I can't resist asking...what is an "Arnold Palmer"? I love your list. Mine is similar except I live in FL so it's flip-flops year round. I grew up in MI though so I totally relate:-)

ReplyDeleteOh summer time is soooo great for me!!! I too hate the long winters, and I love allof your summer favorites!! I think my favorite thingabout summer would be spending time with my kiddos, and rodeo's!!!
ReplyDeleteYour list is absolutely perfection... Flip flops every day is definitely one of the highlights of summer for me - I can't stand wearing shoes and apparently Princess Nagger is getting that from me - she always says she likes to 'air out her toes'... :)
