A little Maine Magic


Memories of our time in Maine.... A place we have definitely come to love. It seems as though we have found a place where we each adore something and can truly have a vacation with something for everyone! We have fallen into the routine of spending the morning at the beach, 'home' for lunch and a little down time, and then sightseeing/shopping after that. So, shopping, the ocean, Chuck E Cheese (our girls love that place:), and of course our traditional Lobster supper.

A funny/appalling little story for the memory book!

We had eaten lobster at home about a month prior to our trip. Victoria will not imagine eating lobster, but the rest of us enjoy it! Well, Miss Hannah devoured hers, and any we would give to her! Simply loved it! When we went out for our lobster meal in Maine, we noticed that the children's menu had seafood, but no lobster option. We quickly decided to spring for the full lobster meal for her so that we didn't have to share! hehe Seriously, thought it would be best for our girls to have their fill! So, when our Lobster meals were ready, we took off the lid and dear, quiet (mostly) little Hannah began to shriek! And I do mean shriek! She screamed at the top of her lungs, "AHHHHH MONSTER!!!!!!!!!!!! MONSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" OMG I was stunned at her reaction! We told her that it was not a monster, but rather a lobster! She wasn't having any of it!!!! She was so petrified that we actually switched tables. Kev sat at one, taking out all of the meat and we girls sat at another table until it was finished. Hannah didn't have a bite that night! I have never seen her as scared! Poor baby! Although a little embarrassing, it is funny to look back upon! I can understand it a little, lobster, monster very similar sounding in a noisy environment, and then add those tentacles! MONSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
