Maine part 3

 When we got back to Dedicek and Ceci's, Kaija and Henry were in the pool, so Emory, Peter John, and I jumped in too. After the pool we all showered up for some green beans, mashed potatoes, and chicken.
When dinner was over we gathered around the TV to watch a movie. We lasted about halfway through the show before heading off to bed. For the last couple of days we just played around the house all day long.

On the last day, we all got up early to have our fill of the pool before we started heading for Aunt Tara and Uncle Brian's. I was sad to leave Dedicek and Ceci's, but at the same time I was excited  to see my cousin Jack again. It was an easy drive back until we hit a bunch of traffic in New York.
We got there a little late, but at least the pizza guy arrived an hour after us so we could get it while it was hot.

We did a lot in the three days we had in NJ.
Peter John and I spent most of the mornings building slipping slides in the back yard. Aunt Tara and my Mom took us to the Pondorosa park every day to play in the splash pool. One day we even bought  popsicles  from the ice cream truck. In the woods by the park there was a stream in which we had been building a dam since last October. The stream started to sort of turn into a swimming pool the bigger the dam got. Most of the time Dad and Uncle Brian were working upstairs so we only saw them in the afternoons and on their brakes.

On the second day Ceci came to stay for the night because her and Dedicek took Henry and Kaija to New York city before they flew back to Charleston.
That night at 6:00 we went to Aunt Tara's neighbor's restaurant Mara's because on Tuesdays, they have a balloon guy and a face paint lady come. We got their Gelato which was really good! I bought some mint and cookie gelato. Peter John got the coolest face paint job I've every seen! he got  a Captain America mask and he looked just like him. That was one of the most exciting nights.

I was not that happy the next day because we were going back to South Carolina.
