A PRIVATE ISLAND TO CELEBRATE THE BIG NEWS!

Check this place out - it's incredible: aerialbvi.com/
This place has been on our bucket list for years now. We've had it on our radar for a while, but wanted to come when something special happened. Well, it did! (More on that in the coming weeks!!!) So we brought our Bucket List Studios team here to celebrate, recharge, collaborate and of course play!
The Aerial BVI is one of the most eco-friendly destinations we've visited. Additionally, we were able to experience Redemption Ranch where all horses and zebras were rescued to undergo their own healing journeys. Many of the animals are now used to heal guests through Equine Therapy. It's incredible. And finally - I have to touch on the food - it was so healthy, fresh and delicious! We truly left feeling fully invigorated.
One highlight of the trip was our team scuba dive! For Christmas last year, Garrett and I gifted our team PADI scuba certification. www.padi.com/courses We were so excited to take 3 of our employees on their first ever scuba dive with Sail Caribbean Divers to do an awesome wreck dive.
Check out my new book with National Geographic called Bucket List Family Travel that finally published last week. You can purchase it anywhere books are sold. thebucketliststudios.com/page...
Until next time, keep exploring and living your own bucket list dreams!
Garrett & Jess!

Y’all are absolutely the best. We just sold almost everything and now living in our 5th wheel. Off to travel the United States and hopefully more around the world. My husband had a heart attack with a quadruple bypass three years ago at the age of 42. Made us realize tomorrow’s never promised. We’ve made our bucket list and off we go.💙

[@lindadriessen9027]

Safe and Joyous Travels 😊

[@daywithdave]

I really must do that when I retire. Sounds so much fun. Have fun and enjoy it

[@Positivedrops]

Love how you said we are not sharing because it is Jessica’s time to shine.

[@nicolek222]

I loved that Haley shaved your head and was probably some of the inspiration behind it. I missed seeing them on this trip. Next time for sure! Can’t wait to hear your big news.

[@robynhigginbotham6468]

Can’t wait!!!! You stinkers, You!!! Love y’all! Love, love, love Jess’ book!❤️❤️❤️

[@elliottschuurman8729]

Even a bad Day turns awesome when the bucket list family uploads a video ❤️❤️💙💙💚💚

[@fluffydog9356]

Love the soul and love that you and your family project out into the world! It makes the world a better and brighter place! Good Luck Jess and safe travels. May God watch over you and protect all while you are away! Can’t wait to hear the big news in March-April. ❤

[@InbredDinnerWolves]

Im so proud of you Jessica....this book is absolutely incredible. I cant put it down. So ive had a hunch since your book was announced that "THE BUCKET LIST STUDIOS" would end up signing with "NAT GEO".....and noticing all the, I would call them hints" in this video......I hope i'm right, and it's the perfect landing spot for such a wonderful dream of yours and Garretts dream to come true in "The bucket list cartoon".....I'm so proud to be an investor, and to be able to be a part of this ride with the most wonderfully deserving, coolest, bravest, cutest, most down to earth family on youtube....much love from California❤💙💚

[@jayleigh_bee]

Congratulations Bucket List family!

[@jayleigh_bee]

I’m excited to read your book, Jessica! I admire you all so, and want to marinate in your wisdom a little more! 🤪🫣😝😀

[@misty9414]

I was so surprised when your hair was cut. Always loved it, miss it a lot. Hopefully you grow it back. But do what you like. Following your family over the last 5 years and enjoy it a lot.

[@brianandheatheroutdoors]

I love the intentional cropping of certain people in the video while shaving your head. ❤

[@ChampMom60]

I can't wait!! I just joined the friends and family group and have been enjoying the videos in there. I want to watch you guys all the time. I am disabled so I can't do any of the things you guys do. It really makes me happy to watch you guys as a family have so much fun together all over the world. You have the BEST three kids EVER!!

[@ThisHomeschoolingAdventure]

[@cynthiabowers2960]

So totally awesome! Hair grows back…but friends are a valued life time! You rocked it!

