Pumpkin Fest Weekend in Maine

I'm a Rock Star!

First fun activity of the weekend was apple picking at our favorite orchard
























watching them make cider











Next was on to Damariscotta for the street fair and the parade





















We solved the mystery of Ayla's missing frog...

We found Aunt Linda waiting for the parade


Classic Grandpa yawning....

and now he's looking at his watch







running to get pumpkins






a serious game of Connect Four

went to cottage to have dinner with the Kelsey cousins





a little early morning art


more Connect Four



met up with a college friend and his family - this is Alex and Maia

Our friend Jason



went down to see the pumpkin boats




I don't even know what to say about this one!!!!


more face painting!








a tired Norah Bean




while Norah was snoozing, we walked down to the shore



Ayla insisted on wearing her boots on the wrong feet

a little meditation before dinner...

Pumpkin Drop time!!!!




















after the drop we stopped at our favorite farm stand





and then on to Pemaquid Point to do some exploring by the lighthouse






hmmmm....now where are the children???










and no trip to Maine would be complete without a stop at Cabela's on the way home
