This past weekend Joe surprised me and took me away to Vermont for the day. What a good husband I have!! It was a much needed trip away from the everyday grind. We were in desperate need of some time to reconnect and the trip up was just the ticket. We left the house bright and early and before we knew it we were already there. We started the day off with a drive through Smugglers Notch. It is so beautiful and if you ever have the chance you should totally check it out. We spent some time in the town where some of Joe's family is from. He used to spend summers there as a child, it was fun to see his old stomping grounds.
After a trip back through the notch we headed through Stowe, Vt. It is a town known for skiing and has many beautiful resorts, B&B's, lots of shopping and great restaurants. We stopped there for a very yummy lunch and a walk down main street and through the local shops. After time spent in Stowe we headed to Waterbury, home of Ben & Jerry's. We took some time to stop at the Cider Mill (which we LOVE), I had a ball at an antic store that I could have stayed in all day, and of course we headed to Ben & Jerry's to end the day. We took sever pics to share and we hope that you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed spending the day together.
