Vermont
Our trip to Vermont this weekend was great. We got to Jen's parent's house around 8 Friday night. Other than Ian losing a tooth, the trip up was pretty uneventful, we beat traffic through Hartford and Springfield. We hit some dinner time skier traffic in Ludlow but the rest was smooth sailing. Ian had a hard time the first night there with different noises, we all had a pretty fitful night as a result.Saturday Ian got to play with his cousins Jade and Brandon and they had a great time. The kids all went for a walk with Jen, Vicky and Grandma. The kids held hands pretty much the whole time. On the walk they saw some wild turkey tracks. Then they went to see some cows. After a full day of playing we had a nice ham dinner and then Vicky, Jade and Brandon went home. We played some Uno Attack, worked on a jigsaw puzzle for a while but we were all really tired so we made it an early night and went to bed. Ian didn't have any problem sleeping that night.
Sunday we had a quiet morning, packed up and headed home. The trip home went well also, again except for Ian losing a tooth. We stopped at the Vermont Country Store but it was crazy and we didn't get to look around as much as we wanted to. After we got home, Ian and Jen went to the store to get some groceries and I went to get the dogs. Now we're just relaxing and having a nice quiet Sunday evening.
