We've been blogging since April 2001 in some form or fashion. Our blogging has grown with the additions of Reagan, Anderson and Graham. We try to update daily so check back often!

Highlights from today: (click here for the pictures)
  • Leaving the hotel this morning around 8:15 and heading to Vermont-our 49th state, Reagans 26th, Andersons 19th and Grahams 4th state
  • Stopping at a Visitor's Center and enjoying cookies and apple cider from a local bakesale
  • Crossing a covered bridge on the way to Saint Gaudens National Historic Park
  • Driving to Sugarbush Farms through the beautiful fall foilage-we have seen the most beautiful leaves and are here at the perfect time
  • Having cheese and maple syrup samples at Sugarbush Farms after our picnic and feeding a few farm animals (Reagan enjoyed this but Anderson did not)
  • Our first 'family of 5' back picture in front of the Taftsville covered bridge leaving the Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Historic Park
  • Driving through the pouring rain to Montpilier and seeing the State House and Governor's Mansion
  • Touring Ben and Jerry's Factory-the tour was fine but it concluded with a huge scoop of Half Baked ice cream (our new favorite)
  • Stopping by the Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe, Vermont
  • Lasagna at Bove's in Burlington (as seen on Throwdown with Bobby Flay)-it was delicious and Reagan and Anderson even enjoyed it
  • Calling it a night in Burlington-we had a few meltdowns by Reagan and Anderson but they did fairly well for a long day in the car-actually got a load of laundry done and in bed by 11
