Seadogs and Fishing

A few weeks ago there was a raffle at work and I bought a ticket and ended up winning tickets to see a Seadogs game. So, Thursday night we went to see a Seadogs game because it was Dominique's last day of school and they were having fireworks so we thought it was a perfect night to go. Dominique invited his friend Ben, so it was me, Frido, Ben and Dominique. The game was actually pretty good, I expected it to be a little dull but it wasn't. While we were there I saw some people from work that seemed to be just kinda hanging around like they were waiting for someone and then I noticed them go down and ask someone for their autograph so I figured it had to be someone famous. I later found out it was Theo Epstein? He's the GM of the Red Sox in case you are like me and didn't know. I snapped a photo of him, but by the time I focused my camera in on him, I only caught him walking out so you probably can't really tell who he is.
So, Friday we (Frido and I) both had the day off so we took all the kids fishing, including my nephew Austin. It was a really nice day. We went to Lake Auburn and each of the kids caught a fish. I took Olivia to a nearby playground (it only had a slide and swings, it was kind of cheesy so we didn't stay long) but anyways, she was antsy because she couldn't go in the water. She ended up playing with a wormy, poor thing she killed it, but she had a blast! Enjoy the pictures!

Memorial Day Weekend

For Memorial Day Weekend my husband and I took a much needed and much deserved vacation to York, ME. We left on Friday around noon and returned on Monday around noon. We bought a pop up camper a few months ago and decided to try it out-with NO KIDS! I love my children with all my heart but we were in desperate need of some alone time. The last time he and I went away together was for our 5th anniversary we went to NYC-that was 4 years ago! Anyways, we had a wonderfully relaxing time. We had his GPS (if you don't have one I highly recommend one!!) so we went alot more places than we normally would have. We went to Portsmouth, NH and walked the town there and then went on a 2.5 hour boat ride around the Harbor. There was a live band and they were actually pretty good. We also did sea kayaking which was alot of fun but after an hour and a half my back was hurting!!! I didn't get any pics of that because I didn't want to risk getting my camera wet. Dominique and Olivia stayed with my parents. Olivia was sick alot of the weekend and I think it started as a flu bug but turned in to homesickness. :( She has not been away from us for more than a 24 hour period since she was born and she will be two in July. On the way home we witnessed a camper on fire on the side of the road in the South bound lane on the turnpike. It was crazy! Luckily no one was hurt but I posted some of those pics as well. Hope everyone had as good of a weekend as I did!

Maine Wildlife Park

Today we went to the Maine Wildlife Park aka Gray Animal Farm. A friend of mine had planned a day there with a big group of people and asked us to go. We had a free pass and Rick Charette was going to be there, so my sister and her kids and me and my kids got there around 10 and stayed until around 1. Olivia had the most fun out of all of us. There was this moose at the Rick Charette concert that she was totally obsessed with. She kept running over to him and hugging him and saying "moose"...she also got bit by a goose! So, for my family who is reading this I guess the apple doesn't fall from the tree! Ha ha! Over all we had a really good time and the weather ended up being fairly nice considering it was supposed to rain and be cloudy. That's all I've got.

St Joes-Rock Climbing and Swimming

Two weekends ago, we went with the church to St. Joe's in Standish and went rock climbing and swimming. Dominique didn't do the rock climbing but I did and so did Dani. It was really fun! Dominique and Olivia both went swimming (so did I), I didn't get to see much of Dominique in the pool because I had to swim with Olivia but they both really enjoyed it. After the swimming and rock climbing we had a devotional (that's where Brett is petting Olivia's head). It was a really good day and I'm glad we went. That's all for now.
