York Maine

We decided to take a spur of the moment weekend away up to York, Maine for the weekend with the kids.  It was mostly a girl trip with Heidi & her boys, me and Colton, my mom, Aunt Judy and Nicole (8 months prego). We took the kids to the York zoo and amusement park which is super small and fun for little ones.  The coolest part is you walk out the back entrance and you are right at the little waterfront, downtown, beach area. We got our seafood fix, penny candy and even some sparklers for the beach.  The next day we hit the beach with our new body boards and discovered all the crabs and wildlife in the rocks.  Colton and Riley learned how to pick up a crab and we must have caught at least 50 before we released them back to the ocean.  Naturally we hit some outlets on the way back home and had a fantastic lunch at the Pigs Can Fly restaurant...yes this delicious bread company has a full out swanky restaurant up there and it was mmmm mmm good.  Such a nice unplanned getaway, it is amazing how a short weekend away can sometimes be more relaxing than an entire week vacation.
