Favorite Summer Stuff

My #1

favorite thing about summer is of course the food.

I love the fresh selection of fruits, veggies and meats in the summer! I love finding yummy veggies and fruits at the veggie stand near our home.

I love making fresh salads, veggies and really
like when Gary grills in the backyard.




My #2

favorite thing about summer in playing in the water with the kids!

It doesn't matter if we are at the lake, or on the slip n slide.

We love the water!

And summers here in Texas are so hot...we gotta cool off somehow.

This summer will be so fun since Hayden is WAY more mobile.

I gotta start eating my veggies and protein now just to have the energy to keep up with him.




I am linking to Taylor's blog today!

Go visit her to see other bloggers favorite things =)

Great pictures! We love the water. We will probably be in the pool or the splash pad every day this summer!

I want to come over to your house for dinner. The shrimp pasta...is there a recipe on here for that? I LOVE, LOVE the water and can't wait to take a dip in the pool in Florida. Great pictures.

Those are definitely a couple of my favorite things about summer too!! Especially the grilling out part, because...well...I like food, and Michael does all of the grilling, so I'm free from kitchen duty!!! :)

I'm with you on the fresh fruits/veggies. I have the sweetest watermelon in my refrigerator that I can't seem to get enough of - all thanks to the warmer weather.

My favorites are grilling with friends & sitting on our screened in porch having a glass of wine & enjoying the beautiful weather! My dad's pool is very close to the top though.
