You know those summer days that are warm but a storm is rolling in!? You know that you’re going to need to get inside before the downpour? Those days spent at the cottage where you’re outside all day + the summer storm gives you the extra cozy reprieve from the hot summer sun? Andddd don’t get me started on how magical it is to sit around with friends and family enjoying a snack or two + taking in a summer movie while the rain is coming down but the air is warm. You know this type of magic, I’m sure.
George is at such a fun age where he will sit + take in a full movie and then want to talk about it–sometimes while the movie is on (HASHTAG HIS MOTHER’S SON!). Eloise enjoys a good cuddle so she’s always down for a family movie and Aaron + I are always down for a chance to sit down and relax on the couch with a drink in our hand (hot coffee for me, please!).
I am already dreaming up these summer movie memories for my family + I’ve compiled a list of classic movies that just scream summer and I wanted to share them with you. Please feel free to share your favourites in the comments below, I’d love to add them to our list.
I’m also thisclose to convincing Hubs to invest in a projector so we can have backyard movie nights under the string lights! Basically, my dream. Ahh, I can’t wait for all these sweet sweet sweet summer memories!
Oh, and there are soooo many other movies that we absolutely love over here (I’m looking at you Forrest Gump + Dirty Dancing) and I’m thinking I’ll create another list for the older kids/adults soon–would you like that!?
