What can't you wait to do this summer?

Anything new you will be trying cause LO(s) are older?

Favorite summer thing to do?

Favorite summer drink?

secretsout · February 2014

I can't wait to be warm this summer. I am so over the cold and gloomy weather. I also can't wait to go to the beach.

I don't think we will really do anything new this summer, but hopefully he won't be so afraid of the sand and the ocean as he was last summer.

Favorite summer thing to do is go to the beach, and eat crabs with some cold beer.

And I'm going to go with margarita as my favorite summer drink.

EVA116 · February 2014

I am excited to not wear a coat anymore.

Hopefully DS will be walking by summer and I can't wait to see him explore his world outside.

My sister gets married June 14th and DS and DD are in the wedding.

My favorite thing to do is just sit outside while kiddos play.

My favorite summer drink is a Mai Tai.

Karbird5 · February 2014

I'll join you in the dreaming! I can't wait to plant my garden and pick raspberries and peas. Can't wait to have some sort of lime/beer concoction that only tastes good when the temp is above 90. Staying up late with DH around the firepit with a bottle of wine. Hell a sunset after 6:00 would be nice

In about 4 months everyone will be complaining about how hot and uncomfortable they are.

DreadLoc · February 2014

NOT living on campus anymore.

Cookouts in OUR backyard. That we own.

Going to the beach.

DreadLoc · February 2014

favorite summer drink is one that is ice cold and makes me feel fuzzy. and has an umbrella in it.

i need to stock up on mini umbrellas.

EVA116 · February 2014

Oh and I am running my first marathon in July.

wiggyslilsis · February 2014

I love summer!

I want to try on a high waisted bathing suit and see if I like the new trend on me. Since my tummy is destroyed it is either that or a one piece but I find it hard to find one pieces that fit right.

Can't wait to go swimming with DD this summer...she was just starting to like the water when summer ended. Playing in the park. Going on walks.

Uhm I love mojitos and daquiris and pins coladas!

angelashly · February 2014

I can't wait for summer!

Walks around the neighborhood, BBQ food, grilling, hanging out in the yard with my book while she runs, Parks. Most important sun, heat, and being able to drive the speed limit with no black ice/snow worries.

shadypines · February 2014

Not getting dark at 4-5pm. Trying to do some gardening this summer. Hanging out in the backyard. Parks with kids. Flip flops, tank tops..... I'm sure I can think of more.

I like this post! I'm so sick of winter. Another snow storm mid week makes me wanna cry

What can't you wait to do this summer? Watch Sean play at the beach - he was too little last year to enjoy it.

Anything new you will be trying cause LO(s) are older? Nothing new this year!

Favorite summer thing to do? Sit on my ass at the in laws Cape house and watch the kids play. Preferably with a drink in hand

Favorite summer drink? anything! But my fav is prob a nice home made Sangria....mmmmm

Where do you live? GA is expected another snow storm Wed. State of Emgergency already issued..... SICK OF THIS SHIT!!!

MrsT0514 · February 2014

Im also feeling the winter blues here. I cant wait to take DS to the beach this summer and have him really enjoy it (he was still too young last summer). Of course, I guess this will all depend on if we end up moving to OH for DH's job or not...which os a strong possibility at this point.

Besides that, I cant wait to be able to be outside more in general. Walks with DS and the dog, cocktails outside in the evenings, lots of grilling for dinner!

shadypines · February 2014

Clearly winter is not done with us. GL with your meeting later this week. Hopefully the storm will not hinder it.

Swimming with DS. At home, at the lake, everywhere!
Swimming is about the only thing you can do here during the summer. Sofaking hot.
Ginger lemonade with vodka.

I'm excited for swimming this summer! Last summer DS didn't quite get the concept.

missyishere · February 2014

Wearing summer dresses and taking N to the pool.

@shadypines920 - boston - we're supposed to get it early Thursday AM and into the wee hours of Friday morning. I'm so over it. Plus I have a big meeting scheduled for work with a client on Thursday that will probably get cancelled. It was sofaking hard to get her to commit to a meeting time and if I lose this opportunity going to be so pissed.

We are in NJ and suppose to get it Wednesday night into Thursday.