[@TruckDriver6834]

❤ I saw the thumbnail and knew y'all were at Buck Island in the BVI. I've dreamed of that island for over 10 years, when I saw it was for sale. I showed my wife after I saw it and said if we ever hit a big lottery, I'm buying this island. I'm happy to see someone has done something wonderful with it. ❤

[@nataliamolinaro6613]

Still handsome as ever. You guys are truly truly blessed to be able to experience so many beautiful places. My poor kiddos have never left our state(of Minnesota) Ok I have to add more as a watch. Idk what it is about this video the music, the atmosphere, just all of it. Gave me goosebumps and tears of happiness. Thank you for letting me see the world through your eyes. I know we have this one life to live and I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to experience even a 1/4 of what you guys have done with my children and husband.

I was 45 seconds in to the video and I had to stop and say how talented Dorothy, Manila and Callie are. I have always wanted to be part of your family and go on many adventures and trips. I love the ocean so much and you guys have changed my heart on sharks, I love them now. I love your channel so much and keep posting I love it. Also if you guys ever want to take me on one of your trips I would love to go 😂😂😂😂😂 (sorry if I spelled your names wrong)

[@user-jc5fe9ks3m]

[@lifewithlex9745]

I’ve watched your vlogs and always wondered why you never visited the BVI. Welcome to my home!!! Hope you enjoyed 🇻🇬

[@eloiselamons1454]

[@honeymayrubio4484]

Wow jas wow❤❤

[@annacifelli580]

He looks so good with the hair cut 🙏🏼👍

[@sandramorey2529]

Garrett's new haircut seems to be a trend . Our son in law has had the same haircut for at least a year and he used to have long long hair. He's a climber so I guess he likes the ease of maintenance. Beautiful scuba video. We will never do that for sure. Thanks

[@LAT.MTL.]

Love this channel! Looking forward to more!

[@sydneyo6121]

Ребята, какие вы милые. Стрижка замечательная, головка ровненькая. А если бы вы вместе, вдвоем постриглись?))) Чудесное путешествие! 😊

[@adieliabenson]

I love you guys so much and I love Jess’s new book

[@CaseyWiggin]

I love this video. What fun times

[@allijarman9516]

Did A sailing trip In the BVI's with a Company called Sunsail back in 2022! It was awesome and I wanna go back and do it again with family and friends one day!!

[@slindsey5052]

[@richardmoore3749]

Congrats and great haircut

[@manyalevine1017]

Looks amazing .what a wonderful team and an amazing way to spend together. If u like special diving u should try the diving in Cesaria with things thousands of years old...

[@cristinaancelotti1736]

You certainly are the coolest team in the world. Loved this video, so inspiring that I’m thinking to send it to my boss 😊

[@whereswallyd]

Been a fan of our videos for years, since the beginning. One thing I wish is that for Garrett, who is also part Filipino to show more representation on the channel for people of color. His whole team does not have any POCs and there are so many talented minorities out there. Would love to see more of that.

[@kali4niadazed]

Bucket list family cartoon eh? Love the book Jess 💙Congrats and can't wait for the news I think you gave us a hint.

[@skyeseaborn1170]

Wow! So cool!✨✨✨

[@slindsey5052]

Yes received your book 🤗👍 and sent you an email. Hope you get a chance to read it.🌞

[@cassidyflanagan3592]

I love your adventures they seem so cool I wish I could go on an adventure with you guys and the kids one day

[@jamischrag]

Got my book Jessica!! Love it. I thought if I ordered early it would be personalized to me. I got a sticker with crap writing as a signature. Can't even identify your name. Super, super bummed. First book I've ordered in years. Had to wait months. Completely fine with that. Super bummed you didn't put more of an effort in with the signature. I truly expected better.

[@mariamalec965]

I love how hayley had the honor to shave garretts hair.

[@francarlena8604]

5:53--- love that swing chair 7:20--- love your guys description of working remotely. Prioritizing family and your time but getting work done. 9:40-- that gym is super cool!!! Can't wait for your next big news! In the meantime, my book I ordered, Jessica's National Geographic book, is sitting at home waiting for me... I got notified of its delivery while I was away working remotely. Can't wait to open it and see what awesomeness you've done Jessica!! 🎉 hats off to you mama!

[@matthewdiaz3303]

Are you gonna post about the present that kids got for Christmas. 🎁
