A trip to Bangor, Maine with Jason and Heather Tang

Jason (Nate's ex-roommate) and Heather flew in from HI to visit Jason's parents in Bangor. So...we tagged along. And we're glad we did because we had a pretty darn good time!

Here's us with the 4 kids. One's still in the oven.




This is Bangor's claim to fame: Stephen King's house


Notice the spiderweb ironwork.


Jason's mom charitably offered to watch Ashlyn and Edie while the rest of us drove to Bar Harbor. They apparently had a memorable time at the park, library, and grocery store (the favorite activity being screaming down the aisles driving a truck grocery cart).

Meanwhile, here's Allison waiting for her lobster.

And Nate - BFF

We later got real ice cream.


Cadillac Mountain
where Megan Lindsay and I watched the first sunrise of the new millennium.
I didn't get any pictures of Jason's parents, but they are pretty awesome.
They shared all of their ancient family Chinese food recipes with us, as well as some newer vitamixer ones.

In closing, here are Ashlyn and Edie being best friends.





FYI: Jason is a sportscaster on Oahu. That's why we're still friends with him - because he has an impressive occupation.

We miss you, Tangs!

Ummm... we pretty much rock. Our only regret, not staying longer, not staying up all night the last night, and I think that's it. So much fun. Ashlyn still talks about Edie all day, she always asks to look at pictures of the two of them on the computer. Plus, she talks about Edie in her sleep... too funny. We miss you guys! Come visit! :)

oh... one more regret. Putting ashlyn in those hideous pink pants. How embarassing.
BTW, we're only friends with you because you're rich... :)

I love the pics of Allison waiting for her lobster and Nate with it. I've heard that if you have a baby food grinder you can just put the lobster through it. Ha! She'd love it.

[To anyone who reads this and doesn't know me, I'm completely joking. Don't try this at home or even in Maine.]
