Well for once it hasn't been a long time since I posted. We've had a busy week so there's plenty to share. Last weekend was Easter so there's plenty of pictures from that, and this week was Brooke's April Vacation. I was lucky enough to get a couple days off so we tried to squeeze in a little fun and fortunately got two nice days for that. Monday we all went up to the Maine Wildlife Park in Gray to see the, what else, wildlife. They have quite a few animals there, and while not quite as nice as the Squam Lakes one, they do have three moose!! After that we visited the kids favorite store, LL Bean, and then headed up the coast to Rockland so Ashley could nap before a quick dinner and a sunset hike in the Beech Hill Preserve. Today I had another day off and Brooke wanted to go to Boston, so we all headed down there to climb the Bunker Hill Tower and visit the USS Constitution and another WWII battleship that is now part of the park there. It was a windy but beautiful spring day and the kids had lots of fun with that. They both breezed up the 294 spiral steps of the monument, so all the hiking was finally put to some good use. There's a few other pictures in there from a hike Brooke and I went on up in South Berwick last Saturday afternoon too. Other than that not much is going on. The kids are all getting over the latest rounds of colds and bugs and seem to all be on the mend and in great shape just in time for Jen and I to go away for the weekend. Our Christmas present this year was a spring getaway to Bar Harbor to get the pre-season rates on a nice hotel and dinner. The weather looks so-so but I'm sure we'll make the best of it and and should have some pictures to share when we get back. We haven't been away without the kids in a couple years so we're sad to be leaving them for the weekend but have had a great week with them and are both (but especially Jen I think) looking forward to a couple days with just the two of us.
So that's all for now. To see the latest large batch of pictures you can click right here.
