Kicked summer off with a trip to AZ in APRIL, celebrated my 25th in MAY, spent a week in paradise in JUNE, celebrated Cory's 28th in JULY, and somewhere in between all of that found out we have a baby on the way! I would say it has been a pretty good summer! To celebrate my absolute favorite time of the year, let's sing some summertime songs! :)
"Days go by,
I can feel 'em flying
Like a hand out the window with the wind as the cars go by,
It's all we've been given
So you better start livin' right now
'Cause days go by!"
-Keith Urban

"Hey, that's the way we do it,
new friends and blue skies that never end
Hey, that's the way we like it
Good times, sunshine and summertime!"
-Faith Hill
*****
"And dreamed of Para- para- paradise
Para- para- paradise
Para- Para- Paradise"
-Coldplay
"Some beach
Somewhere
There's a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair
Palm trees are growing and a warm breezes a blowing
I picture myself right there
On some beach, somewhere"
-Blake Shelton
"I'm somewhere, somewhere sunny and 75
You and me on a beach chair
Yeah, I'm so there every time I look in your eyes
Kissing you and the salt air
I can taste it, I swear
Take me somewhere sunny and 75"
-Joe Nichols
"And it's, two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love and an old Ford
Cheap shades and a tattoo
and a Yoo-Hoo, bottle on the floorboard.
Perfect song on the radio
Sing along 'cause it's one we know
It's a smile, it's a kiss
It's a sip of wine, it's summertime
Sweet summertime!"
-Kenny Chesney
"Summer nights
everybody are you with me
let that igloo cooler
mark your piece of paradise,
Summer nights
everybody's feeling sexy
holler if your ready
for some summer nights!"
-Rascal Flatts

"But the sun keeps settin', the days go fast
And the sand on the beach is like an hourglass
I can just feel it all slipping away
And babe I can already say that,
As long as I live, whatever I do
As great as it is, know what's a bummer
I ain't ever gonna beat this summer with you
Baby it's true
The taste of your kiss is so bittersweet
I ain't gonna beat, no way I'm gonna beat this summer with you"
-Brad Paisley
