Summer Lovin' Photo Contest Finalists!

First I want to say, thank you all for participating!  It was super fun to see all your pictures of what summer means to you.  You guys took some beautiful pictures!

Now it's time for the finalists!!  Drum roll pleeeaaasssseee......

In no particular order, first up we have sweet little Aveline.  Gina over at Oaxacaborn submitted this photo of her beautiful daughter and her infectious smile. 

Here's how Gina describes summer: "It’s summer. I can smell it in the fresh air blowing in through the open French doors as I sit drinking my coffee out of a cobalt mug. I can see it in the wind that blows through Sierra’s long silky fur, and I can taste it in the tender lettuce greens heaped high on my plate."

Then we have Liene from Femme au Foyer.  She is a Latvian expat living in France! We live about an hour and a half from each other, what a small world!

"Sometimes you remove the seeds. Other times, you eat them first."  Super cute!!

Photo #2 ~ Lovin the seeds!

And lastly, we have Lesley from Fabulously Flawed.  I love her photo because it is a different take on summer.  Here is what Lesly had to say about what summer means to her:

"This is summer to me.  We live out in the country.  In summer our front field blooms with a million wildflowers. It's really so lovely.  My daughter and I gather up cookies and tea and have sunset picnics.  It's really one of my favorite things about life, let alone summer."
