Summer Favorites

I love summer! I have lots of fond memories of summertime growing up. My very favorite part of summer was always my birthday, granted... but I have lots of other favorites too! Dont you just love the things that remind you of a time or place? I sure do! Here are a few of mine!

* The smell of fresh cut grass
* The sound of the bell from the ice cream man (even though he is a bit creepy)
* Watermelons
* Lightning Bugs (as we refer to them in the south)
* Thunderstorms
* Family Vacation
* The lake
* Fourth of July
* The Farmers Market
* Live music on a restaurant patio
* Lemonade
* Kids playing in the sprinklers... better yet SLIP N SLIDES!
* Baseball games
* Sea, Sand, and Shells
* Flip flops
* Lazy days at the pool (back before my big girl days of working full time)
* Though I LOATHED it at the time, summer cheerleading camp brings back great memories
* Crickets Chirping
* Sun Hats
* and of course my birthday!!!!!!!!!!!
