This weeks TOP 2 is: Top 2 favorite things about summer!
Forgive me now, but I cannot list only 2 favorite things about summer
so I'm going to list my top 5! Summer is my favorite time of year.
1. Going to the beach
As I've said before, I go to Ocean City at least once every summer. When I'm at the beach, I'm such a happy person. Laying on the beach and hearing the waves crash is so relaxing to me! I could stay there for hours, wearing SPF of course. I enjoy the night life there because they have outside bars/clubs and it's so different then being in a sweaty, loud bar. OC also has an endless amount of putt putt places & not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty good :-)
2. Cookouts

During the summer, I attend many of these. On Sunday's, if its nice, my dad cooks on the grill and invites the family over. I love when we're all together. M & I also cook on the grill during the summer. I just think food tastes so much better when it's cooked that way :-)
3. 4th of July

Since I was a little girl, I have LOVED the 4th of July. My mom & dad always took my brother & I to see fireworks. Sometimes we went with people from the neighborhood too. We would pack snacks and blankets and make a night out of it :-) The first year M & I started dating, we didn't go see fireworks. To say I was sad is an understatement. At the time, I don't think he understood how much I wanted to see them. I may seem "childish" for being upset about it but it's like a tradition to me. Luckily, the fireworks were showing all weekend and he surprised me with a trip to see them :-)
4. Driving with the sunroof open
and great music playing!

When the sun is shining, there is nothing better than taking a drive with no destination (in a clean car of course lol) with the windows down, sunroof open, and good music playing! Sometimes I do this if I need to clear my head.

5. Summer Clothes!
The flip flops, wedges, sun dresses, shorts, tanks, bathing suits!
Gahhh, I love it all! It's so nice not to have to put on layers and layers of clothing just to go outside. I loathe winter! When I can leave the house in a pair of shorts, tank, and flip flops, I'm a happy girl :-)
(that's just a very random collection of clothes I put together lol)

What a great list! Those are some of my favorite things about summer too :)
HELL YES to number 4 & 5 especially..oh and the cookouts!
I love my little sunroof in my Honda Accord. And yes. Car must be CLEAN!! No pollen allowed. :-)
P.S. In your post before this your hair is SUPER cute- curled with it pulled halfway back in the poof look....HOW do you do the poof? I can never get it to look right, and I want to do this look, with my natural curly hair, for my friend's wedding....the half way pulled back poof to go along with it.
:-)
I love all of your picks! I want all of those summer clothes!
You really like bathing suits?! Ha, jk.
Those are the cutest little platforms. I actually just got into putting my sunroof down. It's like I just discovered it or something.
Girl! Why do you think i pay big bucks to live in the climate I do? HAHA! I need all 5 of these things a solid 11 of 12 months of year! ;)
All 5 of these are my favorites too! I even have a summer playlist on my iPod that I literally only play during the summer. One of my favorite things to do is to update it with the newer summer-worthy songs.
I love all your choices! PS I have that swimsuit in your bottom picture of summer clothes!

Hehe it's funny how everyone calls it cook outs.. I just say bbq..
Awesome list!! Love a good BBQ, and the fourth is my favorite holiday, but it may have something to do with my b-day being three days before!!
Great picks! I love driving around with the sunroof open. A sunroof in a car is a MUST HAVE.

All great reasons to love summer! I think that all of the things on your list make me not only think of summer, but 4th of July also. =)
This is such a great list. I love summer because of all this too!
I get to be on the beach next week! AND wear summer clothes. Yay.
(I only really get to do this when i go on holiday because the weather in Glasgow is rarely suitable for summer clothes OR the beach, sadly.)
