Just for participating in this blog hop, you get a freebie from each blog, and I decided to give away 2 items from my Tpt store. The first is my set of "Hey Kids" clipart.

I really do love the summer. All year long I look forward to it. Warm weather, fireworks, delicious fruits, barbeques, spending time outdoors, swimming, the list goes on and on... Anyway, here are a few fun facts about me and summer:

-The thing I am looking forward to most about summer is the Fourth of July. My favorite holiday! Every year we run in a 5k race that goes along the parade route. It is so much fun because people are already there saving seats for the parade and they cheer us on along the way. We love to dress in our patriotic gear and have a blast. They have a balloon festival that starts around 6:30, so as we are getting ready and starting the run, the sky is full of hot air balloons. After the race we sometimes stay and watch the parade. Then during the day we have picnics and play games and do fireworks at night. It is the best!

-I grew up in Texas and my favorite summer memories are swimming in our pool and going to Utah to visit my cousins every year. We were usually there over the Fourth of July, so I grew up going to the same parade that I now run the 5k at.

-I also love to swim, swim, swim in the summer. I really wish I had a pool. Last year I bought a kiddie pool that I plan on spending a lot of time in this year with my toddlers. Growing up I would get in the pool first thing in the morning and swim all day long. I got out to watch Saved By The Bell, then swam some more. I love to swim.
