We took a family vacation to Maine to visit Jason's family. It was the first time the kids met Nana Clifford. We got to visit with aunts, uncles and cousins Jason hadn't seen in years and some I had never met before. We flew into Boston and drove up the coast. It was a long ride but beautiful scenery. We (as in Jason, me, the kids, Jason's dad, Jason's sisters Christel and Stef along with Evelyn and Shawn and Aunt Mary) all rented a house just outside of Bangor Maine called Winter Harbor. The house was right off the shoreline you could look out our room's window and see the ocean. The weather was cool but not cold, we had a great time and the kids had their first plane ride!

Gracie was attached to me the whole time, I only got a little time away on my own one day and that was while she took a nap. Jason and I want to go back soon, but just us and the kids. We love our family but going on vacation with them not the best.

Laughing with Papa Clifford

This picture was too cute, I just had to post it. This was the morning after the first night that Gracie spent over at Papa and Moo's house. Ofcourse she got up a couple of times as I am used to but my mother in law isn't. Though she was in a great mood in the morning as you can see from the picture above.

Train Ride

We took Joshua on his 2nd Train ride at the Northland Train Track by Line Creek. He seemed to enjoy it much more than last year. Though as you can see in one of the pictures he still looks a little frightened in the tunnel. Jason rode with him and I stayed with Gracie because there was no way she would have enjoyed it at all. We bought him a conductor hat that he loves!!

Slip 'n Slide Fun

The kids had some slip 'n slide fun in the backyard today. James and Jason had fun too.
