My favorite summer tradition is heading to the beach with my family.
Our July 4th tradition is my favorite – going to the city’s big fireworks celebration downtown and spending the entire day with family and good friends. It is something to look forward to every year.
My favorite summer tradition is having family over for the 4th. We enjoy a cookout and set off a few fireworks.
I am a very enthusiastic gardener. And I grow my own heirloom tomatoes. My favourite tradition is the first toasted tomato sandwich of the summer season. I wait for it all year. Delicious!
I love fall. There are so many favorites. The crisp fall air with open windows at night. The holidays of Halloween and Thanksgiving and the changing colors.
We love attending our local county fairs every summer. So fun to see the exhibits & eat all that yummy fair food!
Favorite Summer tradition is the family reunion my family has in Tennessee.
Since it is just my husband and me, the only traditions we have is to go to the local farmer’s market that starts up in June. Everyone brings the bounties from their farms and the fresh fruits and vegetables are so good. I do believe that we eat so much healthier in the summer because of all the home grown food.
I don’t know if it it’s so much a tradition, but I love relaxing and hanging out by the pool with family and friends.
Going to a free concert at our big city park every Tuesday from late June to mid-August. We place a blanket early in the morning and return for the music and selected food vendors at 7 pm.
Making homemade ice cream during the hot steamy months of summer is our favorite tradition.
Riding our bikes around town.
Eating lots of ice cream, picking blueberries, and eating tomato sandwiches. Plus spending lazy days with my family outside soaking up the summer beauty.
My favorite summer tradition is having the grandkids stay overnight – one at a time. We do special things together, rock painting, card making, going to Dollar Tree, and out to lunch etc!
My husband and I start visiting all the museums in our area that have beautiful gardens and beaches. After strolling around we find the perfect spot and plop our chairs down and just sit and read our books and take in the summer!
Planting a garden and reaping the benefits all summer long is the best tradition in our household.
Such a fun fall release. The leaves and sentiments are so beautiful and the monster dies are so cute! My favorite summer tradition is cookouts with family and friends and playing yard games.
I just love having the extra time with family. We go on a beach vacation.
We have a family reunion with my husband’s side of the family – it’s immediate family – only his siblings and their families (kids and grandkids.) It’s the second Saturday of August at a local park. This year a few of the out of state family members we’re able to join us and we had 55 people attend. As the family grew (and grew and grew) getting everyone together on Christmas Eve became more problematic – so this replaced it. It’s amazing, seeing our nieces and nephews now with families of their own and seeing how much the great nieces and nephews have grown up in a year’s time.
I rediscovered calligraphy a few years ago, and for the past three summers I’ve been able to attend the IAMPETH conference to improve my skills. It’s something I hope to look forward to every summer.
A family getaway to the lake!
So many of my Summertime traditions take place in my garden. My cottage perennial and herb gardens make my heart sing (and keep me very busy) all Summer long! This week, I have been cutting armfuls of dried Annabelle Hydrangeas to fill baskets, crocks, and pitchers. It will be so cozy to enjoy these warm garden memories inside all Winter long while my garden sleeps! ?
Lazy days boating on the lake with family and friends!
Super excited for today’s release! My favorite summer tradition would be going for walks in the park.
We have a very large and famous county fair every August. It’s always a huge social event and 10 days of food, family and fun.
My favorite thing about summer is the relaxed schedule. No homework to deal with or school stress for my children. 🙂
I love to take my daughters for a swim at the local pool during summer school holidays then go to the ice cream factory nearby and get gelato.
State Fair! Wouldn’t be summer without corn dogs and fried dough at least once.
One day during the summer break we go and eat banana splits for dinner. My mom did this for me growing up and it was such a special treat.
Going to Cape Cod in Massachusetts every July has been a tradition for about 13 years. We go with our best friends and visit the same restaurants and shops every year. It may seem boring but the tradition of doing the same thing is comforting in this unpredictable world of ours.
Chilling. Just hanging at home and floating in the pool with family and friends.
Fireworks on July 4th at the Riverfront. It is an awesome display & such a display of patriotism!
Eating dozens of Blue Crab in the Eastern Shore of Maryland with good friends.
