What's on your bucket list? Here is a dream realized!
Menu
We were recently on a family vacation to Huatulco, Mexico. My mom, my dad, my siblings, nieces and nephews, there was 14 of us on the trip – a dream realized for our family. We haven’t traveled like this since 2005 when Jeff and I got married in Costa Rica, and our families have certainly grown since then!
We just finished a very special experience, which I will share with you below!
What's on your bucket list? Here is a dream realized!
My youngest daughter, ever since she was a baby, she’s loved turtles. That’s the stuffed animal she has, she’s got books about turtles, posters about turtles, and we had a very special experience here where we’re on a beach, and we just got to release some baby turtles into the Pacific Ocean. And it was so special, to see that dream realized for her. And it was more special I think than any of us anticipated as well.
It’s fascinating what this group is doing on these beaches every night. They scour the beach for turtles who have laid eggs, and then they move those eggs into a tent, where they protect the eggs. It takes about 45 days for them to hatch, and then they release them into the ocean.
The turtles have gone from near extinction to being repopulated because of programs like this. They said they release about 10,000 baby turtles into the ocean every day, and only a small percent of those will actually survive.

It was very, very special, we all got to release a few different turtles into the ocean and because we got them to the ocean, despite the birds flying around above us waiting for that prey, the story’s not over for them yet! Here they are, they’ve been given another lease on life.
A few dreams realized being on this family vacation, first of all, watching my daughter having this experience, and for us to do this trip as the family, and then to see this project in Mexico successful, as a result of them following their passion!
I wanted to share this special experience with you, and to ask you the question, what’s on your bucket list? What are some of those things that you would love to do? Is it travel, volunteering for an organization, making a difference in the world in some small way, or maybe a great big way? It starts with an idea. It starts with a dream. I hope that you will put some thought into what’s on your bucket list? What kind of experiences and excursions would you like to have? Start by writing them down. And then what’s a baby step you can take in the direction of that?
Here is to you living a life you love,
