On June 30th we had the privilege of attending Carrie and Justin's wedding

 It was a great family gathering at a beautiful carriage house.

Everyone standing on their best behavior!

Then it was time to return to Maine to prepare for Jason, Melissa, Jack and Maggie's visit.

A few days to clean and take Little Buddy to the hair dressers

We rented a 7 passenger van so we could all ride together and picked JMJM up at the Rochester Airport on July 13th to visit with the NY families.

Maggie was helping to blow up a small pool to cool off in at Matt and Jeanine's home where we stayed.

Melissa with Great Grandma holding Jack's hand.  Great Grandma has been waiting a long time to see this family.  

The cuckoo clock at G&G's home was a big hit.
This was a 4 generation gathering.

Everyone was wondering what was for dessert!

Jim and Anna settling in after their wedding.

We had a huge party at Chris and Amy's new home on the Redman Rd in Brockport, but my camera died. I felt so bad about this because just about everyone was there and we had lots of fun.  

Then a trip back to Maine 

Becca and Richie hosted a birthday party for Jack(4), 4-wheel, and pond party.

The day was hot and sunny so we enjoyed every second of the outdoor activities. 

Not a bad way to relax

Maggie is in control

Jack is prepared for whatever is about to happen!

Storyland

Storyland
Each year the Newry Mother's  Club use to take the Newry children to Storyland as soon a summer vacation started.   Jason, Becca and Lavena grew up enjoying this trip each year.   As a bit of nostalgia they all wanted to go together with the kids.

The next day JMJM went to Santa's Village with some friends.

Becca and Richie invited me to hike Table Rock with them.  

Estella is 5 and Brenna is 4 and they hiked about 2 1/2 miles up to Table Rock and back down.  We had a PBJ sandwich along with many treats.
It was a beautiful day with an awesome view at the top.  These are some shots along the journey.

Becca is so happy with how her new hips work so well, and she is able to do things that she hasn't been able to do for a long time.   Thanks to the good Lord leading her to Dr. Babkin

Huge boulders creating caves as you get near the top.

Looking up through the boulders to the sun

This is a thru hiker named Wired.  We are not sure why he has that name, but he is traveling from Baxter south on the AT.
