How Marie Drinks

Marie loves to drink out of mine and LaMont's cup. We hold it for her and she drinks. She was walking around with her bottle one day when she found a Carolina cup on the ground. She put her bottle inside the cup so that she could drink like a big girl...

Rhode Island

Marie had her first plane ride the weekend of her birthday. We flew to Rhode Island for a couple days for my cousin Amy's wedding. It was such a wonderful trip. We went with my mom and dad and sister Becky. Marie did great on the plane. The hardest part was keeping her in our aisle. She wanted to explore. She loved to look out the windows. She was also very helpful with the luggage.

We got to see Mary Lou who we haven't seen in a while. We got some pictures with her. We also got to see Uncle Mike and Sandy, Zach and his wife who we just loved, Amy and her now husband who are also wonderful. We had the best time seeing the beautiful harbors and just enjoying New England. It made me miss New England so much. This is where I am from (Maine). I realized that deep down I am a New Englander at heart.
