All Settled

Wow.  A lot of effort and we are now able to relax.  Over the last two weeks we have been packing and meandering our way over to the new/old house.  This gradual moving technique truly paid off.  Most boxes were unpacked before big pieces arrived, which made the actual move day a lot less overwhelming.  Despite all the chaos involved with a move we have managed to play and enjoy summer.  A trip to my sisters house on the Cape was a much needed break the weekend before we switched houses.  She has the most stunning swimming pond at the end of her street!  Cullen had his first attempt at a swim, his first accent up stairs unassisted and his first playdate with another of his own kind!
Ethan has been able to continue weekly baseball lessons with his coach (Bowdoin College pitching coach).  He looks forward to that one hour every week!  The new yard has also been set up to resemble a baseball training facility...
Kids head off to "Gammy/Gampy" camp next week.  Not sure what I will do with myself...

This was across the street from Ethan's ball practice.

Figured I would take a walk while they played.

With coach.

Not exactly Carnegie Hall...

We tried to make her virtual awards night as special as possible.

Bike ride with my boy.

Ethan took this shot.

Fiona's night time doodle.

Theo, with attitude.

Still working from the box of sparklers I bought last year!

What?  Who are those young folks?
Yup.  That's our senior prom photo.

All cozy at aunties.

Look at this water!  Warm too!

Photo bombed by Uncle Jason.

Accidental photo bomb by Auntie.

This lovely storm just added a few minutes to our ride home.

Cullen all excited to get to the new house.

Hard to believe we were in this space for two years.

Ethan thinks he's going to take over my chore.

I've been wanting a clothes line FOREVER!

First cooked meal in new place!

This is along the front yard fence.

Getting there...

This is our new beach.

Great place for swimming or skipping rocks.

Best smell ever.

A whole wall of high bush blueberries in the back yard!

Pick.  Bake.  Eat.
