Horse Swing!

Phineas got a horse swing for his birthday. Here are some pictures of him testing it out.

Memorial Day Weekend

Over Memorial Day Weekend we were able to visit with lots of family in Brooklin and Sedgwick. It was a beautiful, warm day so we went down to the beach. While the cousins were having a blast gathering slimy and pinching sea creatures from under the seaweed, Phineas much preferred walking along the shore and climbing on the rocks.

Mother's Day 2014

It was a beautiful Mother's Day this year so we went to our old stomping ground - Spruce Mountain - for a hike and then went to Mom's favorite ice cream place, John's Ice Cream in Liberty.  It was a fun afternoon!

Easter 2014

Here are some pictures of Phineas' Easter egg hunt this year.  He was so excited he was up at 6 am!

  

Weekend play

Here is a video of Phineas doing his thing on a weekend morning.

Spruce Mountain in February

Oma and Aunt Julie came up for a quick visit last weekend.  Saturday was a wonderful warm February day, with sunny skies and temperatures in the low 40s.  We decided to head up to one of Phineas's favorite places - Spruce Mountain - for a winter hike.  It was a lot of fun!

Beech Hill (again!)

It was a warm February first so we decided to go for a quick hike up Beech Hill in Rockport.  It's not the first time we've been there, and it's always a fun hike because it's short, easy, and has beautiful views from the top.  Of course, like usual, Phineas likes to pretend we're all brush rigs (off road fire trucks)--this trip became even more exciting when he spotted smoke coming from the woods to the west!

Cookies

Here's Phineas, "helping" Mom make cookies.  Juno is trying to "help," too.

Baking Christmas cookies

Phineas and Mom baked some sugar cookies on Sunday.  And, of course, Juno didn't want to miss out on the fun!

Brushing Teeth

Fun with Leaves

Playing with Juno at the beach

We've been taking Juno down to a local beach now that it's fall and she can run around off leash.  She loves playing in the water and Phineas like to throw rocks and run around with her.

Hiking Mount Megunticook

Earlier today we hiked up Mount Megunticook, which is one of the mountains located inside Camden Hills State Park.  It was a beautiful warm fall day and even though the leaves were past-peak there were still impressive colors to enjoy.  

Phineas at the trail head.

Three-fourths of the hiking crew, two of us were always playing catch-up to the person with Juno.

We stopped for a snack at the top.  Here are Mom and Phin smiling and having fun!

Taking a rest break.
