I heard a song on the radio yesterday that was meant to lift everyone’s spirits and get us thinking about summer. And since the ground that had almost shed all of it’s snowy blanket is now covered up again, I thought maybe if I started dreaming about summer, it would come that much faster. I started making a list in my head of all the things that said summer to me. (And here’s the song, in case you were curious.)

When I think of summer, I think of:
- driving with the car windows down
- cruising around or long trips in the car
- baby calves
- green pastures
- the smell of fresh cut hay
- boat rides
- Mayfest
- grilling out
- ice cold beer
- fireworks
- smores
- camping out
- fireflies
- staying out all night
And before I leave you, I wanted to share another song (by a group I love) that gets my summer-dreaming heart thinking we’re that much closer. I think the video’s pretty fun too.
