It's 40 degrees outside

I'm freezing. May really shouldn't be so darn cold. I'm wearing a heavy sweatshirt, yoga pants and a blanket, when I should be wearing a tank and some cute shorts. I mean really, Mother Nature. Winter has been long enough.

I am dreaming of summer.

There are so many things that I think everyone should try and do in the summertime. Not crazy things. Simple, fun, oldfashioned things. I love the word oldfashioned, don't you? Makes me think of simpler times, of girls in puffy sleeved dresses, drinking lemonade out of a mason jar. Which you should totally try, by the way.

That gives me an idea:

30 Things I Think Everyone Should Do
in the Summertime

Drink homemade Lemonade out of a mason jar. Write a letter to a friend. Go to a 4th of July Parade. Blow Bubbles with the neighbor kids. Ride a bike. Have a picnic. Turn your face up to the sun and take a deep breath, exhale, repeat. Eat cotton candy. Go to a local Fair. Run through a sprinkler. Plan a day at the beach. Go hiking. Visit your local Farmers Market. Paint your toenails(girls). Find a swimsuit you love, and WEAR IT.  Eat a Watermelon. Go see some Fireworks. Oooo and Ahhh at something. Play Marco Polo. Plant some flowers. Visit your Grandma. Eat a Funnel Cake. Catch Fireflies(then let them go). Get up early to see a sunrise. Watch a sunset. Wear sunscreen. Take some kids to the park. Take a nap outside. Dance in the rain. Remember that Summer never lasts long enough, and make the most of it.

Only 28 Days till June!
