Up in the Air

With this absolutely gorgeous summer weather, all I have been thinking about is being outside. I tried to soak up as much sun as possible this weekend between running, soccer games, and pool time... I can't get enough!

Recently, I started making a little summer bucket list. I am determined to pack this summer with fun adventures and cool new activities. While on the hunt for fun things to do, I recently learned that on the top of a high rise in downtown is the coolest outdoor urban park.

Within moments of discovering the Green Roof, I added it to the bucket list in no time flat. And I might have also sent BF a text saying we need a picnic/urban park date ASAP!

I just love the idea of being surrounded by lush gardens and flowers while a gorgeous downtown landscape is the backdrop of your sunset extravaganza. Take a look at some of these gorgeous rooftop terraces... I'm in love!

I just want to transport myself to those places! When I lived in San Francisco, several friends had rooftop terraces on top of their buildings. We would spend all afternoon up there drinking wine and sharing appetizers, and it was so romantic and beautiful when the sun was going down.

Those of you who know me, know that (500) Days of Summer is one of my all-time favorite movies. I blame that gorgeous balcony scene for my love of rooftop soirees. And I'll betcha I'm going to cross that one of my bucket list by the end of summer!
