The Maine Event 2008

So every year, on the last weekend of July, a large part of Daddy's family gathers on the island up in Maine to have a casual family reunion. Here is Daddy leading Kaylee up the big hill to meet and/or greet her cousins.

Kaylee really liked the decorations on the back of cousin Peter's house.

"How very Maine-like," Kaylee thinks.

She really was quite fascinated.

Then it was time to lounge in the hammock for a while with Daddy.

And then it was time to eat some dinner...because this particular family reunion was also a celebration of a cousin's recent marriage. So the eats were particularly good.
And then...well it was time to dance. We were shocked at how much Kaylee liked dancing. She is normally an observer...but this time she was a mover and a shaker. First she danced with cousin CJ.
She really kept the dance floor going, I mean who could resist dancing with this lil cutie?
We be jammin!
Well, ok, perhaps her moves could use some refining...but, she sure was having fun.
Lots of her little cousins wanted to include her.
But her favorite dance partner definitely seemed to be Margaret.
Then, it was time to head home. While Mommy and Daddy scrambled to pack everything up and find the puppies...Kaylee did some doodling.

She had a great a time...exploring, eating, dancing and doodling...what more could a toddler want? And that's it for July!
