After last week’s 10 Things to do this Summer post, I got a bunch of suggestions for more of this season’s must-do activities. These ideas deserved there own list, so here are 10 more things. Thanks for all the feedback…and if you have more, let me know. Hope you enjoy.
By the way, Christine was the winner of the OPI Summer Beauty Giveaway. And there’s another giveaway that starts on Sunday the 4th!
1. Make soap bubbles. Then blow them outside some lazy summer afternoon and remember how magical bubbles seemed when you were a child. (Here’s a 5-star bubble recipe.)
2. Flag down the neighborhood ice cream truck and have a push-up bar or another favorite frozen treat.
3. Dine alfresco. Find a rooftop or patio restaurant and enjoy dinner or drinks under the stars.
4. Another “under the stars” option is to spread out a blanket in the backyard and enjoy a starry night. (Don’t forget the bug spray.)
5. If you live in one of the few places that still has a drive-in movie theater…go take in a movie. (Bonus points if you make out with your date during the film.)
6. Go to the local Farmers Market. Not only is the food amazing, but it gives you a chance to buy locally and support your community.
7. Jump in the pool! If you have your own pool – this one’s pretty obvious. But if you don’t have a pool out back…when was the last time you went swimming? If it’s been awhile, try to do it at least once this year. Floating on and gliding through the water feels so freeing!
8. Roast marshmallows and/or make S’mores. Yum!
9. Enjoy an outdoor music event. My favorites are jazz festivals.
10. Finally, since we’re 2 days away from the 4th of July…go watch fireworks. And remember the true reason we celebrate each year. (Just like Christmas, sometimes the real meaning of this holiday is forgotten.)
Have a happy and safe 4th!

First of all that hat is fabulous! I do love that image. My favorites from your list – dining alfresco, taking in music outdoors, visiting a farmer’s market and watching a movie at a Drive- In (love doing this). Enjoy taking in the fireworks this weekend. =)
