Maine

Once we were 4.  We had 2 children, and one on the way.

We left Anna and Josh with grand-parents.  And I carried Emma on the inside.  We were celebrating 5 years of marriage.  And thought it a good opportunity to get away and explore.

We walked the streets of Boston by the hour.  And then we drove into Maine and hiked all over.  I was SO tired, but played my game-face well and kept up with our busy pace.

We stayed at a beautiful inn and ate great food.  And we enjoyed the scenery.

And we woke up in the mornings and stood amazed at creation.

And in the evenings, we went out on the water and were…speechless.

I want to go back to Maine.

To see the boats coming in.

Full of lobster.  (Not that I like lobster, but the process of lobstering is very interesting).

To watch the sun rise and set in a crispness that is only found in the North. 

I want to walk those trails again.

But now we are six.  So, first we need to find a baby-sitter…

…with lots and lots of available energy.

    Well, I don’t have lots and lots of energy, but I do have enough – if you do the cooking!

    Sounds like fun! I am a full-time nanny and I would loooove to help you out! Too bad I don’t know where you’re located :/ It sounds like you have a lot of good memories–and many more soon to be made :)
