Summer Movie Lineup

One of my favorite things about summer is evening storms! We seem to have them a lot lately, in the late afternoon or right after dinner, the sun still pours in our living room but the rain is loud and it makes for the coziest movie nights! We have pulled out our camping tent twice this year already, and the girls love to pull the pillows off the couch and build a bed on the floor for movies. The other night we were picking out some of our favorite movies to add to our queue, and I thought this would be fun for a blog post!! I love all the things that evoke the feelings of the season, so watching a good baseball movie on a summer night will always be my favorite! Field of Dreams, anyone?!

Sharing a list of our favorites! Crack open the windows while it’s storming, make a big bowl of popcorn or some stovetop s’mores & throw back to some of the best summery movies of all time!

The Parent Trap

Eat Pray Love

Field of Dreams

Now & Then

Vacation

The Sandlot

Wedding Crashers

Bridges of Madison County

500 Days of Summer

And if it’s after the fourth of July, well then Hocus Pocus is totally acceptable, my kids insisted in reading the Grinch last night before bed so we are really getting ahead of ourselves. What are some of your favorites (including any Netflix series!) that you love to watch on a stormy summer night?! I would love to hear all of your recommendations! Happy Monday!! XO

    Haha my 3 year old watches The Grinch year round! I figure it just gives me the opportunity to remind her that Santa is watching her behavior lol.

    What did you do to hide all of the TV cords?? I have a cabinet similar to this and would love to use it for a TV stand but don’t want the cords to show!

      Our cable box & dvd player are inside of the left cabinet door, and they are plugged into a power strip inside there, which has the single power strip cord coming out of the back (we drilled a large hole in the back for the cord & to allow some air ventilation) and only that white cord is plugged into the wall 🙂

    Bloodline is the best summer series. Love this post, btw. My boys love throwing pillows and blankets on the floor inside their teepee to watch movies. They call it the “snuggle nest”. It’s adorable. And we definitely haven’t stopped watching Hocus Pocus since we DVR’d it in Oct. Halloween commercials and all ?

    The Sandlot and Now and Then are solid throwbacks. We also like to watch Stand by Me and Major League in the summer. I just finished the Netflix series GLOW, and loved it.

    One kid friendly one that we love is Big Friendly Giant! Trolls is always a big hit and we play the soundtrack in the car! I’ve recently started watching “Younger” on Hulu and am beyond obsessed!!! Netflix is premiering a new series called
    “To the Bone” that I’m looking forward to catching. But it’s very rare that I get any screen time. We’re out playing all day and after cleaning up and dinner and bed time shenanigans…I just want to plop into bed.

    I came across the show Riverdale on Netflix by accident and I ended up watching the whole season in two days! A great show for rainy nights. It’s been pretty humid here in Iowa so we spend our nights in the basement watching movies on our projector.

    Yep, once 4th of July is over, I’m ready for fall! Haha. The Sandlot is one of my favorite movies of all time and so is Now and Then! I can’t even believe you listed that because nobody else I know ever remembers that movie! I SO wanted to live back then after watching that movie. And the soundtrack is amazing.

    Love this,. We just pulled our “all the summer feels” movies the other day. I haven’t seen Field of Dreams so we’ll have to get ahold of that one but the 4 we pulled were:

    Sandlot
    The Great Outdoors
    Ernest goes to Camp
    Twister

    Thanks!

    Hi! This room is looking so lovely! I’ve been eyeing that anthro rug for like 2 years for my dining room. Reviews are mixed on the site which is why I hesitate. Do you find that’s it’s shedding or getting matted so far?
