Boston/Maine Excursion

This past weekend we left to got check out Boston and then up to Maine to visit my aunt who I hadn't seen in over 10 years! It was great getting to see her and meet her husband. We had such a fun time visiting it was like we had just hung out with them or something. Anyways.. Here are some pics from our trip. Drew and I left on Friday because we wanted to stay a night in Boston. We met my parents in Maine the next day. These first pics are of a house we stopped out by Drews fav. architech... crud I can't remember his name. Its a pimp house! This is the front door... Nothing to write home about right?? But then you go to the back and its all glass like this. Its even more cool because it sits on this hill that over looks water. There are lighthouses and everything. I tried to get a pic but it was weird cause of the hill.Heres the other half of the house.This is the AWESOME deli we stopped at! WOW! was it good! Plus I just think Saige and daddy look too cute! Here I am being sweet. Drew wanted the dock?? in the background. I hate alone pics. Saige climbing up the anchor. That girl has no fear.Saige climbed into bed with us at 6 am and kicked me out. This is what I got up to find. Aren't they soo cute!!!Here we're already in Maine and on our way to check out the beach. Drew didn't get a pic but Noah was sitting next to Saige sleeping the same way. Saige has a thing with copying us. Poor poppy kept getting dragged back into the freezing ice water. Saige loved it and wouldn't let him stop.This pic is to show how cold the water is. Check out Jareds face. hahaSo cute.Our whole fam. Thats my aunt in the green. Its my dads sister. Can you tell?? My fam. I'm a lucky lady!The Christian bunch!3 generations....We went to see a lighthouse while we were in Maine. As you can tell it was the next day cause it wasn't sunny anymore :( this weater made for one sweet pic though. The cool fish tank at the l.l bean store.Saige climbed into every tent and pretended she was sleeping. Shes so silly.Dancing Queen!!! Saige loves to dance and loves the attention she gets while doing it!The day we left. Thats my aunt and her husband holding Saige. Funny story about these next pics.... So on our way home we made a detour to check out another house Drew really wanted to see. This house is called the glass house. The entire thing is glass. That brick cylinder is the bathroom. Anyways... we get there and this maintance guy is at the front gate. He tells us sorry the last tour was at 4. You couldn't see the house from the street. It was down a hill and like in the woods. Drew begged him to just let him run down and take some pics but the guy was a jack a and wouldn't let him go. So a disappointed Drew drove away. As you can tell he did get to see it... haha I convinced him to turn around and go back. The maintance guy was gone so I drove and he jumped out and ran down the hill to see the house we drove out of the way to see. Haha we were cracking up the whole time thinking we're being illegal! there wasn't any signs saying you weren't allowed to go see it so what the heck! The guy, I swear, was on a power trip. So here are the pics we had to sneak to get..


The furniture was designed just for this house.It is just a tiny square theres no seperate rooms or anything. He wanted it to feel like he was really living out in nature.This is the one side of the bathroom cylinder.Here is the tiny bathroom. How'd you like to live here...And that ended our adventure! What an ending huh! :)
