We had the incredible opportunity to visit Maine this summer! Here are some highlights of our trip...
 |
| The 7+ hour car ride... |
The kids did great on the road trip there, minus one carsick moment from Andrew. They had lots of snacks, coloring books and road trip sign bingo game. Napping helped too!
We got to the cabin on Panther Pond and it was adorable!
 |
| Clear warm water! The dock out there was so much fun! |
The lake was so clear, up to 20+ feet. The girls had a blast swimming out to the dock and jumping off!
We visited the Maine Wildlife Sanctuary and happen to go on a Pow Wow day. It has been a long, long time since I've been to one of those ;)

| Pelts at the Pow Wow... they were pretty soft and gross at the same time. |
Moose in the Mud! We had to see a moose while in Maine, thankfully, it was behind a fence. I've heard they can be aggressive, and they are large.
Beach Babies! The cabin's main house had a lovely beach area and tons of sand toys. Girls spent hours playing in the sand and building castles and making sand pies.
 |
| Andrew loved being outside and liked the flag on the dock! |
In addition to swimming, Jarrett and I took turns with each of the girls in the canoes. I just love paddling with my sweeties! The lake is just so peaceful and serene, and hearing the Loons was lovely. Enjoying God's creation in the morning is the best!!

| Dock jumpin'! |
We did A LOT of hanging out at the beach...
The cabin owner gave us a large tub to fill with water and toys for Andrew to play in. He was in there for about 20 minutes before he discovered he could reach his hand over and get a handful of sand. Which went straight into his mouth. Yuck!!
The girls grew closer this summer, and enjoyed sharing a room in the cabin. When we got home after seven days together, they wanted to have sleepovers in each other's rooms for the next week!

We really enjoyed family dinners in the evening on the screened in front porch!
 |
| Taco.! |
There was no TV and spotty Wifi in our cabin, so we really unplugged and the kiddos had a blast playing. Here's our crew:
Andrew did fantastic out of his element, and was his easy-going self!

| He loves hats |
Bathtime in the sink!
