Ladder to the Stars: Return!

There's much to catch up on! I've been on a few trips and been in the hectic pace of a workplace in some transition. To review:
I spent a magical weekend with my best girlfriends on the Mississippi coast, eating donuts, drinking coffee, playing with nail polish, cuddling a sweet pup and sipping a delicious white wine/vodka/berry concoction. Being with those girls is always the best antidote for anything that ails us!

Just last night, we got back from a vacation to Vermont with A's family. The lakehouse is on Thompson's Point at Lake Champlaign. All of A's siblings, our nephew met his grandmother at the lakehouse for four days of sitting in the breeze, splashing in kayaks, swimming, wandering around downtown Burlington, eating mountains of ice cream, and making trouble with all of his Vermont cousins and their children.

I seem to have forgotten to take any photos my coast weekend, but I'm going to pull some from my other friends and put them up tomorrow (these sweet girls are too beautiful to not share!). For now, here are some Vermont snaps.

All photos are from the iPhone/Instagram, Noahman's the only kiddo pictured because I didn't ask permission to post any of the others, but there were seven other children between the ages of 3 and 10 all chasing A and his brother around. I preferred to drink beer and offer some post-crazy hugs and rocking.
