With Memorial Day weekend being the unofficial kick off of summer, I thought I'd highlight 5 things I love and I'm looking forward to this season.

{Pool Time} As I mentioned yesterday, we love having our pool right outside our back door. As this week has already indicated, we'll be spending every day we can splashing and playing in the pool!

{Tan Lines} Going along with pool time, I'm looking forward to tan lines. The kiddos are already getting brown and it's only been a week! I know this is silly, but my favorite tan line is my wedding ring tan line. :) #nerdalert

{Late Nights} I love how laid back summer is....you spend all day playing outside in the pool {or ocean, if you're super lucky}, come in for an easy dinner {like BLTs and corn on the cob}, go back out for more play time and, eventually, crash hard in bed, much later than normal, from a fun day outside. Ah, bliss!

{Ice Cream} Honestly, need I say more?! Ok, I will. I feel that, especially in the summer time, ice cream is necessary every.single.day. Just my opinion. :)

{Beach Time} We may live land locked in Oklahoma, but we always get to look forward to a week at the beach in Gulf Shores, Alabama. It's become our home away from home and I love it!
