The season's thoughts turn to summer. The sun gets hotter and clouds of mosquitoes appear. The nice spring flowers shrivel up and die, followed by delicious vegetables. School books are closed for months. Lemonade, ice cream, and popsicles can be found in the fridge, and t-shirts and shorts in the closet. Swim suits come out for an outing in the pool.
{I love the summer season.}
Even though it gets hot and sunny, and my face gets pink with sunburn, my legs covered with itchy bites, I love everything that spells summer. Catching lightning bugs and eating out on the porch, having water balloon fights and spraying each other with the hose, sweet and fruity treats like popsicles or smoothies, smearing on bug repellent and sunscreen, going to the park and the pool, it's all been a part of summer in Georgia. It's practically the biggest part of the year here. Summer is getting hot and cooling off. Summer is eating watermelon. Summer is a million different things. What is summer to you?

Awesome post Abby! My summer is going to the beach, VBS, time for reading, relaxation, sunshine and friends and family! :)
Hi Abby! I loved your interview at TD's place, and I'm rapidly become a huge fan of your blog (wonderfulness!).
Summer is a torturous thing for some people, here in Arizona, but tolerable with the AC.
=D
Can't wait for the watermelon...
