Vacation!

We are leaving in a couple of ours for our vacation. I booked this one in March and having been looking forward to it since. We decided not to fly any where because we weren't sure what my pregnancy status would be. So we are going back to Bar Harbor, Maine like last year.
The place we rented allows us to bring the dogs. It's great because we can bring them for walks on the beach or in Acadia National Park. We rent a cottage on the ocean. There is a long pier to sit and watch the kayakers, sailboats and lobster boats go by. It is such an amazingly peaceful spot.
I can't wait to spend 24 hours, 7 days with Tom. He has been working so much I hardly get to see him. Now it will be us, the dogs and Peanut off on our adventures.
Have a lovely week everyone!
