Give others more grace
Spend one day each week
doing things I really love
Go wading in a stream
Make one new good friend
Lay out on a quilt under the stars
Sew an apron out of an old pair of overalls
Have a picnic in the mountains
Make homemade jelly or jam
Go to an outdoor play or concert
and see the movie The Help
Visit the farmers market (often)
Go barefoot whenever I can
Let my hair grow
Plant several somethings and watch them grow
Visit my friends whom I don’t get to see
that much during the months I teach,
especially Sally, Barb, Alice, and Dulcy
Talk to my neighbors more
Slow down and enjoy each day
moment by moment
with a thankful heart
I would love to know what are some of the things on your summer list? Sweet summer blessings
to all of you my friends. The top photo is from my own personal collection of vintage photos
that I have been collecting for 10 years now. Be sure to check out my next post when I will
be talking about and sharing a lot of them with you to use however you would wish!

Superb list! It's too soon for me to be thinking about a summer list - we're still a few weeks away from our time off, but slowing down and enjoying the moment will definitely be one to put high up on the list.

ps that's such a cute photo!
Hi sweet, what a beautiful list of wishes,- I so hope they come true for you, Katie,dear.
My summer is bussy with turists in the shop, and not much time for walking barefooted, or slowing down ,at all. But my looking forward to, is seing my daughter,son-in-law,and the two kids, here next month :)
I just have to slow down a bit when the visits.
Happy summer to you-with hugs, from me.

This is so precious, Katie! I am going to have to think carefully about mine. It is a good idea.
How was your KC Willis camp?
Hugs,
Suz
That's a wonderful list! About the only lists I make lately are grocery lists. We are on summer holiday and I am enjoying piddling in my pajamas every day. I am such a homebody and enjoy every minute of it. Have a fabulous Friday, Tammy
Hi Katie!! Isn't Summer wonderful??? Aren't we so lucky to be able to have it to relish and play with? I hope you are getting some of the list whittled down. I can not wait to see The Help- read the book and loved it. Your list has inspired me to do one of my own- a Summer Bucket List per se... Hugs!!!
This is a great list of summer things to do. I plan to read more often, enjoy all the summer fruits that are available, take lots of art classes, and try to stay cool.
Enjoyed reading your list so much dear Katie
...being barefoot around the house and garden is one of my favorite things and I am letting my hair grow too!
My world has not stopped whirling since February...I am looking forward to some quiet time and a chance to reflect
hope you had a lovely time at your KC class!
thank you for touching my thankful heart with yours!

Hi dear Katie,
what a wonderful list.I will be gardening a lot and try new things:)Hope you had fun at the KC Willis camp. Wishing you a wonderful week.
Hugs,
Marie
What a good idea to make a list- its so easy to let time go by without getting the things done that are really important to us- I'm going to think about my list today- and then WRITE SOMETHING down.
Hey Katie, first on my list is to say thanks for the sweet note and thanks so much for picking that precious old wicker settee. I just loved it, but didn't have a place for it anymore. It had been in my dining room for ages.
Hope you're having a wonderful summer!
lots of hugs and love,
Debra
I love your list, I haven't yet made one of my own, might be borrowing a few of your ideas! love the quilt under the stars, a reason to get that top sewn together!!Mx
Best list ever and more than a few things I need to put on mine! (The Help is already there!) I love posts like this -- they make me think AND give me ideas!
Run through a sprinkler. Kiss a baby. Your list is wonderful! (We are all a bunch of "The Help" fans aren't we?!! Great book. Hope the movie does it justice!)
Happy 4th Katie! Enjoy the day~~~
I don't have a list - yet - but you've inspired me, as usual!! I love the way you blog. And art. And live:)
xo
I love your list! I always write a bunch of things down that I want to do...and then look at it every once in awhile and see if I can go somewhere and do something NEW! ♥
