Reminders of Summer

There are lots of things that remind me of my childhood summers.  We loved playing in the sprinkler to cool off from hot summer days.  

It is fun watching the kids having a blast with a baby pool and a water hose.  There are lots of squeals and laughter in our backyard.

Another summertime memory is catching fire flies at night.  We would catch them and put them in a mason jar to watch them light up.  No bugs harmed.  The kids have enjoyed staying up a little later to catch fire flies.  They even named the two that they caught.  Charlotte and Marshall were with us for a day.  May they rest in peace.

What is your favorite childhood memory of summer?  Enjoy lazy days and late evenings.
