Summer Time Is Almost Here

Summer doesn’t just arrive in the Hanson house — it explodes.
In this deeply personal episode of We Are the Hansons, Myia opens the door wide and invites you into the sacred in-between — that stretch of days right before summer officially begins. The air shifts. The evenings linger. The kids stop asking about homework and start asking, “When are we going?”
With thirteen kids, four grandbabies (and one more on the way), summer isn’t a season — it’s an event.
From packing the van for Florida to leaving room for a second mystery trip, Myia shares the beautiful chaos of family travel, why shared experiences matter more than perfect plans, and how memory is built mile by mile. She talks honestly about marriage in busy seasons, raising a large family through warm months, and the quiet realization that every summer is the last summer of this version of your child.
You’ll hear about:
- Why travel is one of the greatest teachers
- What summer really looks like in a big family
- How to stay connected in marriage when the house is loud
- The power of shared memories
- A no-bake summer dessert recipe your kids will ask for every year
- And why this summer feels different
This isn’t just about beach trips and palm trees.
It’s about presence.
It’s about gratitude.
It’s about choosing your people on purpose.
Whether you’re packing a van for the coast or planning a simple backyard fire, this episode will remind you that the most important adventures don’t require perfection — they require intention.
Summer is almost here.
Go plan something.
