Maine!

So a few weeks ago I was invited to go up to Maine to visit my cousin Cody, her parents, Aunt Patti and Uncle Bill and my sister for the long weekend.  All of our husbands (My Chris, Katie's Chris, and Cody's John) were all invited to go as well but for one reason or another weren't able to make it.  We stayed at John's parents lake house which was amazing!  They always end up having a bunch of reunions there, which it shows why!!!  It sleeps about 20!  and thats 20 sleeping in beds!  Well since there were only 5 of us, technically we all could have had our own rooms :)  Katie and I shared the girls room like old times, Cody slept in the angry teenager room, and UB and PT Patti slept in the room with the great view. 

It was a weekend spent with family, eating at home (except breakfast) and apple picking!

Aunt Patti makes the best grilled cheese and tomato soup! 

Not used to being the one in front of the camera Aunt Patti? :)


Next day after breakfast we went Apple Picking!!!

The best Apple Cider!  
Cute old time stove!








 We were excited!!!
