It's the birth of something new! We all can breath a little easier because we think that the summer is a time to slow down and relax a bit. Well, it is! All the anticipation all spring (and even winter) for the summer to come and it is here, today, June 21! So, what is your plan for the next 2 1/2 months? What comes to mind when you think of summer? What is your most favorite part of the summer?
There are many things that I like about summer that naming my favorite is impossible! This is what I love and will appreciate the next couple of months:
- longer days & sunshine
- leaves on the trees
- lighter, easier clothes
- the smell of freshness in the air
- dew on the lawn when the sun just comes up
- being outside
- leaving the windows open at night
- or better yet, opening the windows!
- bare feet
- fresh array of nail polish - sherbet, watermelon, reds, pinks...
- flowers
- bees
- hummingbirds
- outdoor fireplace
- walks after dinner
- sunsets
- rain storms after a long hot day
- the beach (I can't believe this is here and not at the top!)
- sand
- unplanned adventures
- ice cream stops
- Del's
- the smell of fresh cut grass
- rainbows
- vacations
- hiking
- walks
- picnics
- gathering shells, rocks, wood on the beach
- sounds of nature at night
- the owl
- grilled food
- tomato basil salad
- corn on the cob
- mojitos
- flip flops
- NOT the bathingsuit (surprised?)
- shorts
- summer reading
- flower gardens
So, while I reminisce about my summer....stop and take a moment for yourself about your summer!

The beach is most definately my #1! Flip flops and suntans inch in near #1 for me too! Summer is my favorite season! There's so much to enjoy outside! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reminder of all the great things about this time of year!
You are welcome! Funny thing is that where I live it feels like a cold, wet, rainy early spring day!
