Campfire’s under the stars with hot dogs and pie irons.

Reading a book on the beach, while the kids splash in the ocean-- Katherine in a bikini of course.

Early morning coffee on the deck, as the sun peeks through the trees.

Freezies, and lemonade, and pancakes and watermelon and so much ice cream perched on top of sugar cones…

These are the things that flash across the screen of my mind when I think of a dreamy summer.

It turns out that before you can have a dreamy summer you have to decide what exactly a dreamy summer looks like for your family.
