    I love having the kids home and really being able to just hang out together and not have to run off to get someone to an activity.
    Staying up late with the family. We regularly are up together well past 11pm (except the baby of course, dd4 can stay up that late if she's napped with no problem)
    Fireflies! This is new to us but we love to watch and catch them. Our front yard is full of them.

      Grilling
      Baseball
      Camping/Hiking
      The smell of whatever flowers are in season - lilac, honeysuckle
      Open windows
      Everything being green

      As a kid the best parts of summer were camp, popsicles, and lightening bugs.

                Being tan!

                  Haha, here things for in the summer... At least when there are water restrictions.

                  Not a summer person either, but the heat gives me an excuse to stay inside. Does that count?
