New Things

It's been a busy several weeks.... and not enough energy to tell all... so here's a quick highlight... We finally traded in Dan's car and bought a 2007 Honda Pilot.... It's a great SUV. Aberdeen Metallic Green with the Olive leather interior..


And a year-end clearance that sold us... sure it's poor gas mileage but a great car for those long road trips to Maine and Maryland.

The day after we bought it, we in fact took it to Maine for the Marr-Pierce Family Reunion. It was a great turnout for Dan's Paternal Grandmother's side (confusing huh??). About 21 family members flew in from Nebraska for the weekend. And Evan was the youngest attendee by 2 months.... Luke was a couple months older... and Luke is the grandchild of Dan's cousin. Can you believe that???

There are some photos from our trip available to see here. I didn't put all but just enough to get the idea. Dan's father comes from a family of Lighthouse keepers... and in this case we visited the lighthouse in which Frank was born--- Hendricks Head. There's a museum dedicated to this quaint little lighthouse (a non round lighthouse). But during our visit we toured Boothbay Harbor as well.

So in Evan's life of 8.5 months, he has visited RI, CT, NJ, FL, Toronto, ME and soon he'll be visiting Ocean City, MD and then Washington DC (with a trip to PA in between???). So you have to beg the question... Where have you been in the past 8.5 months of your life...
