RI & ME Trip Report (finally)

No time to blog, so I will provide at least a quick Rhode Island and Maine trip report:

 Back from the East Coast (for almost two weeks now), and geared up for our next trip! We had SSSOOO much fun in Rhode Island and Maine! It was very relaxing, pampering, and fun! THANK YOU Dad and Beth and the J's for your amazing hospitality! We went to parks, pool, oceans, castle, zoo, lighthouse, tball games and watched the cousins have just an amazing time together! Many sleepovers, video games, tire swings, projects, reading, playing, and games. Many wonderful meals - yes, including twin lobsters, and several HUGE ice cream treats! Saw family, friends and old neighbors! One possible broken nose (fine now, but see picture), terrible flight experiences (with perfect kids - really), minor meltdowns, and no other mishaps to report! Fun, fun times! I have to say that the East Coast is really just a whole other world and I was really homesick for the ocean, greenery and colonial architecture.  Hot in Texas, and headed for the mountains of Colorado!
