BBL 2014-2014 | Picnic, Farmers Market, and Payson


#7 GO ON A PICNIC
#25 VISIT A FARMERS MARKET
#27 VISIT PAYSON, ARIZONA


Why did I include this on my Bucket List?

Normally I wouldn't group these three times together, since they aren't necessarily related; however, my awesome hubby knew that I was struggling to complete my BBL items this year so he planned a birthday get away trip that included these things. So, I thought it would be fitting to combine them into a single post.

I added going on a picnic to my list simply because I can't remember ever going on a picnic as an adult and I really think it is something everyone should do at least once.

I added visiting a farmers market to my list because I've never been to one, and I wanted to check one out and see what all the hype is about.

I added visiting Payson to my list because I have a friend who grew up there and she has been telling me that I needed to check it out.

Was the experience what I had hoped it would be?

Yes, yes, and yes.  I really had an amazing time doing all of these things and I can't thank Kevin enough for making them happen.

The details...

Kevin and I rented a cabin in Payson, Arizona to celebrate my birthday.  While we were there he took me to a farmers market, where we purchased a few items and I tried my first tamale ever.  Then later in the afternoon we packed a picnic and headed off to enjoy it at a nearby park.  I've already blogged about it in a special Snippets + Snapshots addition here, so head on over to that post if you want to read more about it and see some photos from our trip.  But since I'm a bit OCD, I really needed to add this post to my Birthday Bucket List accomplishments for the year.
