Diving into summer…

We don’t know about you, but we LOVE summer!

There is so much to look forward to that it’s hard to narrow down our favorites. But, if we had to choose, here are a couple of things that are on the top of our list.

Barbecuing. Need we say more? A majority of our childhood memories center around backyard patios. We remember our dad grilling burgers on a charcoal grill. Our mom whipping up green pistachio pudding while our brothers and we played in a giant sandbox waiting to devour dinner. For us, summer screams backyard barbecues.

Cocktails. Summer would not be complete without a refreshing drink in our hand. Our favorite summer drink is probably a Gin and Tonic. Although, a Pacifico with a juicy lime makes us equally as happy.

Table Rock. We look forward to visiting the lake every summer. Our family has been going to Table Rock Lake for vacation since we were a little girl. We remember sleeping in our yellow swimsuit the night before we left because we were so flipping excited.

Kickball. The Stud Muffins return next week for another EPIC season. We are hoping we have another dominate season but more important, we hope this guy returns because blogging about him is too fun.

Hiking. We love to hike. We are fortunate to live in a place that has a zillion trails that are absolutely breathtaking. One of our favorite hikes to date has to be to Silver Lake. When we were in Telluride last year a group of us hiked this trail. The views were magnificent. Yeah, definitely need to go back.

We seriously could go on forever. Between camping, trail running, four-wheeling, fly fishing, happy hour on roof tops the list would never end, and that’s why we love summer.
