While Gabe was working hard the kids and I headed north to enjoy Summerfest in East Millinocket. Maybe listing what we didn't get to do during this 48 hours would be easier:) The kids decorated their bikes and rode in the kids parade the first evening which was followed by a magic show. Noah is at that age where he thought that the magician was the funniest thing ever, he was laughing so hard. The next morning the firemen filled the park with foam and Noah ran around and play in it... James preferred to watch and was pretty mad when it got on his feet, so Grampa carried him over to the hose to wash off. We spent the rest of the morning enjoying Smith Pond. The kids loved playing in the water and taking a canoe ride with Grammy Civiello. That evening Noah and James had their first experience with water guns..... there is a small chance that they enjoyed it;) This was followed by a campfire, s'mores and fireworks (we finally got to see some after the failed July 4th attempt). The next morning we were able to see the parade before heading home. Chief Brown called Noah & James and asked if they wanted to ride in the fire truck during the parade..... Noah was beyond thrilled and this ranks pretty high as one of this favorite summer events. I didn't get a great picture, but you get the idea. James on the other hand had no interest in that and was more than happy to collect all of the candy from a safe, quiet spot on the side of the road.
