I am probably addicted to social media. I check it numerous times a day, and I post a lot too.  One time I went on a ten day social media fast, and to be honest I didn’t feel like it was life changing, but it did make me realize that I like my phone too much. It’s my outlet. I don’t think I over compare myself to others, but it is fun to peak into other’s lives. This summer though I tried to be intentional. I didn’t post on my blog, because I was trying to soak up my time with my three girls. This is one of the reasons I love camping. Both my husband and I unplug and enjoy the present.

This summer we went on two camping trips, did day trips, and LB and I went to Girl Scout Camp. I have to say the best was Girl Scout Camp partly because I had zero cell phone reception. It wasn’t even a temptation. Since it was useless I turned it off. It felt like freedom. I don’t think I could do it in my day to day life, but it has gotten me thinking about choosing camping locations that don’t have cell phone reception.

That was my summer’s life lesson. Enjoy your family, escape to nature, and get off your phone. 🙂

That’s it. I just really wanted to share some of my summer photos.
