Haappy Halloween

This weekend the Silver Lake Express took us on a scary ride. The train tracks are lined with creepy characters and chilling scenes. It was the third annual Ghost Train event and we are lucky enough to live next door. Here are a few pictures from the scary ride.

Kadin meets her Mimi

We were absolutely thrilled this weekend to welcome Kim to NH. She definitely chose a great weekend. The foliage was top notch and the weather cooperated. We tried to fit as much entertainment as possible in to the weekend. Ben and Kim went hiking and apple picking on Friday and then we all went to the Fryeburg Fair on Saturday. The weekend continued with a trip to camp and another hike on Sunday and then a trip to North Conway for a hike and the best lobster roll ever on Monday.
Highlights from the fair: the animals, the food, and the races where uncle Blaine wins the trifecta.

Montreal = New Eyes

We had a great trip to Montreal this weekend. Ben had corrective eye surgery and it went very well. He is very happy with the results and the picture below is the only shot I took of Ben without glasses or eye shields. . . yes he is on the pot.
Kadin made the trip to the big city as well and it was fun to have her with us.

Fall is in the air

The blaze orange is out, the robes are on and the apples are sweet. The Gordons came for a visit this weekend and Kadin is finally worn out. Kadin and Hogan played constantly for a day and half and now she is napping away the afternoon. Ben is in New York for over a week so it was great to have some help exercising the puppy this weekend.

Chris buried some beans and dinner was server 24 hours later. I think he made about 10 lbs of beans so we have been eating beans for days. They were delicious but beans and Ben have never been the greatest combination.
I made an angel food cake which as you can see it was a bit of a disaster.
Kadin made a new friend. She was great with Gaven and he loved playing with her.


Kadin's dream came true. . . Megan let her chase the sheep. They weren't that in to her. I think the sheep got all the exercise they ever wanted. Mikey was foaming at the mouth.



A few more pictures from the Jolly's beautiful spot. Thanks for a great weekend!

And now a picture from this morning. . . Kadin what are you doing??
