Griff and I took a little roadtrip up to Maine to hang out with Grandma and Grandpa; Dad had to stay the weekend in Calgary (boo, but he got to go to the Stampede, so it wasn't all bad). We had dinner at Chowderheads, where Griff gobbled up his first fish and chips, and we also spent an almost perfect morning at Ferry Beach (It was high tide, the water was totally flat, it was sunny and beautiful, but it was greenhead season so we didn't last long). Griff played in the sand and there were a ton of periwinkles int he water. The time that Griff gets to spend 1 on 1 with Gma and Gpa is so precious.. he loves it.
The Hendrix Family had a great weekend. We went up to Maine for a quick visit to see Grandma, Grandpa, and Unkie Bri. Some highlights: Griff sported his crab shorts, Griffin's new and totally awesome moose onsie courtesy of Unkie Bri and "Hot Jaime", adding "Hot" to "Jaime" to differentiate her from "Work Jaime", family walk through Hinckley Park in South Portland, delicious BBQ dinner, a fun date with Tom (How cool are we!? We intended to play some pool and go out for drinks, but ended up buying $6 worth of treasures at the Dollar Tree, among them 2 bouncy balls for Griff as well as a pack of "grow-a-sea-creature" expandable capsules, and then we found ourselves at Chuck E Cheese where we had a ridiculously awesome time playing arcade/carnival games. $30 later, which bought us 150 tokens=150 games, Tom scored an all-time of 630,000 points in Skeeball winning him the 70 ticket jackpot, and together we accumulated 1140 tickets that we gave to an adorable curly haired boy and his sister.) P.S. These are the dates that remind me of how perfect Tom is for me.. only the 2 of us at age 28, can have an awesome Saturday night at Chuck E Cheese's.
