubing. & I even have a sore back to prove it!

Sixty to Sixty Three

60. Make Cupcakes
Mackenzie & I truly made the best cupcakes EVER! Absolutely delish. :) Of course, they don't exactly fit in with my diet... but hey, it was on the list!

61. Karaoke
I took the girls out for a single lady date night to karaoke. Our non-single friends, Jade & Jena, came too though! It's always fun to do things with the people that I love most! & especially to go out to celebrate our awesomeness!

62. Zoo

Stephanie & I went to the zoo this weekend. It's funny. I always tell myself that the zoo is one of those places that you can go to every maybe 5 years... I end up going every single year! Mmm. It is so hot outside! Just wait until fall to go see the animals!!

63. Origami
I struggled. A lot. I am just not good with crafty things... Haha.

Fifty- Fifty Nine

50. Facials

We were cleaning up our faces! :)

51. Face Fear of Birds 52. Feed Ducks
I put the two together! I truly am petrified of birds... but my good friend, Jade, fed the ducks with me!

53. Fireworks
54. Parade
55. Competition
I sang at the Douglasville Idol competition on the 4th! & my beautiful friends were there for me, like always!

56. Massages
Jade & I got massages at the Greentree last week. It was her first one, and I know she fell in love!

57. Roadtrip to Somewhere New 58. Visit a National Forest
We drove down to Memphis, and on the way, we drove through Talladega National Forest. & This picture is from when we stopped at the Mississippi rest stop. :)

59. Audition for Something
I auditioned for NBC's The Voice. & I made it through. :) It was such a great experience! I am glad I finally went through with it! Haha.

So. This list is my game. I create the rules. So I give myself 19 more days extra to complete all the tasks! So I have until school starts. August 19th. :) Only 41 more things!

Forty Two- Forty Nine

42. Cookies

We made snicker doodles! I have never made a snicker doodle before... and they were absolutely delicious. It was extra special because I made them at Moni's house with Moni & Addy! :) I did burn myself though. :( All healed now.

43. Bowling & 44. Laser Tag

Mom got a Groupon to Stars & Strikes. So the whole family went, and bowled and laser tagged and played games. Mom won bowling... Which surprised us all! Hahah. Just kidding, Mom. :)

45. Outdoor Movie & 46. Atlantic Station
Thursday evening, Stephanie and I went to Atlantic Station to see the outdoor movie in Central Park. It was Spiderman. It was a very cool setup, and I think I would probably go again... but it was SO hot. I do recommend going, but check the weather. If it's 100 degrees, maybe wait for the next week.

47. Write a Story
I couldn't get a good photo of this one. But writing stories reminds me of being little. I used to write stories all the time! It's neat to revisit my childhood in many of these activities!!

48. Make Cards
I made some thank you cards for my three closest friends that they don't even know about yet! I think handwritten notes are awesome, and I think that they really help to indicate the importance of the information in them! I love to get handwritten cards, so I can only assume that other people do, too! Haha.

49. Rice Krispies
It makes me so sad that this picture is blurry. :( Those are, indeed, krispies! Mmmm. They were so good! & we ate them all. Directly out of the pan. No shame.

My goal was to have 50 things done by July 1st. I have 49... But that's ok. I am having the time of my life, man! It's funny how these little things can really impact the entire summer!
