Our Summer Bucket List Video + #27 Start a vlog

We made a video expressing the items on our bucket list. We had lots of fun making it and hope that you guys enjoy it.  Once we start, we will be posting vlogs on our youtube along with our blogs for every list item. Therefore, by making this video, we have checked off #27 by starting our own video blog. It’s not the best, but it is our first. We promise our next ones will be so much better!
