Saying goodbye to summer~ A peek into our summer adventures documented with my iphone

Hello out there!

If you frequent this blog of mine, you have probably noticed, I don’t post a lot of personal photos very often.

And if you don’t follow me on Instagram then you may not know this about me:

I am full fledged, self-proclaimed camera phone addict-

I can’t help myself!

its just such an easy way to capture all of those little moments

and share with our family and friends back in CA!

So, today I thought I’d share a bit of my  personal life through pictures-

*****

complete with trips to Maine, Vermont, Niagara Falls, Montreal and Quebec City Canada,

Rhode Island beaches, California, Outdoor movies, Drive-in movies,
