Remember those summers spent laying out at the pool, drinking QuikTrip slurpees, & taking random trips to Target on days off from your part-time job? This summer I've been nostalgic of those simpler times. Maybe that's because it's finally hit me, 5 years after graduation, that those summers are really never going to happen again.
July in Kansas still looks and smells like those lazy days of exclusively wearing swim suits, enjoying the sun during the day just to bide time before heading out on the town with the girls. Now I'm clad in pencil skirts and heels every day, lucky to get to the pool twice before September. Looking forward to lake weekends and plan-free evenings more than I ever imagined. These days, most of my time spent outside consists of weeding our jungle of a backyard or enjoying a much-needed glass of wine after work.
While a lot has changed over the last 5 years, I still love summer the most, and a good summer playlist is a necessity for road trips, lounging by a body of water, or an impromptu patio night with good friends. Enjoy!
