Wow, it has been a while! I try not to let things go this long, but we have had some frustrating internet problems that, I hope, are now worked out:) At the beginning of April vacation week Ben had an appointment south, so we decided to take the family and have a fun day visiting "our old home in the city" as our kids refer to Portland. We started at Mackworth Island which wasn't super warm, but it was low tide so we were able to do some exploring while getting exercise and having lunch at the pet cemetery. Our next stop was Willard Beach where all three boys put their feet in the water! James threw a stick out a little too far into the ocean, then proceeded to try and ask each dog that ran by to swim out and get it for him:) Audrey LOVED the sand and happily crawled around at the playground... maybe we will be able to take her to the beach this summer. When Ben was this age we couldn't stop him from continually eating the sand, so beach going wasn't super pleasant. Overall it was just a really great family day exploring nature!
