I am officially a baked potato, and this heat still got two months to go. 0_0 Hello, summer!
Okay but as much as I loathe the outdoors during 118° sizzling days, I really am enjoying some things about summer.
That’s at least one thing I’ve learned in life… Making the most of what we have. At least, I hope I’ve learned it. 😉 I love something about every season God has made, and, though summer definitely isn’t my favorite, I have found some things to love about this time of year too.
The smell of freshly cut grass
Stiff clothes off the clothesline
Cold drinks w/ super company

The purring sound of AC
Thunderstorms
Summer-break hangouts




Popsicles
Baseball caps and ponytails
Reading on the floor in front of a box fan

Windows down, music up, hair crazy– on the freeway!!
Catching the ice cream truck
4th of July



Playing in our pool for hours
Fireworks
Sunburns that decide to tan


Still to come are the AFHE convention later this month and birthdays in August!
(update: the convention is past now and it was great! Post to come. ;P)

I think usually carton, but a cone is fun when it’s like for the experience with friends or whatever like hanging around at a county fair or something. Idk if that makes sense XD

Anna Summer is my least favorite season. I can’t stay in the sun at all. The things I like about Summer is AIR CONDITION and the fresh variety of fruit. enjoy the rest of Summer and try to stay cool.

SUNBURNS
I never realized how nostalgic they are for me until two weeks ago when I went swimming for the first time in forever. xD
It finally feels like summer now…
So I guess that’s to say my favorite part of summer is going swimming. (:

Love it!! I’d never gone swimming until this summer (hard to believe, right 😁) and it’s so fun! Do you tan or just burn?

I tanned and burned but after a couple days whatever had burned turned into a tan too. I’m told that I am blessed. 😜

118 . . . WOW! I thought 105 was hot here in Dixie!!! And crisp clothes off the line are the best! Personally, I love the smell of line dried bed sheets. They just smell better than machine dried 😀
