Can I Help You With Your Christmas Bucket List?

Can I Help You With Your Christmas Bucket List?

If you're anything like me, you want to make the most of the season…
But the to-do list is long.


The calendar is full.


And sometimes, the magic starts to feel more like a chore than a joy.

That’s why I created a simple, family-friendly Christmas Bucket List—to help busy Idaho moms like you focus on what really matters:


Joy. Connection. And childhood memories that stick.

Why a Christmas Bucket List?

Let’s be honest—Christmas only comes once a year.
And while we can't (and shouldn’t!) do it all, we can be intentional.

A good bucket list helps you:

  • Prioritize the moments that matter most

  • Say “no” to the things that don’t align with your season

  • Focus on presence over perfection

  • Include your kids in the joy of planning and checking things off

No guilt. No pressure. Just memory-making made simple.

Keywords woven: Family traditions, Christmas memories, childhood experiences

What’s Inside the Bucket List

This isn’t your average checklist.
It’s Idaho-inspired, mom-approved, and kid-friendly—especially for little ones between 2–11.

Here are just a few of the things on the list:

  • Visit Santa (skip the mall and find a cozy local session!)

  • Make Christmas cookies from scratch

  • Pick out a new ornament together

  • Drive through the neighborhood to see lights

  • Mail a letter to Santa

  • Read one Christmas book by the tree each night

  • Bundle up and play in the first snow

  • Start a new tradition just for your family

You don’t have to do them all.
Just pick the ones that feel right for you this year.

Final Thoughts: Let’s Make Christmas Magical Again.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or unsure of where to begin—this is your gentle invitation to pause, breathe, and begin simply.

Let’s take the pressure off and put the joy back in.

From one Idaho mama to another—you’ve got this. And I’ve got your list.
