Fall in Vermont

Even though it's been over a month since we took our Vermont trip I still wanted to post some pictures. I already miss the weather. Especially since it is snowing there now! Here's about a million pictures...

I just love these little hats




I just love how Caroline was laughing so hard

Andrew and I took a little day trip to Deerfield, Ma which is home to a dream school, Deerfield Academy. I just love how small the states are in the Northeast. We like to take beautiful drives through the different states.

We went to a neat Fall Festival at Stratton Ski Mountain...they had drinks, food, live music. Everyone just sat out on the green mountain and enjoyed the weather.



 We took the girls on a hayride...

I definitely know how my inlaws fell in love with Vermont. It's so beautiful and peaceful there. Can't wait to go back!

Halloween

So I'm not a big Halloweener but I'm sure that will change now that we have the little ones. I will say this was one of the best Halloween's we have ever had! The girls were so cute! Our friends and neighbors had us over for a little front yard gathering. Caroline even got her first kiss! Haha! Too bad we all missed it on camera.

The girls were little pumpkins. I made the tutus they wore. Most of you may think I'm really crafty but it's more like cheap. Those can run up to $30 and it took me $10 and an hour to make both! Although, I will say I have gotten a little more Martha Stewart these days. I refuse to pay $10 for a boutique bow, especially since I have to buy double. So with a little help from YouTube, I've been making those as well.

I promise my girls were actually smiling before and after these photos. They must not have enjoyed the strange skirt, dead grass, bundled up like it was 40 degrees even though it was 70 and huge orange things we propped them on. I can't imagine why...
 They look so chunky, haha! Maybe it's the hats.
