Although I haven't been able to do this recently, summer for me has meant going to the library, borrowing a bunch of books, and just reading all day. Can't do that as much now that I don't have summer vacation from school. Guess that's part of being an adult (other things make up for it though!)

Since my Dad was the only child in his family to leave Texas, every year we would drive from California to Texas for a few weeks of "Ya'll" immersion and river tubing trips. It was awesome. We've continued this tradition with our kids (on an every-other to every- third year basis). The next generation of second cousins have as much fun as me & my cousins did!

Summer traditions are few and far between back home- but I'll never forget how every summer my family would host a party for friends in the backyard. We'd set up the badminton net and the croquet wickets to play old games that aren't common in country Colorado life. I loved those days and still think of them fondly. I can't wait to have a yard to have such parties of my own.

the river is a favorite tradition for our family - spending a nice Sunday afternoon with your toes in the cool river with some great classic rock music is 100% summer to me!

My favorite summer tradition is Friday Movie Days. Thursday we go to the movie store and it doesn't matter that T wants to see that and C wants to see this...we get both and other movies too and we watch however many we got Friday all day. It's just our day to snuggle up and not worry about anything!

Invariably, summer means baseball tournaments. And it truly is my favorite way to spend the summer. We spend the early part of the season here in the NW FREEZING at baseball games. It is a joy to watch the boys play in the sunshine while we are warm and happy in the stands.

Our favorite (and most frequent) summer traditions are (1) swimming, swimming and more swimming; (2) cooking on the grill; and (4) picnics. A new tradition this year is searching for (and enjoying) veggies from our new (small) garden!
Thanks for the chance at the fabulous giveaways!!
