My favorite time of year...

Summer is just around the corner and I couldn't be more excited. I love this time of year...

My favorite things about spring/summer:

- birds chirping in the morning
- sunshine
- eating dinner on the deck
- grilling almost every night
- sitting on the deck for hours chatting with my hubby
- seeing flowers grow and everything turn green and beautiful
- vacation to the Outer Banks, NC (two times this year)
- my wardrobe - I always like my summer clothes better than my winter ones!
- daylight lasting until 9:00pm
- picking veggies out of the garden and eating them for dinner
- taking my precious dog for walks

What are some of your spring/summer favorites?

15 Thoughts:

Spring and summer are probably the best seasons ever. I think what I like is walking outside to warm mornings, soft grass on barefeet, grilling with my friends almost every weekend, sitting with the front door open all day, new flowers blooming, taking walks with my dog and husband at the park, and just that fresh smell. What a happy time of year!

I agree with you on so many of these. I love to see birds at my feeder, and new baby robins learning how to fly!! Oh how I love spring/summer!!

I love the warm weather season, especially outdoor concerts, bonfires, fresh summery food- including grilled yummies, driving with my windows down in the car and the music blasting, and so much more. The only problem is that spring into summer makes me miss where I come from so much more than the rest of the year- incredible nostalgia overloads!

I love everything about the warmer weather, except the sweating. ;)

Love being in the pool, being outside, all of the flowers growing... the winter depresses me.

I couldn't agree with you more...summer is by far the best time of the year...you captured most of my favorites also, but my absolute favorite thing about summer is my vacation to Florida (every summer) to vacation with my sister in law ... we have such an awesome "girl vacation"...

We don't see much of you anymore :(

I love that I don't have to wear my ugly winter coat anymore! Or...that I don't have to take for ever getting the kids packed up in theirs!

I love being barefoot and walking on the grass, having the evenings seem so much longer because the sun is still out, sipping a cold glass of wine and cracking open a new book on my porch, taking my dog for long walks and watching her romp in the stream... I could go on and on!
