This crazy bunch made the trek from Boston to Maine in a mammoth SUV with three rows of seating and even two video screens for the DVD player! The overnight in Augusta helped a lot and made the drive more enjoyable. Spider Lake is a beautiful spot, well worth the effort to get here. The first night we celebrated John's birthday with some yummy cake. The kids had the job of covering the cake with M&M's - a job they were more than willing to help with :)
Enjoying the water - so refreshing! Carson showed Shivani how he loves to throw rocks in the water, the bigger the splash the better!
Rainy day activities - building things with Grampy, making 'pets' out of beads, playing cards.

| Afternoon relax time. |
Enjoying the grandparents.
Campfire time! Rachel had to pick her favorite activity of the summer for her second grade 'get to know me' worksheet. She picked roasting marshmallows.

| Carson made a feeding spot for the dogs. |
We spent more time in the kayak this year once we discovered that an adult and a child could fit in it together. Grampy took us for some rides in the motorboat to see the bald eagle on the island across the lake.

Rachel and Shivani enjoyed some fishing right off the dock. When Shivani's rod was baited and first put into the water her comment was, "I caught a worm!". Rachel caught several small chubs right off the dock, much to her delight.
