I have been driving to work lately in a strawberry wine daze. Sweet summer, is that you again? I’ve been thinking to myself, Welcome back, lover. Oh, welcome back to me. I don’t think it comes as any surprise that summer is my favorite. It’s not so much about the vacation, but more about the weather. I like sitting on my couch popping back frozen York’s in my bathing suit top with the fan on high. It suits me. Summer is just better. And that is that.

Spring, though. Was it ever good. We loved on Boston, soaked up the blooms, and ate the donuts, and the burgers, and the pies. We spent a day in Newburyport and I celebrated my friend EE’s bridal shower the right way: with hugs and shrimp and cupcakes.

Other than that I am just twiddling my thumbs and counting the days. {REAL TALK: running around like a crazy person and getting UBER EMO about my first graders leaving me. They’re honestly THE BEST.}

BUT SUMMER, I just love you.

BUT LITTLES, I’LL MISS YOU.

I am overwhelmed with feelings, let’s just keep it at that.

  1. Your instagrams are always so pretty! I’ve been dying to try Union Sq Donuts! Back in Atlanta I lived close to the best donuts ever (Sublime) and since we moved to Boston (wow, 6 months ago!) I have not had a single donut!

  2. You really do have a way with Instagram, Anna! I wish I could be less impulsive with mine buttttt oh well. See you soon I hope on a picnic blanket on the charles, preferably.

  3. Is that pretty thing near the top a floral wedding invitation!? SO pretty!

  4. Love these photos. You are very talented with Instagram! Definitely feeling a lot like summer :)

  5. YES TO ALL OF THIS! this just REEKS of summer loving and i cannot wait for all the berries and sandy butts and, basically sand everywhere. sand everywhere is a good sign of things. i cannot wait to see how lovely and beautiful your summer has, always love vicariously going through it with you, lady! and YES to baggu bags! i have a brown one and it is the mary poppins bag of my dreams.

  6. Summer IS the best. I just love it. Your photos scream happiness. Love those too! Enjoy your break and I hope you don’t miss your little one’s too much.

  7. YAY for summer! Fall has always been my favorite season, but summers in Boston are pretty magical. Looks like you’re making the most of it already.

    P.S. I started blogging again, and I’d love if you’d check it out :)

  8. Fall has always been my favorite. I’ve never been a big fan of summer since high school, because all it is to me now is a continuation of work. However, I’ve started to spend my weekends swimming at my cousins’ lake house, which has made this season a lot more enjoyable already. It reminds me of the weekend lake trips from when I wa a kid. I absolutely LOVE to swim, so I am rediscovering the excitement little by little. However, I am never jazzed about the mosquitoes and wasps. They can all die.

  9. summer is the best. and every now and then you forget and it comes and you’re like oh yes – this is the best. welcome back lover indeed.

  10. there are a lot of great pics here but i zoned in on that hibiscus cherry donut and i really want to try it.
