Do you ever wake up and know that you’re going to have a great day? Although I try and remain positive, not all days are sunshine and rainbows however, the other morning I got out of bed and was like: “This is it! today is my day!”. It was super refreshing as this year has been filled with a lot of ups and downs which is just the way life goes sometimes. BUT my happy day lead to me feeling super grateful about life and more specifically- SUMMER! It got me thinking of all the simple things in life during the summer season that bring a smile to my face and I thought I would share some of them with you…
- Mid day naps in the sun on the patio
- Restaurants start serving lobster rolls! Yaaaas!
- No pants! It’s so liberating to wake up and throw on a pair of shorts or a dress. Lately I’ve been living in skater style dresses, like this one from Le Château!
- The simple joy of turning the thermostat down to the lowest point possible (if you live in a cold weather climate you know what I’m talking about)
- Enjoying and ice cream in your shorts and a tank top instead of a beanie and sweater
- Driving with the windows down and the music up
- Being able to go for a walk at 8pm and it’s still light out!
- Eating every meal outside
- It’s finally time for Real Housewives of New York City
- Sleeping with the windows open and enjoying the summer breeze and night and waking up to the birds chirping in the morning
- Peaches and cherries!
- Seeing the neighbours side walk chalk
- Straw bag and hats (I stand by the fact that you can never have too many!)
- Corn on the cob
- Buying my foundation in a darker shade- hello sun kissed skin!
- Road trips!
- Summer salads- I just had the new citrus avocado salad from Famoso and it was heavenly
- When you’re running late and can quickly throw on a pair of flip flops instead of winter boots!
- Waking up with the sunrise (I get up at 6am now, which is all thanks to Mr. Sun!)
- Spending a full day in your bathing suit
