Family Reunion

William and Me

Well my last day of work went well. The kids were good and that helped the day go by. Triston made me the cutest card and i laughed so hard!!! In the afternoon i took just William and Triston outside to play for a bit. It was fun and i'm going to miss them!!
My parents and Nate picked me up from work and we headed to Bar Harbor. We stayed in this dumpy motel and we had the biggest thunder and lightning storm that we have seen all summer!!! The lightning was amazing!!! Saturday we went to Auntie Jo and Uncle Gary's place on the ocean for a little family reunion. We were celebrating Nanny and Gramp's 60th wedding anniversary!! Me and Nate went digging in the seaweed and found some crabs. One kept chasing after my leg!!!! We bought 60 lbs of lobstah and had a lobstah feed for lunch and they were sooo good!!!! I ate one and then me and Lynn sat and picked the leftover lobstahs. It took forever and we smelt so bad afterwards!!! We kept smelling our hands all afternoon. My hands got a little slippery and towards the end I cut myself on the shell. Right down my palm!! After we cleaned up we cut the cake and had homeade ice cream!!! YUMMY!!!!

My bracelet

Well yesterday at day care me and some of the girls made bracelets. This was my first attempt so its not as good as some of you crafty people out there but i was impressed!!!! I just wish i had more to go with colors i chose!!! O well its not like i ever cared about that before!!

Today me and Nate took Arancha down to Manchester to catch her flight. We got there a little early so i had to sit in the parking lot for a little over an hour. I was sooo bored!!! There is only so much you can do in a car on a hot afternoon. Finally i picked Nate up and we headed to Standish to hear the girls sing. Unfortunately we missed our turn off and our road ended and we were on the beach!!!! So we finally got heading into the right direction and there were 2 accidents on the way. We saw the first one and the 2nd one had just happened. Ended up right in the middle of the highway!!! I don't think anyone was seriously hurt in either one though. We were only like 30 min. late but they were still singing and it was soo good to see them!!!! Unfortunatley we didn't get to stay for long. The girls had tried lobstah this afternoon and i was telling them of my pregnant lobstah experience last summer and Marla thought she was going to be sick cause she realized that hers had been pregnant as well. She thought the little red things were just part of lobstahs and didn't know they were eggs!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! It was wicked funny!!! I told them that they all needed to try some Moxie since they were in Maine and they said that they were going to pick one up when they headed out tomorrow!! Hope they enjoy it!!!!

Me all dressed up!!

Company Picnic!!

Well the company picnic went very well. We were suppose to have thundershowers, but it was hot and sunny all morning. The crafts went very well and everyone had a great time. By the time we made it down on the beach with all of the games we didnt' have much time though cause the clouds were rolling in. Since most of the kids had gotten into the water already not many wanted to get out and play so we only had 6, but it was still fun!! It started raining at the end during the quarter find. Its the kids favorite game so we finished it, but then everyone left and we had to clean everything up in the rain. Course it stopped when we made it back to the house!! Afterwards i went to see Ellie and Vance one more time. They had a cookout and volleyball. It was a lot of fun and the most exercise most of us have seen in weeks!!! On my way home i had this cop following me for like 10 min then he pulled me over. I couldn't figure out what for so i waited. He said my plates are suspended and asked me if i knew why. Well i didn't and neither did he. He said that they normally take you to jail and have your car towed since it is a class e felony but i explained the situation to him about it being my brother's car and he is in afghanistan. He said i would have to go to court for it in October and if i didn't show then they would put out a warrant for me. I then told him that i would be at college and that its in TN and he was like well that would cost you more than its worth so i'll let you go but dont' drive it again until monday when you can call the dmv. So here i am sitting at home waiting for my parents to get back from camp. Should be here soon!! Arancha is here till Tuesday so we'll be doing some things with her. I'm so glad to have Nate back!!!! Well i guess this is all for now!! Hope you all have a wicked good week!!!
