{The prettiest beach + waterfall in the world.}
Since today is the first official day of summer {at 7:58 am PST, to be exact}, I figured I’d share my list of things I’d like to accomplish before the leaves begin to change colors. This season always makes me nostalgic for my carefree childhood days, when I could spend my days staying cool by running through the sprinklers in our front yard {I was super cool, obviously}, eating ice cream from chocolate covered waffle cones, spend as much time as possible at the beach building sandcastles and collecting seashells, and of course taking naps in the afternoon. While summer is not quite the same anymore {even with summers off from work}, I love that I can now appreciate it at a whole new {and very different} way. Cheers to a season filled with bright nail polish, backyard barbecues, alfresco dining, fresh berries, and weekend beach trips. I’d love to know, what’s on your list?
And here are links to my past seasonal to-do lists: Fall 2022, Winter 2022, & Spring 2023.
