The Lightle's in Maine


We had an amazing weekend with our friends. We were so happy that Emily, John, Maddie and Katie could come spend the weekend in Maine with us. We spent alot of time at the beach, and the kids had a blast! Friday night they arrived and we headed over to the beach after dinner and then out for some ice cream. Saturday, Emily and I went out for a much needed pedicure and some relaxation in a downtown spa. The guys and kids stayed home and played in the pool and on the swingset since it was such a hot and humid day. When Emily and I arrived back from the spa we were all set to head down to the beach again, but a thunderstorm quickly moved in. So we put on a movie for the kids and sat out on the front porch relaxing with some drinks and we watched the storm. After the storm blew through, we headed down to the beach again. It was incredible, we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. It was low tide and we took an amazing walk down the entire length of the beach as the kids ran and played in the tidepools and looked for crabs. The sun was low in the sky and a soft breeze was blowing, it was a AMAZING sight. After our walk we headed back to the house for a lobsterbake. We tried the almond-butter Mussel recipie from the Fore street grille resturant and they came out AMAZING! After stuffing our faces, we put the kids to bed and settled in to laugh out loud to the movie Old School. It was such a fun weekend, but it went by way to quickly. The kids all play so well together, and Maddie and Katie are some of the cutest kids on the planet! Not one meltdown. We're looking forward to our next visit!
