Summer Memories

Early May- could there be a more perfect season? Peonies are budding up, the weather's getting warmer, and best of all college is out for the summer. I've started making my summer wish list on Pinterest already- it's gonna be a lot of fun. I love making plans early so that I don't waste any of the precious summer time. Me and my boyfriend Alex kicked off the summer and the end of our college careers with a bonfire last night (old notes, tests, and papers provided the fuel, haha!)

This summer will be a strange one. I'll be trying to find a job and working and figuring out where my life is headed. In some ways I just want  to celebrate and enjoy myself, but on the other hand, I really want to start  building my career and being independent. What happened to the carefree summers of yesteryear with their golden halos of sunshine? I often think about those warm memories throughout the winter- truly, summer is the best time of year. I really look forward to the things we do every year like cooking crabs, fishing, going to the beach, and camping. Summer just wouldn't be the same without them.
Here are some of my best summer memories and essential summertime ingredients.
