Well, needless to say, I have alot to update! So, here goes, a day or two after my last post, my sister and I took the kids to the park. I like the park as it is free and the kids have a blast! Here is a slideshow of the park (as with most videos, if you mute it and let it play through the first time while browsing other things, and then when it's finished, you go back and watch it again, you can watch it without it stopping):
Next, my hubby and I just celebrated our 9 year wedding anniversary and my parents celebrated their 20th, both of us on June 27th. It was a very quiet day. Hubby got the morning off so we went to eat and did some shopping and then he went to work that night. After he went to work, my sister and I took the kids to meet up with my parents in boothbay for one of the windjammer days. We got to see a parade and then they had fireworks. The temperatures reached 97 that day, but being near the water helped ALOT! By the time the fireworks started (9pm), it was still hot, but we were all freezing (we watched them right on the water). Here is a video of the parade and the fireworks. It's kinda long, but there is video mixed in as well:
On Thursday, the 28th, we went to yet another park. We've been before but decided to go again. it's one of the kids favorite parks. So, here is a slideshow from there:
My sister and her hubby flew in from n.c. on Saturday. It's so nice to have them home. When they come home, they do lots of traveling as John's family is in Maine as well. We are trying to do things with both families so they don't have to travel so much, especially once the baby comes. Anyway, that being said, Sarah and John got to my mom's yesterday afternoon and brought John's brother and his wife and 2 kids with them. We had a great time and the kid's enjoyed each other. We all went to church on Sunday night as well. Bob and Cassie (John's brother and his wife) plan on moving closer to where we are and coming to church at our church in the future, so we are excited about that. We really got along well, and we hope to meet for some play dates on and off too. Here are a couple of videos that I took of the kids meeting "crazy daisy" and playing outside before company arrived. It was quit cold, so they only played with "crazy daisy" for about 10 min. I'm sure there will be many more though:
Today, we are planning on going to the races at Oxford Plains Speedaway. They are also having fireworks after the races, so we will be seeing those as well. It is going to be a long week, but a fun one. We have quit a few things planned while John and Sarah are home. Hopefully everything goes smoothly with no major problems. I hope to update during the week, but if not, look for a very long post with tons of pictures next monday! :)
Before I go, I wanted to post a picture of our new refrigerator. You know your getting old when a new fridge is very exciting to you. Anyway, we have been waiting two months for this as it has been on backorder, but it should be in by July 17th.
