Gorgeous Lake Mountain Views

So I haven't posted in awhile, but I am now bombarding our blog, trying to catch up! I'll try to stay on top of things what with the holidays here! Fertility/Infertility stuff has kept me very preoccupied, so I'm trying to stay positive and we hope to give you good news soon! Anyway, enjoy some gorgeous pics from our deck!

Our Monsters!

Scouts Camping

Chris went with a few of the scouts camping and took this pic up Spanish Fork canyon...

The Killers

September 27, 2009, The Killers came to the E Center! I got free tix through work and I have to say, I haven't seen such an amazing concert since U2!

Montreal

Before heading back to Vermont, we went to Montreal. I remembered Montreal as a clean, gorgeous city. I don't know if it's changed, or if I just don't remember clearly, but between seeing a few guys bare it all and pee in the street and more sex shops I could count, my view of it has changed. I think the shopping is still good, but all the shops were closed when we were walking around...

Notre Dame Cathedral - Canadian Style - I still love this church, it has beautiful architecture

Walkin' around Old Montreal

Cool fountains on our way back to our hotel by McGill, right before we saw the little dog we wanted to get our dogs as a present

Portsmouth NH and Maine

After Boston and Salem, we continued up the coast to Portsmouth, New Hampshire and then up to Maine...

The Drive to Portsmouth

Portsmouth, where maybe we'll retire or live someday!

Maine lighthouse

Chris and the Indian at the little store by the lighthouse

Gorgeous landscapes and sunset!

We didn't want to leave Maine without getting lobster, but with temperatures in the 40s and only lobster stands open, we had to get our lobster and eat it in the car! Luckily it was a rental car, but I never thought I'd eat lobster by breaking the shell on the steering wheel!

Boston

After Vermont, we drove down to Boston...

Old buildings meet New

Northend (Charlestown) near the Bunker Hill Monument - where I'd like to live!

Chris and Samuel Adams in front of historic Quincy Market

North End/Little Italy = my fav!

Chris at the Bunker Hill Monument that we climbed all the way to the top of - I was way dizzy!

Onboard the USS Constitution

After Boston, we drove up to Salem, MA and I am disrespectfully pretending to be hung!

Vermont

After the wedding, I was to give Chris a quick New England tour. Since I'm from VT, and the wedding was there, we started in Vermont!

My old house on Stevensville Road that my parents built - and we CAMPED for an entire summer while building it!

Wedding

On September 5, one of my best friends from Vermont got married! It was a gorgeous wedding and reception and it seemed like everything went unbelievably smoothly (except of course I was frazzled because Chris' plane was delayed by a day and he couldn't make it in until right before the ceremony, walking in right after Jess walked down the aisle!) But seriously gorgeous wedding!