My favorite tradition is to take a leisurely evening stroll around our neighborhood when the day is still warm enough that I don’t need to put on a sweater or light jacket.
Summertime always means homemade ice cream – the old fashioned way. Ice, salt & taking turns cranking!
I guess my favorite summer tradition would be the fun pool parties with our three daughters and their families. Nothing better than fun times with family
Sitting outside roasting marshmallows is one of our favorite summer traditions.
My favorite summer tradition is going to the lake. It’s always so much fun to plan for and then just being there is so relaxing, whether it’s crafting or doing a puzzle in the lakehouse, having a campfire in the evening, or watching the stars late at night on the dock.
Nothing says summer like having it be peak CSA season!
Hands down it’s entering my rubber stamped cards at our State Fair and then going to see how I stack up against other stampers in my State. It is so fun to be a part of the Fair and I would encourage all of you next year to check your County or State Fair websites to see if there is a category for you. Come on ladies, be proud of your work and show it off!
Eating watermelon as it’s so hot here I. The south. The perfect summer fruit!
Laying out on a hammock near the beach reading a book!
My favorite summer tradition is to have friends and family over to enjoy time catching up and relaxing in the pool. It is a great way to beat the heat. And I so enjoy what I call pool food – watermelon, fish tacos, and refreshing cocktails!
My favorite summer tradition is going around to the various festivals. In my area, there is usually a different one every weekend, sometimes there are more than one. And the things these festivals celebrate are amazing…..Popcorn festival, pretzel fest, corn festival, etc.
Our favorite summer tradition is to take car rides on the Blue Ridge Parkway, sometimes packing a picnic lunch or supper. On hot days the temperature at the higher elevations is about 20 degrees cooler.
My favorite summer tradition is having campfires and cooking over the fire with the grandchildren.
My Favorite Summer tradition is visiting my family in Pennslyvania. My Brother lives in Ireland and every summer he comes in with my niece, nephew, and sister in law and we all stay near my parents and my identical twin sister who has kids the same age. It’s sooooo much fun!
My favorite is a family reunion in Florida at Siesta Key Beach.
Our cul-de-sac only has seven houses and every night we all get together to play bubbles! We have a bubble blowing machine and bubble wands. The kids laugh and the adults chat. We end the evening with everyone eating popsicles!
Family reunions. Seeing family and friends come together. I especially love the evenings watching the kids chase fireflies and adults sitting around talking and laughing.
My favorite summer tradition is our family vacation. My husband is a teacher so we basically only vacation in the summer, usually right after school let’s out.
My favorite summer tradition is going to OutsideLands in Golden Gate Park with my daughter every August. We have so much fun listening to all the music and so many yummy treats to eat too!
Spending time at the lake with friends and family.
My favorite tradition is taking my boys & their friends to a day beach trip to East Tawas Michigan…..we go shopping in little downtown shops, grab a pizza for lunch, then spend the day lounging & splashing on the beach. The kids are teenagers & they still look forward to it every year!
My favorite tradition is watching the fireworks for 4th of July. We used to go in person, but now we watch on TV. Not the same, but I still love it!
Picnics are a favorite of mine!
Going camping, seeing new and interesting parks and curious places.
Fabulous release! We really don’t have summer time traditions. We try to spend some time up north & spend as much time as possible with the family & friends!
Spending time with family going to the parks for biking, hiking and picnics.
It just becomes Barque season…the grill is out and everything seems to go on it! The backyard is set up …all ready for us or company.
Going to the beach and getting ice cream.
For the last 14 years our family has gone to a lake. The grandkids have loved this vacation spot and look forward to it every year. There is something for everyone…golf. boating, paddle boards, skiing, wave runners. Wake boarding, and so much more.
Favourite summer tradition … it’s today … the Feast of The Assumption, which is a holiday here. Every village has it’s own way of celebrating … sung processions, mass, shared picnics, music and dancing, fireworks after dark … it’s wonderful! Anita 🙂
We always try to make it home for our annual family reunion. We can’t always make it due to the expense of flying, but we love seeing our family when we are able to get home.
