Here is the whole crew (Williams, York, Ridlon) in Darcy's beautiful back yahd. I would love to have rocks like these in our yard. Darcy is quite the landscaper. =)
From left to right Katie-Beth, Ramona, Mike and Carl. Center Darcy, Breanna, Derek and Kathy. Left Carol, Mitch, me, Corie and Spencah.
Spencah....such a sweet dog!! He has got some growing left to do, just look at those paws.
The Sunsets in Maine were beautiful. I enjoyed going down to sit by the dock almost everynight we were there and just watch the sunset on the lake. We often times take for granted enjoying sites like these. We are so busy in our lives, we overlook such a beautiful wonder.
They were all so beautiful, I had a hard time choosing which ones to share. Above are a few of my favorites.
Atlantic Ocean, city of Portland Maine. Mitch and I both agreed that if we ever decide to move, we would both like to live in Portland, Maine. A condo right on the Atlantic Ocean would be nice.
Mitch and I in Portland.
Mike holding Katie-Beth while she blows out one of Corie's candles on her birthday cake. She is a darling little girl and so, so smart!!!! She knows her colors and is already starting to count! Amazing!!!! I am sure she will be teaching me things in years to come!
Mike and Carl. Isn't he such a handsome boy? He warmed up to us towards the end of the week. He was like velcrow most days, sticking right to mom's hip!!
Ramona and Katie-Beth. Katie-Beth did not want uncle Mitch to take her picture. She is pointing at Mitch, undoubtly telling Mommy that uncle Mitch is trying to take her picture.
Mitch with our niece Breanna down on the dock. Breanna is quite the artist! She is wicked smaht!!
Beautiful Long Lake in Naples, Maine.
Rivah Queen leaving long lake heading for Brandy Pond and making a final journey through the locks at Songo Rivah.
Songo Rivah Queen's Journey though the locks.
Would not want this job. He manually cranks the bridge open.
Mitch helping at the locks. He is on the very right end in the hat.
Here comes the Rivah Queen.
In the locks.
Leaving the locks into Songo Rivah.
Mitch the Big Kid at the ice cream truck.
Katie-Beth enjoying her ice cream. She is still trying to avoid the camera, but I followed her around and got these shots. I think she liked playing the game with me!!
Mitch and Mike packing the van for the trip back to VA.
And lastly, a Chipmunk. We saw lots of these while we were in Maine.
