Oh how the time flies! We went to Maine for a couple of weeks and are still recovering from the trip. I can't believe the "summer" is almost over (although summer never really seems to end here in AZ) and that preschool starts again in less than 2 weeks. I have been sorting through the 2,000 + pictures I took in Maine... that's right over two thousand! So I am going to attempt to pick a few to post. Maybe I will have to start a Maine Monday entry so I can get all the stuff in that I would like to.
I absolutely love this picture of Julia. It was taken at like 6:45 in the morning. I know it's nothing spectacular but it is just a Julia expression and reminds me of our little walk. She decided to be an early riser on the trip and so she and I went for an early morning walk to the pond. It was a gorgeous morning and we got to see a great blue heron and a loon. The following is a picture from that morning... see how calm the water is with the reflection of the trees.
We also went canoeing a different day in the pond with Amara and Eliana. The water was a little rougher but it was lots of fun.
The Maine Coast
We went to the beach with my brother Travis's family and had lots of fun. Eliana and Amara had their daddies bury them....
Eliana and Amara in my parent's back yard.
I got some great pouffy pettiskirts and took lots of pictures of the girls in them. The following are a few in the yard.
Frogs
My brother and I loved to catch frogs when we were young so one afternoon I took Eliana out and we caught a couple of frogs. It was SO much fun! I seriously really enjoyed it. Of course we put them back after a couple of hours. Eliana loved her little frog friends, Ribbit and Ribbit.
Blueberries
We were in Maine at the height of wild blueberry season. The girls LOVED picking them and eating them, but mostly EATING them. A few did make it home and into pancakes and on toast. Yum, Yum!
That is just a start, but atleast I started!
