If anybody needed a vacation this summer, it was me!!! As sad as it sounds, I have not been on any sort of real vacation in 3 years! With that being said, we just got back from our first family vacation in the great state of Maine, otherwise known as Vacationland :)
I was hesitant to take a two year old on an airplane, but Sophia impressed us by how well behaved she was. Her excitement was adorable as she shouted things like, "up in airplane" , "I'm high in the sky!" We enjoyed a full 2 weeks in Maine with aunties, uncles, grandparents, and cousins. It was such a treat to take a vacation with the entire family. Traveling with 8 people and a toddler is no easy task, but it was well worth the memories that were shared!

| This is the view from our house. Its just walking distance to the ocean! |

| This is the amazing house we stayed it. It used to be two houses! It was built in the 1800's and has since been relocated. | | | | | | | | | | | |

| Men being men and chopping wood. My grandfather's house has a working water well, compost pile, and a wood burning stove. Pretty awesome if you ask me. |
 |
| Isn't this just a great picture of my mom and my sister? I love these ladies! |
 |
| Have you ever seen such fresh looking blueberries? This box of organic, wild, delicious blueberries cost $15 dollars. Where we live, this would cost about $40 dollars! I put these to good use by making not one, but two pies. mmmmm |
 |
| Watching these two interact makes my heart melt. I know she will grow up wanting to marry her daddy. |
 |
| Little girl with her Grumpy. Nope, its not a typo. We call him Grumpy. |

| How many pots does it take to make a lobster dinner? |

| A true Mainer's feast |
 |
| This poor guy doesn't know that he is about to be my dinner! |
