the maine thing.

Well, We got back from Maine today. It was super fun, great to see Mic and Van's house and wreck it all up. : ) I took lots of pictures so, once those come back I will post them. I think I have a few on the digital though, that Mom and Dad took.
We had an awesome time with Gramps, we spent a couple days with him. The first day he just took us all around Maine as usual, we went to this guys house, a friend of my grandpa's, It was SO funny! He was this older guy, and he played the harmonica, the accordian, the spoons, and this saw. Lol, it was great. I made some video clips on the digital, but I'm not sure how to post them. I'll find out. They're really not as funny unless you know my Grandpa. He told this ghost story about the little drummer boy of Castine. OH GOODNESS! LOL it was halarious! You had to be there though. Micah was jealous that he wasn't with us that day. The next day we spent with Grandpa we chilled at the house, but Grandpa had all these chores he wanted Micah to do, such as climbing this tree to cut off some branches, and then dig a grave for his dog that isn't dead yet.
We played rook that night, and Granpda repeatedly reprimanded me for cheating, and I SO wasn't! I was protecting the outcome of the game! Techincally, Micah was the one cheating. Mom, Vanessa, and I were on a team, and Grandpa, Micah, and Dad were a team. So us girls would get a hand with tons of points in it, and then Micah would lay this stupid trump card on it and take the hand, BUT, Esther saved the day by glancing at his hand and seeing that he really had more cards and was using a trump card illegally. SO I would tell him so. And then he would look at his hand and be like, "dag-nab-it!" And fix it. He did this several times. Too many to count.
And got all mad at me for looking at his hand when he had it LAYING out so you could see everything anyways! So then I tried to correct Micah a little less obvious, and one a hand where green was called, and we had it, he laid a little red trump card, and I saw that he still had green, I just went: "Ahem." I thought I did it SO smooth, so Micah grabbed the red card back and threw down a green one, and Grandpa saw it and started laughing. It was fun, haha!

THE GUNS OF BEAVER LODGE!
ppppppppppppppoOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

*If I'm right, only Micah will laugh for the above statement. And maybe Van.*

We watched Batman Begins. It was super good. We all liked it. I was playing the piano after and everyone's like, "Esther, play the batman soundtrack!" They all think that since I can do Castaway music I can do EVERYTHING. The only reason I can play Castaway is because its mostly piano. So I made an attempt at Batman.
As Micah's hovering over me and yelling; "MORE BASS, MORE BASS!"
*shrugs shoulders*

It was a fun trip. Though my earbuds went on burt. So I bought cheap ones.

I was going to make eggs benedict Sunday morning, and I had the water boiling and everything. I was about to drop a little egg in when poof. The power was gone. Sp I made them the next morning. For those of you who don't know, Eggs benedict is a toasted english muffin, with a slice of ham or tomato, (your preference) a poached egg, holandaise sauce with a touch of lemon, and fresh parsley sprinkled on the top.
Its good.
I don't even like egss.

So I made it the next day. And everyone loved it.

Micah took me in the woods to show me this river by their house, and a lovely waterfall, and he fell in.
Got really wet. It was funny. He took off running through the woods, dripping, and left me there by myself. So I just took pictures and sauntered back.


I must leave now.