Going for a road trip with my dear Husband! Just a cruise where we decide our route once we’re on the road. We always take different roads, and totally enjoy the beauty of God’s Creation!! Never taking the same route, so we always see something different!
Going on a family beach vacation is our tradition.
My favorite summer tradition is going to our timeshare together as a family, to be in the beautiful canyon near the lake, just before summer ends and the leaves of autumn begin to arrive. It is lovely to be together in nature as the busy energy of summer winds down. I enjoyed the new product introductions this week. The design team always make me want it all! Thank you for all the lovely inspiration.
This may not seem like a big tradition, but we have a wonderful screened porch that looks onto woods behind our house. We love to sit out there for meals and watch birds come and go from all our feeders.
My favorite tradition is going to the state fair and looking at the animals, the 4-H exhibits, and eating ice cream from the dairy farmers.
Growing flowers and veggies at a local community garden… meeting fellow gardeners and observing the variety of native pollinators is an added plus!
Our favorite summer tradition can vary from year to year. Getting my hands dirty with rich dark earth when I’m gardening is always rewarding to me. Day trips to beach are loaded with surprises too

Celebrating the 4th of July is my favorite summer thing to do. Even when I was a kid, it was always a big deal in my family. I enjoy seeing your Halloween products – another of my favorite holidays.
My new favorite summer tradition is sailing!
I find the cool air and beautiful autumnal colors to be so inspiring. It’s my favorite time of the year! It’s such a happy and relaxing time for me that hopefully includes a trip to New England!
My favorite thing about fall is actually a combination of things. I love the colors that nature blesses us with as well as the cooler temperatures. The cinnamon and spice and pumpkin flavors are such comfort flavors to me. Fall is my most favorite season of all!
I’m always said to see summer end, but I love the cool crisp days as fall settles in.
I’m totally confused as to whether I’m to leave a favorite summer tradition or my favorite thing about the fall season? My favorite thing about the fall season is the color! My favorite summer tradition is renting a house on the OBX and having all the family together for a week!
Fall is my favorite season tho we don’t get much of it here in Southern California. I love the hint of coolness in the air and the changing colors in the leaves! And of course…fall is the start of the holiday celebrations. ?
Summer is when I visit my children and grandchildren so it’s always a special time of year.
My favorite summer tradition is having a BBQ for our family and friends! My husband smokes ribs and we have live entertainment. The first year we had so much fun doing it to celebrate his birthday, so the following years we call it our NDR party! (NDR = no darn reason) Nice to reconnect with everyone we see less often than we wish.
Love all of the Fall goodies but the ones that really speak to me are the Halloween monster and dies. I don’t normally create many Halloween cards anymore but now having 11 grandchildren and teaching 7 year old’s in church, I am thinking these stamps and dies are just so cute and I get to share these little treats with my darling little “monsters”!
Love Fall because of the gorgeous colors of nature, warmth of fleece and kids are back in school so fun places to go aren’t as busy during the week!
I think I may have started a new tradition for me and my husband: making healthy ice popsicles, so that we can enjoy an ice cream every day during the hot Cretan summers.
Fall is my favorite time of the year! I love the trees changing color! We have a beautiful show of colors here in northern CA!
My favorite summer pastime (not sure I can call it a tradition) is working in the garden. I love planting flowers and watching them bloom over the summer months as well as watching the butterflies and bees fly among them from the porch swing.
When it’s time to break out the warm cozy sweaters, see the leaves changing colors and decorate with pumpkins and gourds, I know autumn has arrived.
Best thing about fall are the (still) warm days and the CRISP nights…nothing like a fall breeze drifting through the open windows!
We enjoy having our grandkids during their summer break.
I love summertime trips to visit family, friends and new places.
Our favorite summer tradition is going camping.
Here I was trying to think of my favorite summer tradition, when you changed the question on us. LOL So….my favorite thing about fall is the kids going back to school and I have more time to make cards! LOL If only!!! I, also, like the wardrobe change…. jeans, boots and sweaters.
I love getting together with my entire family for Thanksgiving dinner.
The house is full of good times and good eats!
