Above: “We went to the Museum of Modern Art in Louisiana in Denmark. I learned about the co -inhagen post of Joanna a couple of years ago and they finally cost me to visit. My son Henry and I loved the installation of the bright lights of the souls of Yayoi Kusama, so magical!” – Katherine, Bremeton, Washington

“Here I am with my best friends at the University. Two of us have just turned 40, and one of us is going through a divorce. We had no idea how healing and Celebration would be to shout our faces with another 20,000 Backstreet Boys fans. No spa trip could be compared. ” – Lauren, Queens, New York

“This summer, I saw Backstreet Boys live for the first time, since I did not have the funds to see them. My husband came to Las Vegas with me, but none of my friends wanted to go to the concert, so I only bought my ticket and I had the time of my life. They interpreted my favorites, as ‘I want it like that’ and ‘drowning’. – Carol, Brooklyn, New York

“Kayaking with our dog, barley! Before having a son two years ago, our adventures focused on our dog. While our little boy kayak with grandmother and dad, we had to hang out with doggo like the old days.” – Aimee, Minneapolis

“Every year, a pair of swallows builds a nest on our front porch. We have learned that the magical number of babies to the cultivated drinks is three. More babies, and at least one dies due to the lack of space in the nest. This summer, there were five baby birds. We agonized by the possible deaths; all the burns.

“My family and I made a five -week road trip. I meticulously planned our stops, including baseball games, national parks, playgrounds, bookstores, etc. but one of my favorite moments was not planned. has to Go to Cathedral Falls. Seeing our son and daughter vishing in the currents was not parallel. ” – Kohinor, Queens, New York

“My nine -year -old son and I have ‘Spa Mornings’, where we do something together (a yogurt and honey mask, or a hand script with sugar and coconut oil) and then we pretend that we are running a spa day, complete with a lavender candle, sounds of nature and -the pièce of resistance: a blanket heated in the dryer.

“Every July, when it comes to more than 100 degrees at home, we go to the mountains for a week. We always walk four miles to Williams Lake in New Mexico. The path is full of wild flowers and rocks to rest, and our motivation is the pretzels and the beer that awaits us in the Bavarian restaurant at the end.” – Lisa, Edmond, Oklahoma

“I come with our second baby in September. We live in a small apartment with our preschool; I work with children; and I am introverted. Naturally, I constantly feel very discouraged. So, in July, my spouse and my son went to visit my in -laws, while I was left alone at home in happiness. I ate what I wanted, I cleaned after me only me, and I slept in the middle of the bed. Oakland, California

“My boyfriend and I visited Bután, where on my spiritual birthday I crossed the suspension bridge in Punakha. I was drizzling, and close to the end, he said: ‘Look back, there is an rainbow’.” EM, Pasig, Philippines

“For years, we have organized a shaving cream fight with our neighbors. We arrive glasses and swimsuits, and we exploit a reproduction list that includes Ozzy (RIP), Panther and the like. – Rebecca, Decatur, Georgia

“I live in Germany, far from my family in Kansas City. My older sister was traveling with her family in the United Kingdom, so I took the opportunity to meet them for a few days in London. After we lost our father in December, and my puppy died in January, hugging my sister in London I felt like the first exhalation I have achieved in this great year of pain.” – Anna, Hamburg, Germany

“Is there anything sweeter than lying in the grass while soft baby hands explore your face? My husband and I spent July 4 at the Troutbeck hotel, as we did in 2024 when I was pregnant. There is nothing more magical than realizing that the future we dream of last year is here.” – Sarah, Arlington, Virginia
