Weekend in Vermont

We drove up to Vermont on Friday to finalize some wedding plans.  (Can you believe we're getting married in less than three weeks?!  Eeep!)

We spent Friday afternoon in Burlington, VT.   We got some food from a street vendor and sat in the park nomming down.  I had french fries with gravy (or "Poutine" if you want to be fancy and make it sound like you're not really just a chubby lady eating french fries drenched in gravy.)  Madeline ate a hotdog bun.

Then we went to our cupcake tasting!!!  This was a great way to top of the gravy fries I ate for lunch.  So many cupcakes....

Obviously, we didn't like them one bit.


After eating the frosting off two cupcakes, Madeline went into a bit of a sugar induced high, so we brought her to a toy store to work off some energy.  
And I found her this amazing roller-derby jacket for 60 percent off.  HAD to have it.  
We topped off the afternoon with a narrated cruise of Lake Champlain aboard the Spirit of Ethan Allen.  We're hosting our rehearsal dinner on this boat, so Eric and I decided to scope out the sitch.
Madeline got pretty bored fast.  Apparently the fascinating history of Samuel de Champlain does not interest her.  She'd rather screech loudly and wait for people's reaction.  (Spoiler Alert:  it doesn't usually end well.)

Eric took her for a lot of walks around the boat to keep her amused.  I couldn't take her for any walks because I wore a skirt and it was windy, and nobody wants to see the thighs and underpants of a gravy-fry-eating lady.  
Me: Dress- Dorothy Perkins//Cardigan-Gap  Madeline: Shirt and Hat: Old Navy//Skirt-Polarn O Pyret gifted//Shoes- Payless

Saturday was spent up with Mimi and Bob in their cabin.  We met our Justice of the Peace, visited a farmer's market, ate A LOT of food, and hung out by the lake.
And flashed the flowers our belly....obviously...

I'm linking up with Steppin' Out Saturday!  Go check it out!
