Last night I read Christi’s blog where she posted 12 things she liked about summer. Then she asked, “what do you like?”
Oh Man!!! What’s not to like??? I LOVE summertime! I always have. I love it hot, hot, HOT! Bring it on Hot-lanta! 93 degrees today? Is that all you’ve got? C’mon…
Okay, so here is my list of 12 favorites, and trust me, to get 12 you’ll notice I combined some and had to scratch some off my original list. There was just too much to mention!
In no particular order:
~Flip flops and sundresses
~Tan lines and bleachy highlights
~Driving on warm nights with the moon roof open (makes me miss my days with the top down on my Jeep)
~Catching lightning bugs
~Baseball games
~Getting sticky with watermelon and popsicles, then hosing off
~No school
~Early sunrises
~Grilling out
~Running under the sprinklers
~Exhausted kids sleep better
~IT’S NOT COLD!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else wanna give their top 12?

Great list. It coulda been mine–except for the getting sticky part!
I love you, but you are CRAZY!!! I’m Ok with everything but the HEAT!!!
If we could do all these things in say 70 or 75 degree weather (with the same effect), that would ROCK!
I so have to agree with Michelle. I LOVE the things I listed, but the heat can GO!
You really should move to Arizona….then you’ll be begging for cooler weather. 120+ is very, very unpleasant. Heck, anything over 110 gets tough to deal with, esp. with the new baby!
Great list! I’d add sitting on the front porch listening to the tree frogs!!!
I want to know when you get to drive at night with the moon roof open-Ha.
I agree with those, well most of them. Especially exhausted kids sleep better!
Yeah, I got your Top 12 right here, sista.
You can HAVE IT!!!!!!!!! I’m dyin’ here!
Well – it’s not summer here yet.. the children are still in school for 2 or 3 more weeks (depending on public or private) and it’s still in the high 60’s although it will warm up further in July.
My favourite thing about summer? Not having to wear socks on the weekends .. running around in the back garden looking for snails .. going to play in the fountains at Thames Barrier Park and having an iced coffee in the cafe after .. walking through the Greenwich foot tunnel on a really hot day because it’s always so cold under the river that you can see your breath ..
things I hate about summer.. No air conditioning in anyone’s house .. no ice cubes in drinks .. the 100+ degree temps on the Tube ..
