Our Maiden Voyage!!

Man have I been ignoring my poor family blog! Summer has been crazy busy so far with work and trips out of town and family outings. There's just doesn't seem to be enough time in the day!

But, Ted and I purchased a new (to us!) travel trailer a month or so ago and we absolutely adore it! Basically, when I'm at home, I'm working... or sleeping. And unless we're eating together or out somewhere, I don't get a whole lot of quality family time. We figured that getting this trailer would make it easier for us to just pick up and go. With Ted being off work waiting for shoulder surgery, we are pretty flexible on when we can leave.

It's been AWESOME! The kids love it, we love it... it's our home away from home!





Kids are LOVING being able to roast marshmellows this year!





It rained just about every day we were up at Rolley Lake for at least 15 minutes at a time... no worries... we just headed inside and had some lunch!



Our good friends Brian and Leigh (or our Trailer Buddies) as we like to call them bought their trailer quite a few months ago and it's awesome to have good friends to take off with!



Ahh.... pure relaxation! And yes, there is definitely Bailey's in that coffee right there! LOL







I bought myself a little point and shoot a couple months back so that I would start taking snapshots of the kids more... and not just the perfectly posed, perfectly composed shots, but the down dirty, au naturelle, shots. Love it!

Horray! I am so glad you are capturing the family memories now because they are just as important as the family memories you capture for others!
I love the marshmallow pictures!

Like I said before, it's so great to see you relaxing!!

(And isn't it so nice to just take PICTURES and not have any pressure?? I feel like my family is always expecting perfect pictures these days...)

Great family pics, Ash and Jake as always are too cute!

These are the times the kids will always remember ! I hope you get to do it often, especially since you are enjoying it so much.
