Fun Summer Pics

The Carter's have had a very full and fun summer! Here are a few snap shots from secret garden adventures, dress up and family time.  

Low Tide, s'mores, and Lobster - HI

It is nearly impossible to choose from the pictures of H.I. But this is going to be the last post on H.I. because life is moving fast and I have to keep up!

Paul Paw carried Caleb lots

Emmy had no problems getting a little wet to find sea treasures!

Emmy was a big help when we went clamming, she carried the clams to wash them off and put them in the basket!

Caleb supervised clamming with Nini

Good night Harbor Island!

HI Sunsets

There is nothing in the world like a Harbor Island sunset and pictures don't do it justice but yet we continue to take pictures of it hoping to capture it's beauty.  Here are a few pictures from a few nights of sunsets! (the weather all week was awesome - sunny and warm with patches of fog)

Adventures on H.I.

Here are a few of the 500 pictures that I have from our time in Maine.  It was a wonderful time together seeing family and friends.  Emily was going non stop on adventures and hikes finding new animals and rocks.  Caleb was happy wherever he was.  And we all ate really well.  I will try to share more through pictures.  It really is hard to put into words any experience on Harbor Island!!!

This is how Caleb liked to travel most of the time!

So here is a little peek at what Caleb James is up to lately...

lots and lots of laughing and smiling.  Though as soon as he sees the camera it is straight face!

Power Outage Adventures

After Williamsburg we enjoyed a visit with Kelly Ann and Charlotte. Two days after they left we got hit with a big storm and lost power for 4 days.  It was hot and displacing but God is good and we enjoyed a nice (unplanned) visit to Philly.  

Our neighbors house after the storm!

Our impromptu 4th of July fireworks show - our county canceled fireworks because of the storm clean up! 

Lots of fun times with cousin Char Char
