My sister Katie's in-laws were the best hosts and Derek's grandparents camp may be the cooloest place on earth. I tell ya, looking at these pics makes me want to be there and we hope to get back!
Our cottage on Toddy Pond. We didn't quite know what we were getting into. We figured we'd be roughing it a bit and I had the attitude that I'd just assume we were going camping...thankfully I was well-prepared! The cottage was very outdated, very smelly and very small BUT I'd stay there again now that I know that because of those things, this trip was that much more fun!

Thanks to Derek's Gram & Gramps...what great leaders of such a wonderful family! Thank you for being so kind and letting us spend our weekend w/ you and the family! xoxo
Gramps & Derek
Wish I had a pic of Cass but she flat out refused. She looked beautiful though and was off to 10th grade!
The girls off to a Princess Party...some princesses, huh!?!?!
Now we're at Gram & Gramp's camp, where we spent most of our time. This place was a piece of heaven. I could only dream of having what the Betts family has in this place. There are so many years worth of memories, great people having fun, GOOD food...just the best of everything! I'll never forget it!

Uncle D's family camp looks like a great time. I'm curious about the food, any good recipes we need to try?
wow where do i begin,
perhaps u should have done about 7 posts instead of 1.
you got some crazy good pics of Maine. why not some interior ones of our rustic cabins?
especially love the shot of caragh and reilly in the hammock.
speaking of caragh, she looked adorable in her ballet unitard and so big with her backpack on for school. way to go!!!

AWESOME ones of Toddy Pond!!!
We miss you guys already! It was so awesome to have you all get a taste of MAINE LIFE!! HAHA or should I say BETTS LIFE!
Such big girls you have! Not very good princesses though. They must get that from your side of the family. HAHA!
So... When are you coming back anyways?!?
