Camping Adventure 2018
Days 1-11. Maine. Hastings Campground. Martin Stream Campground. Schoodic Woods Campground. This year, for some reason, the twins and I decided to do a Camping Adventure 2018.

Abrams Pond 2015
Once again, the Lord blessed us, allowing us to be able to get to our favorite vacation spot for the fifth year in a row. Another week at Abrams Pond in Eastbrook, Maine. Often I sit and think just how fortunate I am. God has blessed my family and I so many more times than I could count, or even begin to fathom how or why we deserve life's rewards. So, with humility, I share the pictures that tell Continue Reading...
