Trip to Vermont

We returned early Tuesday morning from our visit to "camp"- Lauren's family's summer house in Vermont. This is one of the greatest places on earth and we don't know anyone who has been there who has not come home refreshed and peaceful. This was Joshua's first visit and although Autumn has been there before she was really too young. So they were both indoctrinated and we all had a fabulous time.


Here is bright blue eyes, taking in the view from the rocker on the porch.

The motor boat was a hit!

Joshua met one of his developmental "milestones" while at camp...standing unassisted for an extended period of time and walking while holding our hands. Yes, he is 16 months old...a little delayed but catching up fast!

We visited Billings Farm and Autumn had lots of fun. Here she is churning homemade ice cream...

...learning how to use a loom...

...and being shown how to knit.

We enjoyed lots of hugs and roasting marshmellows for smores.

Joshua can't wait to be a big boy and help with the boat.

The water was refreshing and fun!

Finally, a beautiful sunset before we left camp on Monday night. It's always hard to leave but we will keep this picture in our mind's eye all year until we return again.
