So tough to pick just one! But I think my ultimate would be to be outside, especially during a warm sunset, near water, with a margarita & good friends! Tough to beat!
We live in Boston so our favorite things is to take long walks at night down Newbury St and back–it’s usually overrun with tourists & shopping fanatics during the day but at night it’s perfect!!
Going to the Drive-In movie theatre in my Southern hometown!
My favorite summer activity is going to the shore and getting fudge!

My favorite summer activity is grilling and watching baseball.
bbq & frisbee. as well as sipping on ice cold ice/sweet teas while sitting outside ![]()
We invite a couple people over and have 40’s on the porch. We only do it a couple times during the summer so people get excited and it gets really built up. We all sit out there talking and laughing and telling stories late into the night. It’s nice to have the kind of parties once in awhile where you don’t have to do anything, bring anything, or set up anything.
Down by the river with my dog and some splashing then home for some grilling out and drinks with friends!
enjoying a beer or a glass of wine outside on a sunny afternoon.
My favorite summer activity is shopping in the city and eating gelato!
It was summer Fridays, until I switched jobs (they don’t have it here)!
Favorite summer activity is canoe camping on Battle Island. This is a small island in the river that flows near my home. We take food, drinks, friends and a bunch of dogs. It’s so close to home, we can go every weekend if we want!
my favorite summer activity is eating outside while wearing a skirt and gazing into my fiance’s eyes.
Relaxing at some tropical spot by the water or pool with a good book and cold fruity drink in hand.
In the summer I love going rollerblading downtown and getting ice cream : )
I love picnics, playing with my puppies, going to the lake. My finace and I love WAKEBOARDING!
Eating outside on the patio at my favorite restaurant!
My favorite summer activity would have to be FI’s family tradition, which is renting a house on a lake in Michigan and the whole family (8 adults and 6 children) stuff into a 3 bed/1 bath home for a week. It makes for some interesting yet fun times together.
Hanging out with girlfriends, going out for ice cream and eating it all before it melts. ![]()
fav summer activity: alternating naps on the beach with dips in the ocean.
also wanted to weigh in to say that the invitiation shown is a carlton crafts design. this was originally my first pick for invites but the quality is so-so at best. cards aren’t quite the right size, especially if you need multiple enclosures like me. if you want to check them out in person, papyrus carries this line…keep in mind that different stores have different names for particular invites.
i ended up picking out a different line from carlton crafts (the “endowment” pocketfolds) and ordering online for a significant savings vs. papyrus. this was a different website that was also cheaper than IC, though IC has a better looking site.
My most favorite summer day is down at the NJ shore. We will sit on the beach all day with friends, talk, eat and read all the gossip magazines. I stay on the beach until at least 5pm. I love that feeling coming off the beach that I might be a little burnt and then heading out for a fresh seafood dinner and off to dance the night away at one the bars!
Firing up the grill with my FI and sitting on the back porch as the sun sets, drinking a beer and just enjoying the day.
Swimming with my boy
He loves it so much… It’s still freezing up here in MI and he’s already jumped in a lake!
I love going to the beach with my family and friends… or having barbeque every Saturday… I’m easy to please… so… small get togethers with them are my fave, it always makes fun memories… be it summer, winter, spring or fall!
In Madison, WI, on the square lawn of the Capital Building the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra hosts “Concert on the Square” on Wednesday evenings. The sunsets to a beautiful soundtrack- simply gorgeous. Taking a big blanket with an evening picnic with good friends:
It’s DELIGHTFUL!
Favorite activity?? Sitting on the deck with a big ol glass of wine!!
Can I also mention that those green envelopes are the exact shade I am looking for!!
floating lazily in the lake next to my house! hopefully i’ll get to do some of that this weekend!

My favorite summer activities are riding my bike and family cookouts.
Impromptu late nights with our neighbor friends around the fires … with crickets as a soundtrack and lightning bugs as twinkly lights!
Reading under in the hot florida sun watching boats float by on the river or walking on the beach with my hunny!
Spending time on my fiance’s family’s houseboat. Soak up the sun, then sit around and chat….soak up the sun, then sit around and chat….soak up the …well you get my drift

Definitely our annual trip to Bethany Beach, DE. Been going there since I was 3 years old.
Lazy afternoons spent with family at my uncle’s lake plot on Lake Keowee are the best. Although this summer my family is taking a cruise (last summer where it’s just the four of us/parents anniversary) and I can’t wait to layout on the beach in Mexico!
