We got home Sunday night from yet another wonderful trip up to our house in Maine. We had the pleasure of meeting Peachie and she is SO nice and sweet. We got to see our first moose (VERY close up I may add!). We were hiking and stopped to get a few pics at a beautiful view spot and my husband turns around and says... "ohhh my gosh, kids get up on the rock, a moose is on the trail coming towards us" A moose walked right up using the trail we walked down on and was just looking at us as we quietly sat on the rock in awe looking at her. She then walked right around the rock, stopped next to it and just hung out with us for over 30 min till she decided to go for a swim. It was amazing... She was 10 feet from us as she trapped us on the rock. Got a TON of great pics in Maine, here is just a few. We already can't wait to be back... even with those annoying black flies that swarmed us! LOL Its sooo wonderful up there.










I LOVE the one of my 7 yr old just sitting there staring at the moose. My 11 yr old was in awe and took over 100 pics with his camera and my 4 yr old just kept saying awww, what a cute little moose.
