Maine was wonderful!

Maine was WONDERFUL. We arrived after midnight at the house. Stupid airline LOST the CARSEAT! Oh, I was PISSED. But R was asleep when we got there. Keep in mind that he hadn't seen them since he was 1 1/2 years old. He got up on Thurs, went downstairs with his cousins (we were still sleeping) and hugged and kissed his aunt & uncle!!

So Thurs we went and saw my IL's house out there. That was interesting. The kids were going into the basement ("Don't let them hit the pipes, they have aspestos on them!"), under the house, under the porch and out a window to the front yard. The house has 2 old cisterns that were used for storage. So bil had to go into those to clean them out. Yep, I married into the Addams Family.

Fri we went to a water park. Yes, in Maine. lol It was a blast! The kids had so much fun. Ok, so did us adults! lol

Sat the neighbors came over for dinner. So B & his bro took the kids to play mini-golf & go to this local train village. G & I went to Damarascotta, shopped, had lunch then went to the grocery store to get stuff for dinner.

Sun we had a brunch to celebrate my IL's 45th anniversary. Then we took the day off. The kids played and swam, Brad & T went kayaking. G & I vegged out.

Mon we went to the beach. R was using a boogie board. Ok, so the water maybe came up to this ankles but it was still cute! lol I made enchiladas for dinner.

Tues B went to help his dad for the day, T worked, MIL watched the 3 boys, G & I went shopping, for lunch and pedicures. :) Went to the L.L. Bean flagship store. That was cool. Hit a few other stores. Bought R this costume: [url]http://www.childrensplace.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10001_10001_-1_562674_92421_72478|72476_halloween|boys%200-6m-14(xl)%20_seasonal[/url] and a few shirts.

Wed we were going to spend the day in Portland, but B wanted to see the L.L. Bean store (the doors have no locks. They are always open.) so we did that and a few other things, went & checked into our hotel, got ready for dinner with the WHOLE family and then came back to the hotel, went to bed and got up super early to fly to Philly! My sil's brother & his wife managed to come out on that day from Oregon for 3 days. So we all met for dinner. It was CRAZY!!! lol It was me, Brad, Riley, bil, sil, 2 boys, her mom & dad, her bro and his wife. But it was fun!
