Happy Sunday

 

Riley is just so happy and fun. I know we are "first time parents" and a bit biased :) but really...just watching her jump and play and smile and laugh...it just doesn't get any better.

Nazarene Nap

 

This is usually the scene at our house after we come home from church and have lunch...precious :)

STATS

 

We took Riley for her 6 month appointment a couple of weeks ago, and happy to report she is happy and healthy! A whopping 14 1/2 pounds and 24 inches long. I am sure she will be getting chunkier and she is quite enjoying "real" food these days! She can put away a helping of sweet potatoes like no other! We love and miss all of you and thank you for your prayers for all of us:)

Maine: Whoopie Pies for all!!!

 

After visiting the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse we stopped at this wonderful diner called "Moody's". OH HOW DELICIOUS! We had fish and chips, and for dessert mom and I had the "Mainers" traditional Whoopie Pie. None of us had ever heard of such things till Lanna and family came to Maine. So, to honor our trip to Maine we tried the local faire...Mom wasn't too sure of them, but I thought they were great!

Maine: Pemequid Lighthouse

 

Wow! What a sight! The granite filled rocks were so striking not to mention the view of the Atlantic ocean. To learn more about this lighthouse visit Leanna's blog, www.themainestream.blogspot.com. I just remember what a fun time we had climbing all over the rocks, trying to figure out how to get the lighthouse keepers house to Hudson, CO, and noticing how weird the sun wasn't setting over the ocean like I'm used to!!

Maine: Boothbay Harbor

 

Boothbay Harbor was pretty fun. Like the true Pacific Northwesterners we are, we searched the whole town for a coffee shop that was open! Apparently not much goes on around there before Memorial Day. After we got our mocha/latte fix we headed down the boardwalk over the water. You could see all the lobstah (as they say it) boats and such. Notice the rare sighting of Leanna--in front of the camera!!!

Bedtime with Cousins

 

Riley loves her Cousins Xander and Caden

 

 

Bed time with Auntie Emmy and Riley is SUPER FUN!

 

Caden's cool bed tent...why sleep in an ordinary bed when you could have a bed with flair???
