Fourth of July

We had a great weekend celebrating the fourth. Our good friend Christy and her two girls came to visit for four days and we painted the state red! They arrived Thursday afternoon and we picked strawberries from the garden as a snack. What a treat! On the fourth we made a flag cake, went to LLBean to participate in kid weekend and all the games and fun - face painting, firework painting and more. We then spent the afternoon at Rusty's family camp swimming and having a BBQ. We topped off the night with fireworks back in Freeport. Saturday we went to Pemiquid Point and played on the rocks before heading over to Round Pound for a yummy lobster dinner on the deck. The kids got to play with sea creatures while the adults relaxed with a glass of wine and good company.

We went to the beach the next morning and in the afternoon picked strawberries from a bigger berry patch. Enough to freeze 12 pounds and make freezer jelly for this winter. It was such a treat to spend time with the Endrud's and we are hoping the next time they make the trek, Nik will also be with them! Click here to see all the pictures.

Below is a video of MK crawling through the grass making a break for it. Happy July! Our next post will be of the big one year birthday!
