Vermont Trip for GG Sybil and GG Paul's 80th


We had a great time in VT! While we were there we stayed at Gram and Chuck's the first night with just enough time for a trip to the barn to see Beau then off to Willoughby along with 3 cars, 2 grocery stores, our linens + the ASTON flag Gram made:) Gram and Chuck rented a house on the lake that was really perfect besides the fact that it was a little dirty...just sand dirty not nasty dirty:) Aston loved the beach! Uncle Bruce and Tuck took us water skiing...Jeff's first time...only took three times and he was up! way to go Daddy! Just had a bruised butt (both cheeks) for the next 2 weeks:) The best part was getting to see GG Paul and GG Sybil (GG was the nickname we came up with because Great Grands is a mouthful), Emily, Mackenzie, Tucker, Bruce, Pam, Laurel, Dana, Jenny, Guy and of course Gram, Chuck and Aunt Megan! The birthday celebration was at Bruce and Pam's rental place (which was nicer than ours...but who's counting). Gram made the cakes, Guy brought the wine and Bruce and Pam did the cookin'...YUM YUM! I think the GG's had a good time:) Next night Chuck and Jeff did the entertaining...lots of hours behind the grill supplying us with more meat than the state of VT could consume! Fun times...needs to happen more often:) That morning we went to see the Old Stone House and to take the family photo (we didn't know about the photo, otherwise we would've brought Jeff and Chuck...oops...guess that's why there's photoshop:)) The last day we went to the falls where Aston promptly wanted to dive in head first...crazy baby...then off to the GG's for a ham dinner and lottery Scratch off tickets:) The next morning back to South Hero for a Lasagna Dinner ala Gram and more time for Aston to admire Chuck's Big Red Truck!
