Portland Maine

Good News!!!! My Dad got a job offer! The bad news.....it's in Georgia. He has to report to work by October 1st. Right now we aren't sure if my mom and brothers are going to go down with him right away or if they are going to wait until the school year is over. Where does Maine fit into all of this you ask? My dad applied for this job in Maine. (which is only about an 1 1/2 drive as apposed to 1 1/2 day drive to Georgia...which would mean they would be closer to us) ...so he applied for this job in Maine but found that this company had their eye on this other candidate for I guess a few years now, so my dad wanted to talk with them to see if they would change their minds. I guess no such luck. So they are moving to Georgia. It will be hard having them so far away. Especially since they are my only "blood' family out here. I am sure there will be many trips to visit them. But even though my Dad didn't have any luck with the company we had a great time this past Friday at the beach in Maine.


While Dad was in the interview I found this really awesome park that had this water play area I guess you could call it. The boys loved it. It must of been on some sort of timer because water would spray out from various holes in the ground at different time. We had so much fun.

My sister and brother in law are in town. They also came to Maine.


You can see the light house...in the middle of the picture.



A closer view of the light house....not the prettiest one I have seen but it's the closet one to where we were. This picture was taken on a trail to the lighthouse....it would have been a great running trail. Rich and I will have to come here for a date, it was so beautiful.

Playing on in the sand on the beach.





Cameron taking a nap on uncle Abe


Grandpa and Aidan at the light house



Family pic by the light house...it was pretty windy, but very nice. Abe was taking the picture and Rich wasn't there...he was at work. I missed him so much and wished he could have been there. The kids just loved it.



This was on the way back from the light house. Jumping all of these rocks was so much fun and brought the kid out of me again....well if I didn't have one of the boys in my arms...I seem to be very cautious with them. So Aidan loved going with uncle Abe...the would jump over the cracks like it was nothing. It was pretty cool how they set up the rocks...it was like this all the way to the lighthouse and all the way around the lighthouse.





Mom and Dad. Dad was pretending he was going to jump. His facial expression was priceless. I definitely want to go back this season with Rich. We had so much fun and the kids really enjoyed it. Did I mention we had a good time???? hehe

Cameron's 1st Birthday!

So these pictures are all backwards...I can never seem to remember how to upload the pictures so they are all in order....I think I know how, and then they show up on my blog backwards. Anyone know how to do it? Well these are a little late getting posted but here are some pictures from Cameron's Birthday. We had so much fun, and I can't believe he is one! He wanted to grab the flame.


I made this shirt for him. Way to cute!


I had issues with the "E" on his name. But didn't have the time or extra letters to correct it.



I make a soccer ball for the cake, it was so much fun to do.

Cameron is one!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CAMERON!

Crusin' Cameron!

Cameron has really taken off on walking. He hardly crawls now because he loves walking so much. This video is a little long, but so worth it, because he is so darn cute.

Aidan's swimming lesson's

These pictures are a little backwards so you can scroll to the end of the post and work you way up it you want. Aidan started swimming lessons this week. He doesn't know what to think about it. He is very shy when it comes to kids his age. But he braved it and got in the water. The first day he did fine, but the second day he was like talking to a wall. The instructors would try to talk to him, but he would just turn his head. We'll see how today goes. Anyways below are pictures of the first day!


Making a train int the water!

Waiting for his turn. The instructor would take one out at a time and have them kick and move their arms. Aidan would just lay there. I am not sure what he thought. I thought he was having a good time, but when I asked if he had fun, he said no.

His instructor is taking him for a swim.


Getting used to the water in the kiddy pool. The of the instructors are trying to talk him into sitting in the water. Not happening.

Fun Filled Week!

We did a lot last week, and enjoyed every minute of it!

We went to the mall to have lunch and play. He just loved those rides you put quarters in. He went on every single one of them. So spoiled!


We went to the movies....sorry bad picture...it was pitch black in the theater when we took it.



We went swimming at the town pool a couple time that week. The kids had so much fun and so did I.


Enjoying a snack!



Grandma came with us once. Here she is playing with Cameron!



You can't tell very well but Aidan is running through water that is shooting straight up in front of him. I love his face!



We went to a bbq at uncle Jim's to cook the Bacon bomb the right way. ( in the smoker) it was yummy!


Aidan playing with his cousin Draven. They were so cute together!



And lastly we set up this cars tent Aidan got for his birthday. They loved it!
