New Hampshire - Live Well or Sigh

Hiking up to Newfound Lake is a tradition that I love taking part in! Year after year my cousins and I have squished into one house and spent the days on lake, nights by the fire and staying up late creating many memories. The view never gets old at the purest lake I know. We get great use out of my uncles boat as we participate in water skiing, wake boarding, knee boarding, and our favorite Mableing. Mable is shorthand for the Great Big Mable, a 4 person water couch per-say bound for a lot of laughs and hopefully just small injuries.

This week I pretty much brought my camera everywhere. After I had said "I wish I brought my camera.." a few times and Becca said, "Katie, I think its time to just bring your camera everywhere. You can't miss the opportunity for the perfect shot." What a wise girl that one is. I had a blast. Here's my picks from the 1,309 total.

Day 2 - We got a few scattered rainstorms, but luckily they cleared and the sun shined shortly after. If that seems odd, let me introduce you to this thing called New England weather!

Cousins & Cape Cod

It feels like I spent my whole childhood at Scusset Beach. People often tell me stories about me being there, that I was too young to even remember myself.

Well, I went back this past week to visit my parents who were staying down there. I brought my cousins Kristen and Becca. We got a camp site that had cable blocked by a tree (silly tree!!) and we were all almost out of data. In response, we got creative with what we had on hand - bikes, cards, my camera and picturesque surroundings. Here's what our week looked liked:

 (Kristen took the pictures of me as we mirrored this kid who took his senior pictures very awkwardly the day before, and since I actually have my senior pictures to take soon I thought it was fun to get in on the action)

We went out for seafood one night, a must on the Cape! This place had tables on a deck by the water, a pretty nice view to eat by!
