Whirlwind Weekend

CrAzY weekend for sure.  We headed to NY on Saturday morning to spend a few hours at our favorite family pumpkin/tree farm before I spent the evening shooting maternity pictures for a good friend and long time customer. 

Got to spend a few hours with friends and the farm too.  The girls loved running around at one of our favorite spots in NY.  Thanks, as always, E family for the great family fun!  We will be there every fall!

After I finished shooting that evening, we drove the rest of the way to camp.  The girls were troopers.  They were tired from all the farm activities but stayed awake until we arrived to camp.

Jim built a fire in the wood burner and had the house warmed up quickly (along with the heat).  The next morning he spent a few hours covering the boat up.  The weather was horrific so we decided to take an impromptu trip to The Vermont Country Store.  Holy Moly!  We were in heaven.  Jim picked out some wine, cheese and crackers.  I found some unique hand salve, all natural sinus relief rub, lip balm (of course since I am addicted to chap).  We bought some candy treats for the girls too. 

The store is amazing.  I always love looking through their catalog at mom and dad's. The store carries such unique things that you can't find in most stores.  The girls were phenomenal!  The store was so crowded but they rocked.  We were proud of them.  Jim and I had such a blast and we were so glad that our last minute decision resulted in such a fun day for us!

Another evening at the lake house and another fire in the wood stove that evening.  Jim and I were suffocating (not really, but still so toasty)!  The house got up to 80 degrees and I know that most of you know that I keep my regular home at 66 in the winter time.  I was roasting!  Then reality hit when we got home today and the house was at 66 degrees.  Jim said to me just a little bit ago that he misses his wood stove at camp!

Anyway, it was a whirlwind and I didn't exactly love spending 7 hours in the car on my birthday.  Bu I did appreciate all of the well wishes from everyone and I really appreciated that mom left a cake on my counter for when we got home! Thanks Mom!  That was a nice surprise!

Just one picture of my girls from the weekend.
