Naples

Our first real day in Maine begged the question, what to do? What to see? So we headed off to one of the nearby towns (nearby meaning like an hour plus away).  Regardless, we set off for a nice little lake side town called Naples.
They had a seaplane on the lake to rent!

Flowers for mom
 

I decided to chase some ducks : )

Kennebunkport

Sorry for the delay! Work has been crazy. Anyways, stop number 2 of our venture to Maine found us at Kennebunkport for a quick stop.  The entire coast was so foreign and cool to me with the different morphology of the coast in contrast to the sandy, flat beaches of Delmarva. We also stopped across the water from the Bush vacation house and got to see the spiffy Secret Service boat go zooming away, pretty cool.  Check em out!

Tide Pool!
Rocky Coast
Didn't even get the camera wet.

A Maine Breakdown

My dad so very graciously agreed to appease both my mom and I in such a fantastic way.  As we began our travels to Center Lovell, Maine he took probably the longest way possible there and to boot allowed us to yell constantly to stop and take pictures.  The highlights for our Northbound trip included Perkins Cove and Kennebunkport both in Maine. While in Lovell we had the chance to spend some great time with family and make some other trips to take some pictures as well.  Other picture sites include Kezar Lake (where we stayed), Naples, Lake Sabago Park, a local market, and my aunt's house.  On the return trip, my dad was amazing once again and full of wonderful suprises for me! We returned home by way of Portland, ME and Mystic Seaport, CT.  To post photos I think I will do a breakdown per the location and/or subject over the next few days! Stay tuned!!

4th of July Adventure

This years venture to Ocean City for the 4th of July was a very relaxed one. Our trip consisted of a lot of time in the campground and some trips to the boardwalk and the beach. Overall, my free time with camera was either with the dogs or for the sunset in OC.

Cupcake In a Jar!!

My newest venture in cupcake baking...presenting Cupcake-In-A-Jar!!!


The first experiment was created especially for Tommy, one of my co-workers at Ultimate. This pictures shows the "normal" cupcake in a jar next to the Tommy size creation. The cupcake is lemon with a raspberry filling topped with vanilla buttercream icing and some yellow sprinkles on top : )
