50 Reasons to Love Summer

What are the many reasons to love summer? Today I am sharing 50!

Reasons to Love Summer

A few years ago, I wrote a post on why summer is better than winter. Summer is by far my favorite season of the year. While spring brings blooming flowers, it also brings along allergies, lots of them, and leaves me a sneezing, eye-watering mess.

I love the foliage of fall and the cooler weather it brings, and fall comes in a close second, with winter being my least favorite season. There’s not much that we do in the winter, although winter has been a lot milder these past few years. We’ve barely had much snow (which the kids love and I hate to shovel), and I’m not a fan of layering and much prefer dressing as cool as possible.

So what are my reasons for loving summer as much as I do? Here are fifty reasons!
