The Weekend Report

Nothing like a WILD Friday night! I sent this pic to Marisa because she was headed to the big city and I was headed for COMFY :) 

Even Barks knew it was a snuggle in kinda Friday night. Course he had also played with Rangeley for about 30 minutes and nothing like a puppy playdate

Miss B had a friend over and they jumped right into the fort Minnie had made the day before.

My view before an early bedtime for me... :)

but not before some snuggles with Minnie :) She wanted the TV with me and I fell asleep. Whoopsie :)

We headed out after Husband made the crew pancakes... to the apple "festival". And they got whoopie pies :) 

It was WAY smaller this year than in years past but we were happy to be BACK!

It was a GORGEOUS Saturday, we chatted with LOTS of friends and even met a new one! Minnie and Miss B's 5th grade teacher's daughter!!! Doesn't she look THRILLED!?!? :) 

After the apple fest... we DID go PICK apples... Minnie LOVES apple pie and ALWAYS has a hankering :) Miss B was happy to be hanging with her bud!

We hiked to the top again even though I'm pretty sure it was roped off.... but the view really is the best

Love them.

And handy having Ally with is... built in family photographer! :)

Minimal pics (ok NONE) from apple picking on but we did have our annual block party but Ray and Heather didn't make it and Eric came late because of a wind storm the night before... but we had Brad and the kids, Marisa was out of town, and then Courtney and her boyfriend came :) Miss B had gone to Ally's soccer game so her parents came to drop off and stayed for some of the campfire :) It was a fun crew. 

Sunday AM we had decided we needed a family re-set day. The four of us needed to connect. The weeks are so busy, there have been some challenges and teachable moments that we needed to follow-up on, and things that just NEEDED to happen but we haven't had the time to do.... we did MC's game... Freeport.... Portland... and rolled home around 2:30 to just HANG....and I got flowers from TJ's :) 

and some from my garden :) STILL!

bedtime snuggles with THIS one to finish up the weekend.... just what my Mama heart needed....
