New England Fall

 Fall has always been my favorite time of year.  Memories of soccer and football games and, of course, meeting my true love come flooding back as soon as the air turns crisp.  Maine adds a whole new, beautiful reason to love the season.  The leaves.  Oh, the leaves.

They slowly turn from green to bright yellow...

Reds & oranges start popping up...

And, before you know it, the world is a rainbow.

Maine also has tons of adorable covered bridges.  We have made it our mission to see all of them!

The trees here glow, people.  They glow.

Happenings

Another lesson learned...

If you ever find yourself without jar grippers while canning, do not, and I repeat, do not, attempt to use BBQ tongs as a replacement. 

Cute, fat baby

The best big brother ever.

Sisters! Love these two ladies!

Naughty little people after "fingerpainting"

This sweet lady waits for her daddy every day and then asks, "Jump with me?" He happily obliges...even in the rain. :) 

Grandma & Grandpa's Visit: Sebago Lake, the Drive In & Smiles

SEBAGO LAKE/ DRIVE-IN

We ended the week with a trip out to Sebago and watching Inside Out at the drive in.  Snuggling in blankets, cute little giggles, and fireflies dancing around us...it was the perfect way to wrap up our week of adventure.

SMILES!

Evy gave her grandma quite a few smiles to take on the road with her. :)

Grandma & Grandpa's Visit: Dance Class, Love Locks & Peaks Island

DANCE CLASS

Mia at her dance class.  Such a cutie pie!

LOVE LOCKS

Just like Paris, there are love locks in Portland, Maine.  You can read about them here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_lock

Ry and I locked one up inscribed with "the Enz clan"

PEAKS ISLAND

We caught the ferry out to Peaks Island and rented a golf cart to sightsee.  Peaks has the most beautiful houses I have ever seen... I tried to get pictures, but a screaming baby and a hubby with a lead foot thwarted my efforts.
