We are back from camping, safe and sound. Albeit I might never recover from all the mosquito love. They are by far my biggest fans!
Thanks for sharing your favorite photos with us last week and thank you Heather for a great idea. Before we share our listicles about SUMMER, here is next week topic, chosen by Kerry:
@NorthWestMommy do you have a list of words that make you smile? Maybe it's the way they sound or the meaning – perhaps a #mondaylisticles?
— KerryRivera (@breadwinningmom) June 24, 2013
Make a list, check it twice, link it up. Read others. Have fun!
10 SIGNS OF PACIFIC NORTHWEST SUMMER

My friend Nola got me hooked on these Pemco commercials. They are all brilliant.

Ahaha! Love that commercial. One year we had to dig trenches around our tent because the rain was so heavy. Oh brother.

Summer in the Pacific Northwest sounds a lot like summer in eastern Canada! Glad you had fun camping. (And mosquitoes love me, too.)

Ha ha, that sounds a bit like summer in Germany in some years. We have had more than our share of rain, but luckily it seems to become warm again

Girl Scout camping was my fav thing to do when I was a kid and I still have fond memories of it now that I am a grown up. Your kids will have great memories too.
Thanks for throwing such a great link party!

Very true list! We went camping up at Lake Cushman one year and I was quickly reminded that it is at the edge of the rainforest. It was very much like that commercial for a few hours, tarp and all!!

Your list cracks me up. Here in the midwest we have the coldest of winters and the hottest of summers…and not much in between! Your sweaters and heaters really make me smile. It sounds like my kind of place because I would much rather wear a sweater to the beach than a swimsuit!
Also, this has been the most enjoyable Monday Listicle topic for me. I have so enjoyed reading everyone’s lists about summer and it has me really pumped for the season. Thanks again for hosting this awesome list-making opportunity!

blissfully happy! So true. I couldn’t watch your video since I’m at work but I’ll have to check it out since camping is on our summer bucket list.

I love being able to wear sandals and sundresses in the summertime! We don’t usually get a lot of rain in my neck of the woods (Upstate NY), but we’ve been getting slammed – it has probably rained or stormed every single day in the month of June. We are not used to that.
