Our Week in Maine - Overview

My parents, Cyn & Yannick, and Kevin & I all rented a house in Maine on the Ocean for the week. We had good Weather and lots of fun. Here are a few pictures. They are mixed up, and not really in order.


Here is the house we were staying in from the back. It was a beautiful brand new house.


This was our view from the front of the house (from the balcony). We were right on the water. There was a beautiful rock beach.

We ate lots of great food over the week. Here Chloe was showing off the happy face pancakes that Uncle Yannick made for her.





All the above pictures were taken at Echo lake, a fresh water beach in Acadia National park. Yannick and Kevin got really creative with their sand castles. The kids loved them.

The 3 cooks for most of the week. Here they were getting ready to steam lobsters for a homemade surf and turf.

This was the final product, and it was delicious.

The above are taken in Bar Harbour a nice touristic town. We spent the afternoon there shopping, and finished off the day at the playground with the kids, because they were so good and let us shop all afternoon.

We went to the beach and Chloe wanted us to bury her completely in sand. She found it hilarious.



We made a fire down by the water one evening and cooked grilled cheese for supper on it. They were delicious. Here the kids were enjoying the fire.

Jayden wanted to do like Chloe, except he didn't understand not to move his arms.

We went to sand beach, a saltwater beach in Acadia park, and it was one of the most beautiful beaches I had ever seen. We went for a walk and at the end, there was a big wall of rocks. I didn't know but Jayden loves to climb and he is good at it also. He made it all the way to the top on his own, and it was quite high (Kevin stood behind him to make sure he didn't fall)







Enjoying our own beach one night before supper. It was a little cooler that evening. So the kids needed warmer clothes. It didn't really matter though, because both boys were soaked when they were done.
