Awesome giveaways! My favorite thing about summer? I'm still a student/about to be a teacher, so I have the summers off and I love having time to run on the trail near my house every morning. It's such a beautiful, relaxing way to start my day! And Colin accepts bribes?? Hmm, well, if I were ever to see someone as gorgeous as Colin running on the trail, I would surely faint from being so flustered : )

Summer is definitely my favorite season!!! Sitting on the deck, playing in the garden, drinking limeade, being a little less overscheduled than usual... so many things to love! I also really, really, really love Lisa Leonard's designs! :)

I live in Alaska right now (military), and summers here are AMAZING! I was so sick of winter, and being pregnant in the winter in Alaska is NO FUN! I am 38 weeks right now, and the sunny weather about 23 hours of the day really helps! This is our last summer here, so we are doing a lot of things outdoors. God has truly made an amazing place for us to enjoy!

alicia king said...

Ruth said...

These are all terribly lovely.

What do I love about Summer? Dresses and being outside.

Heather Leigh said...

There are SO many favorites about summer, it's impossible to pick just one...watching orange sunsets across the lake, the sound of the ice cream truck in the distance and watching my kids jump up and down in delighted anticipation of a frosty treat, the smell of sunscreen and the way it glistens on my kids' tanned little bodies, sand kissed cheeks (including the cheeks on your face), enormously fat bumble bees that become even fatter as they fill themselves with pollen from my black eyed susans and daisies, the ca-caw of the kildeer and the trilling of the robins, watching red-winged blackbirds and blue jays and mourning doves visit my bird feeders, the fresh scent of newly mowed lawns and the humming of mowers on a Saturday morning, the sweet and savory smell from grills barbequeing through out the neighborhood, the extended light of day, homegrown tomatoes and farmers markets, America's favorite past time - Baseball - whether it's watching one of my boys' little league games or listening to the play by play of our beloved Detroit Tigers ...OK, this list is turning into a scrap book page...or maybe even a BOOK!! Thanks for the fun giveaways!

Gingersnaps said...

Oooh summer! I love family gatherings and warm summer sun!

AZAnjanette said...

*gushing* about Lisa Leonard. I love jewelry and would love to have a piece of jewelry with my kids names on it including my little angel baby Rian. He was only on this earth for one day but made a lifetime impression on all of us.

Happy snappy summer from us crazy Canadians up north here in New Brunswick.
You guys seem like you really know how to love life and revel in the moment. That's the biggest impact your blog has on my life and family. A reminder to savor the little things in life and take joy in the everyday.....count your blessings.
And it doesn't hurt that Liz is wickedly creative and Collin- you make me want to bust a gut laughing-- or come through the computer screen and squeeze those sweet cheeks!!
Thanks for inviting us into your lives...it's an awesome journey!,
What we love most about summer is the changing seasons and time spent with family as we mold our busy work schedules around that of a young busy family.

OK...this post had way too much eye candy. So much fun stuff to look at. Your sis-in-law's ear rings are way too cute. The Lisa Leonard necklace is a close second...wouldn't they look cute together. I love summer because there is no school, which means no more 3rd grade homework. Now we get to sleep in, travel to the lake and waterski.

Krista said...

i love that it's warm at the beach!

My favorite thing about summer is bringing my kids to their outdoor summer activites and sitting in the sun watching them learn new activites- you can't do that so much in the MN snow, so summer is special!

Summer is the best. Sweet tea and breezy porches is what it's all about in Texas.

On a sidenote, after two years of serious drooling over the digital SLR's I am now the proud Mama of Cameron the T1i Canon, and I think the one thing he would like most in life, is a super rad camera strap from Miss Shey B. He would look so nice at the beach, don't you think? ;)

P.S. I always love your photos. Thanks for all the inspiration and the awesome giveaways.

Michelle said...

Wow! What wonderful giveaways! Seeing this on your blog really brightened up my day! I am buying a new camera on Saturday, so I would LOVE to win a new camera strap! I can't tell you the last time I bought new scrapbooking stuff, so the "FAB" kit would be awesome too! The colors look like it will get back into scrapbooking again!