FalconCrest · February 2014

I can't wait to play outside every day, sit out by the fire pit in the evenings with DH and friends, drink mojitos, run around in our bare feet in the backyard for the first time without having to worry about pine cones/pine needles, going to the sprinkler park, morning coffee on the back porch, etc...

I can't flipping wait until summer!!

msdrdg · February 2014

I am so done with loosing my sick/vacation days to snow. Fuck snow!

I can't wait to take DS to the playground and the beach and the splash park. Pretty much anywhere where he can run around, have fun and blow off some energy so he is tired and sleeps at night.

DS will be spending at least a week with my parents, I can't wait for some 24/7 adult time!

I love a good margarita (no salt) or a really good mojito, or just a nice cold gin & tonic.
Can't wait to go to the family house in Maine and just sit on the porch while the kid and the dog run amuck in the neighborhood and sip nice cold gin & tonics all day.

I can't wait for the hot weather! And to be able to go on walks again.
This year I'm gonna try to do the zoo with DS, maybe go with my sister and nieces.
My favorite summer thing is to do any outdoor activity, like bonfires, walks, and festivals.
My drink is Smirnoff Blueberry Lemonade and iced coffee.

Oh favorite summer drink: Margarita, vodka and lemonade or sangria

We are also.getting more snow Saturday

shadypines · February 2014

We had probably less than 2 inches last night S. Jersey. And another 2 hour delay for school. I told my oldest (he was so happy) that he will be in school till August making up days. lolol He did not like that response. SICK OF THIS SHIT!!!

@Starearekid

missyishere · February 2014

My goose loves swimming like whoa. I try to still take her to the gym pool for acclimation, but summer swimming is obviously superior. She's been a water baby from the get go.

missyishere · February 2014

Oh, I thought of something else-- warm weather means DH uses the grill more, which means HE DOES THE COOKING!!!!!!!!!

vandelay · February 2014

I can't wait to eat outside and go for walks after work. We will be signing DD up for swim lessons this summer, and that will either be awesome or miserable.

My favorite summer drink is a mojito, but I don't need for it to be summer to drink one.

myatala · February 2014

I'm looking forward to daylight into the evenings. Favorite ssummertime drink is a tie between lavender lemonade and Juniper Dry Soda.

I wish they had summer camp for 1 year olds.

I'm sending N to Daddy Camp while I go off West this summer. Does that count?

persephonerose · February 2014

Fire flies! Swimming and disc golf.

Drink - Arnold Palmer made with fresh lemonade and raspberry ice tea

lildevil968 · February 2014

I can't wait to hit the slides at Water World!!!

I can't wait to hike in warm weather.

I can't wait to make my trek up the Manitou Incline for the first time this year.

SpaceGirlSpiff · February 2014

Planning to start swim lessons with DS

TTC!

Maybe some beach visits

Other than that, the heat in SoCal in the summer kind of sucks and makes me feel sticky, and we dont have very good AC so... meh.

The worst months ever seem to be Aug and Sept... icky.

Eleventy11 · February 2014

We are spending a week at the beach and I CANNOT wait. I'm hoping DS will be walking, but I doubt it.

Favorite summer drink: Summer Beer - can of pink lemonade, can of vodka, can of water and a beer.

NotSharknado · February 2014

Morning runs with the girl. Swimming! Ice cold beer.

insertclevername · February 2014

I can't wait to go on walks, grill, sit on the deck and sit around the fire pit. Hopefully DS2 is more chill than DS1 was so I can have him hang out in the pack and play while I garden. My favorite summer drink is homemade sangria. I make both white and red.

Can't wait to wear flip flops, plant some flowers, eat dinners out in the backyard.

DD's tubes (ears) are out so I'm hoping she can really swim this summer. She loved being in the water last year but was limited in what she could do.

Favorite summer thing to do...I can't wait for the days to get long enough and warm enough to go outside with DD and the dog and play in the morning.

Favorite summer drink - any Mexican beer with lots of limes.

FrickandFrack · February 2014

I LOVE summer! It's my favorite season because you can play outside every day, go to BBQ's, go to the beach, go to the pool.
