Summer

We have been having a wonderful summer. We spent a week in NH visiting at Squam with my two camp friends and their children-six kids under five in one house. Sound exhausting? It was actually great! The kids all got along really well and played nicely and gave the adults some time to visit. We went to a great little farm in Tamworth one morning where we saw pigs, cows and baby goats (more kids! )...We also hiked Rattlesnake Mountain....Connor rode on my back and Ella hiked the whole thing (2 miles roundtrip)-we all enjoyed the wonderful view at the top! We also took a boat ride on a friends' party boat. The kids each had a chance to drive which they thought was perfect!My favorite outing we had was to the Science Center which I always enjoy. Nice trails and neat animal exhibits. Justin and I took our kids into Meredith at one point and had ice cream at Town Docks.Very pretty view and the kids loved playing in the sand. All in all we had a great time.

After NH, we headed to Vermont to our cabin with friends from home. Ella, Connor and our friends' two girls had a great time roasting marshmallows and playing outside. Ella went with Dada out in the kayak and we met more friends from home at Fire an dIce ( a fave for us in Middlebury.


Since we have been home we have been making the most of summer...spending Wednesdays at Grandpa's, going to the beach, park or pool most afternoons. Tomorrow we are headed to our favorite farm to blueberry pick and picnic with Ella's friend from school.

I will try and upload pictures, but I may have to do it in a seperate post since sometimes lately the pictures won't upload! And sorry about the iphone pictures, our camera is acting up...I guess it's better than nothing!
