Fun Weekend!

We had a busy, but fun, weekend! We got up bright & early Saturday morning to go to the Common Ground Fair. We had never been to the agricultural fair before but had always wanted to. Well, when our friend, Jason, scored us some free tickets to get in we figured there couldn't be a better time! Thanks Jason!

Now, you know you're in "no man's land" when you see a sign like this...

Here we are at the fair. The balloons kept covering the girls' faces, so this is as good as it gets!

Here are Jason & Rebecca...

Maya & Suri were very excited to see the bunnies!

And Maya tried climbing in with the sheep...

There were so many people there that it literally took us a good hour + to get out of the parking lot. Maya & Suri were both extremely tired, so it felt like an eternity with them screaming in their carseats. Of course, once we were moving they fell asleep-for awhile at least.

Sunday morning, we were up even earlier! We had to pick up Rebecca & Jason no later than 7:30 to head to Bangor for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. Rebecca's mother, Carolyn is a breast cancer survivor so we were walking in her honor.

Me being me, I asked Rebecca if we could take a detour to drive by Stephen King's house-ha ha! I had been by once before, but what the heck, right?! Here it is...

We went to the Survivor's Celebration at 9:00. Maya & Suri started out in the stroller.

But quickly decided they wanted to show their support by walking! Maya walked the entire 1 K! Pretty good for such a little girl! The kid could walk forever, I swear!

Here is a picture of Mommy & The Girls at the beginning of the race.

And here are Maya & Suri immediately following the finish line

After the race, we headed over to Rebecca's parent's house. They made us a fabulous meal and spoiled the girls (as witnessed in this picture)

Here is a picture of Maya giving Mommy kisses...

Then, off to the Apple Orchard!

Suri slept on the way so wanted to be carried.

And here we are in front of the pumpkins.

Then we went on a hayride

Here is Maya sitting on a pumpkin...

And Suri sitting on a pumpkin (notice how they are both chewing on the apple bag??!!)

And here is Maya running through the pumpkin patch...

Holding hands in the pumpkin patch...

And now for a tearjerker. This is Maya picking her apple this year...

And LAST YEAR ...

Suri picking her apple this year...

And LAST YEAR...

I can't believe how much they have grown...and to think they will be 2 years old in less than 3 months. Where did the time go?

Here they are in the wagon eating their apples (they took a bite out of a good many of them)...

And here is my husband playing "baseball" with Jason at the orchard...
