creative index is now union shore: Life According To My iPhone

So we've already been back about 2 weeks. And I already want to go back.
We didn't do anything that exciting. I didn't get to check out all my favorite spots or eat at my favorite restaurants - all the Buffalo things I miss so much. At first I was a little bummed, but then, it didn't really matter to me. I really just enjoyed spending most of the time with family.

NY Summer Visit 2016 - Creative Index

Lots of quite mornings and coffee chats... and squirrel watching too!
Days at my mom's & stepdad's cabin in the middle of nowhere. No wifi or cell service, completely unplugged!
Visits with my 90 year old grandma and holding all the sweet, new babies that I haven't met yet.
Spending the 4th of July weekend at our family cottage on Lake Erie. My absolute favorite place in the entire world.
Talking wedding plans and ideas with my sister.
Eating way to much pizza and making too many Tim Horton's coffee runs.
Watching the sunset almost every night.

Usually we're running all over WNY trying to meetup with friends and visit the places we love and miss so much. But I'm glad it was a quieter trip this time.

Family time is really all that matters.

Sounds perfect! I love unplugged time with family. I've yet to try Tim Horton's coffee & we have had a few pop up in St. Louis recently.

That sounds amazing. I love to be in the woods on the lake with family, nothing better!

This sounded like the perfect vacation....being unplugged for awhile is always a good thing:) Thanks for sharing these pics.

PS Timr Horton's anything always makes everything OK:D

I think as I've gotten older, I actually prefer the quieter & slow-paced vacations than the "let's cram everything we possibly can #YOLO" kinda trips I was so used to. So glad you got to spend time with your family!

Sounds like life lately has been sweet. :) I've never been to Lake Erie, but I've heard it's beautiful. Love that it is such a favorite place of yours! :)

Life has been great for you then! I took a break from my Facebook last week and didn't respond to any texts and messages and it felt great. Family time is really precious and I'm glad you took time to soak it all in! xo
