The Love of Summertime.


Summer is Here! I love the summer months. {I was inspired by Kelli over at Out My Kitchen Window to make my list of summer loves....}. I don't have school age kids~But, yesterday was the last day of school--here in our district AND I was so excited. Is that totally silly?!


  • I love a suntan and the smell of suntan lotion.

  • I love sun...yes, I do. {I know....many of you are gasping at the thought of the danger.}

  • I love flip-flops. Especially, Yellow Box Flip-flops.

  • I love fresh summer fruit. {Love Watermelon}

  • I love the smell of fresh cut grass.

  • I love cooking out on the grill and sharing it with friends and family.

  • I love pool parties.

  • I love summer vacation trips. {especially to the beach}

  • I love being outdoors in the late evening and visiting with neighbors. (I love that dark doesn't come until 9pm)

What do you love about Summer?

That watermelon looks absolutely wonderful!!!! Thanks for participating. I love the smell of suntan lotion as well...it's the smell of summer. Enjoy your time!

Mmmmm...that watermelon looks yummy! Great list! I love being outside in the evening too...but it doesn't get dark until almost
10pm! That makes it hard for the kiddos to get to bed! And...{gasp}...I love the sun too! ;)

Love your list! Mine is very similar! I love the fact that at 8:30 it is still light out in June, I love flip flops (yellow box too but I am recently getting into Chaco), I love the pool and the beach, I love the flowers out everywhere and I love fireflies!

I love trips to the seaside too...and long days, outdoor grilling, growing veggies, warm evenings, no homework and camping!

I love your list - I love summer for the smells and the tastes (fresh cut grass, food grilling and strawberries and watermelon).
