55 Simple Ways to Enjoy Summer!

Tell the world what you have found here!

Summer is my favorite season!

I love the blue skies, oceans waves, sailboats, and picnics outside.

It’s fun to swim in pools, fall asleep reading a good book in the sunshine, and catching fireflies after dinner.

One thing I enjoy about living in Florida is that we enjoy summer nine months a year. 

For those of you in other places where you are blessed to enjoy all four seasons, you are probably excited to pull out the swimsuits and plan outings to the lake, community pool, or beach. 

I love summer!

Summer is a season for all of us to stop and enjoy one another and make memories. What adventures and amusements of summer captivate your family’s heart?

What things do you really want to do this summer?
