After taking a direct, red-eye from SLC to BOS, we drove to a cabin that Mariana found on Uber. Besides it being a hot and humid few days with no AC, it was awesome! Lots of swimming and delish food.

| Mariana, that party animal, brought this huge, awesome inflatable swan...which we still have to reimburse her for since Mario popped one of it's wings when he landed on it from the rope swing. |

Then we headed up to Maine. The first week was in a cabin called Snowbird Lodge. There was plenty of room for the grandparents, 6 (out of 7) kids, and their spouses and kids. It was a quick 5-minute walk to the lake. There we paddleboarded, kayaked, canoed, swam, found frogs, hunted for blueberries, and ate sand (Bela). It was fun to play games and reconnect! There were three 3-year olds, so Dulce was pretty happy. The whole time we were on vacation it was beautiful weather.
After the week in the cabin, we went to my parents house. Mario stayed for a couple days there, but then headed back to Utah (read:work). I was excited for him to see Maine in the summer because he had only ever been in the winter, and although that is beautiful, I much prefer it in all its summer glory.
I stayed another week with the kiddos and we enjoyed picking raspberries from the garden, taking walks, playing with Gretchen, going to the Children's Museum, and definitely eating ice cream and going to the beach. We also spent a few hours a few different days with Camille and her kids since they live pretty close to my parents. I got to see a few HS friends too which was really nice :)
