JennC said...

Earrings and necklaces and birds...Oh My.

The main thing I love about summer is the air conditioning. Nothing fan-stinkin'-tastic like walking in to an AC blasting store from a hot humid sticky sweat inducing outside. Oh and the slushies. Gotta have a banana slushie on one of the mentioned above days. ahhh.

My favorite thing about summer is being with my family at our summer lake house, especially on July 4th, we have a HUGE picnic with tons of people and food and it just brings back so many memories of family who are no longer with us, it's really a special time.

I LOVE long summer days at the beach making sandcastles, jumping in the waves, and chasing seagulls with my family. Nothing beats the beach on a hot summer day!

kismet art said...

Summer...I love leaving the windows open at night so we can feel the breeze and listen to the crickets and the train whistles and the occasional post-4th of July bottle-rocket, I love having ice cream for dinner, not wearing shoes, spray-bottle water battles, no schedules, reading in the back yard, making sun-tea, and remembering how to play with the help of my kids. lovely, lazy summer days bring me joy.

Catherine said...

Oh, they're all so pretty! What I love about summer...lots of excuses to eat ice cream and popsicles.

My favorite thing about summer?? Flip flops. Truth be told, I can wear them all year long & I pretty much do. But it's more justifiable in the summer :D And I am ooohing & ahhhing over the giveaways. I'd love to win any and all of them because I don't own any of those particular pretty things. And I NEED more pretty things. My wrists, neck & head are bare and it's really such a shame I don't have anything pretty. So, Collin, please let me in something pretty.

Brianne said...

Dear Collin,

What a lovely name! Such strength and masculinity is conveyed with such a name! Oh to be graced as winner chosen by one such as yourself *swoon*. Although I'm sure you are as modest as you are endearing and would never fall prey to such lavish compliments. A man among men you are... :)

Unknown said...

So cute!!! pick me! :)

Unknown said...

Thank you so much for the amazing giveaway! (I am CRAZY about those earrings and might have to buy them for my upcoming wedding!)

Summer is pretty much the best, though when I was young and loved making snowmen, snow angels and snow forts I vehemently defended winter as the best season! But now I appreciate lounging on the beach, reading on a blanket in the backyard, road trips with the windows down, wearing flip flops and summer bbqs. Just a few of my favorite summer things :)

Cherie said...

My favorite thing about summer is watermelon :) I could live on it all summer!

Amazing giveaways! What I love most about summer is the night air. When I'm closing up the house for the night and step outside to take the dog out, expecting it to be cool.... and it's still warm. Love that!

Hi! My name is Susan, and I live in Arkansas. Yes...Arkansas. I suppose I should try to say something really witty to catch Collin's attention, as he chooses the winners and all, but I'm at a loss. I'm no match for his sharp wit. However, I can gush about my favorite part of summer. My little doll (two year old daughter) is a water baby. She loves it! The summer is the perfect opportunity to spend lots of time in my brother-in-law's 'cement pond' with my family! Thanks for all the great giveaways!

I love being about to hang by the pool everyday. Being a teacher allows me to chill and just relax...no strings attached!

I love how relaxed summer is. Especially in the mornings. No lunches to make for my kids, and no tight schedules to keep.
Great Giveaways!

I love the ruffled and couture Shey B straps. When I told my husband I wanted one he said, "Make it." I think I will try to win it instead!

Lisa said...

Wow - those are some gorgeous giveaways.
Summer will be great this year as we now have our own gorgeous balcony to sit out and enjoy it on. This is the first "garden" my husband and I have had to enjoy since we met back in 1998 - roll on warm days...

The best thing I love about summer....is not making lunches for the kids...I never thought I would ever be thinking this...but its just a pain in the morning. Ready for summer!!!

Oh my goodness...seriously good giveaways! I love the slow pace of summer and the simplicity of being content just to catch fireflys at night! Nothing better!

Wow--those are awesome giveaways! I love so many things about summer--but I guess my favorite thing would be having my kids all to myself for a bit! No more homework,sports practices, etc... I just love the change of pace!

Mmmmmm...awesome! What a bunch of eye candy! Thanks for the chance!

My favorite part of summer is the inherent laziness -- sure the kids watch a bunch of tv and spend too much wii time, but on the bright side I get tons more craft time!

Unknown said...

wow so many fabulous give aways, i love them all! thank you so much!

Unknown said...

Thanks for the great ideas you have and for these great giveaways, too. The other day, when I was on your blog, my husband glanced up and asked who's blog I was on....he thought he knew your husband. Did he go to Taiwain on his mission? My husband said he is pretty sure they served in the same area. (Justin Holbook, btw.) So maybe that will get me an in with him;) and get me that sweet camera strap I have been coveting for awhile now. But seriously thanks for all the great ideas-I love checking out your blog!!!

My favorite thing about Summer is NOTHING - doing NOTHING, that is. Being lazy and letting each day with my kids unfold.