My favorite summer tradition is the annual “pool opening” party we have every year. Because we have solar heat panels, we can open several weeks before most people. Always look forward to it.
Fall is really an extension of summer here in San Diego, so the best part is after Labor Day when the beach at Del Mar reopens to leashed dogs for long walks with my husband and our 4 legged friend. I also enjoy the fresh crop of Honeycrisp apples at the market!
Fall is beautiful in Vermont with all the changing colors on the trees and a crispness in the air. My birthday is in the Fall and I love pumpkin pie and comfort food. This release has been amazing!
My favorite summer tradition is picnicking at the Hollywood Bowl before the show. We go with family and friends and it’s always a good time.
Love all the wonderful Fall baking using apples, pumpkins, pears and so many wonderful spices.
Our yearly cruise is a summer tradition; this year we went to Canada.
Fab new products in the releasing. The changing season brings such an appreciation for nature and its splendour. Fall temps are just perfect.
My favorite tradition is attending all of the fun music festivals throughout the summer!
No matter what the season, I enjoy walks in the woods, taking our dog for walks, visiting my adult children, and taking photographs. This year I am looking forward to improving my night photography skills and vacationing in the San Juan mountains of Colorado.
though I struggle with loving fall, I do love the colours, the way the trees turn colour, and anything apple and pumpkin!
I love the colorful fall leaves, taking my kids to the pumpkin patch and making apple crisp!

My favorite thing about fall is the cooler nights and getting dark earlier so we can enjoy campfires and cookouts together!
Walking in the park and kicking the leaves!
Living in New England it has to be the fall colors! Crisp days and apple picking are close!!
It’s a tie…we have Ring of Fire on Conesus Lake in NY on July 3rd, and go to Manahawkin/Long Beach Island in New Jersey in August!
The best thing about fall is sleeping with the windows wide open after the long summer months of a/c and humidity.
Ack, do I have to pick just one??!! I think Fall is my favorite season–I love the crisp, clean air after a hot, humid summer, being able to wear jeans and sweatshirts again, the smells, the leaves (except raking them!), pumpkins, apples, . . . on and on and on. But my favorite might be how blue the sky is!
The fall or autumn season is rich in colored leaves that crunch as you walk upon the fallen ones on the cooling earth.
My favorite summer tradition is eating watermelon.
Going to outdoor concerts.
What I like about the fall are the fall foliage and the cooler temperatures.
Favorite summer time fun is when all the grandkids and great-grandkids come for the day to swim and then have grilled sweet corn. Many memories…

The holiday traditions and festivities are the best part of the fall season for me.

Halloween of course.
Fall is my favorite season, so it’s hard to choose one thing. Probably the colorful leaves are my favorite, and I also love the cooler weather and all the pumpkin spice foods!
The smell in the air, and the gorgeous days that are not too hot, not too cold!!
Fall to me means early morning crispness in the air and beautiful sunsets! I also love the colors and fall decorating. This is the first year I have had a pumpkin plant in my regular flower garden. Can’t wait for the pumpkins to be ready!
Fall is the best time of year because it transitions between hot summer and winter cold. Plus I love the color of the leaves when they turn, pumpkin pie, soup and all the new Fall shows. Wonderful new collection!
Fall season favorites? Festivals, Apple picking, Apple cider, donuts, a warm crackling fire, jeans, sweaters, and boots!
I love the beautiful colors of fall!
COOLER weather! Although in Virginia sometimes it doesn’t get cool till almost winter. But one can hope!

My new favorite summer tradition is going to the local amusement park, Knoebel’s Grove in Elysburg, PA. I grew up at this park 40 some odd years ago. We weren’t able to get there as often as we would have liked when we lived out of the area, but now that we’re back, we try to go at least once each year. Makes me feel like a kid again.
My favorite thing about the fall season is nature’s spectacular colors!

Fall is my very favorite season. I love going for long, leisurely drives on back country roads – stopping for gorgeous leaves, walking a trail and inhaling the scents of fall.
I just love when it gets a little cooler, leaves start falling and the holidays are around the corner!!
I love the smell of fallen leaves and how the air is so crisp – sunny warm days without the humidity are a bonus as well!
