Fabulous Weekend in Vermont

"Let go and let the wind guide you where ever it may blow. The destination might surprise you with something so incredibly wondrous."
~Mama Hen
I am all about surprises and creating fun memories for my family. We decided last minute to take a trip to Vermont and see the Hot Air Balloon Festival. In all my 40 years I have never seen a hot air balloon in real life and I must say that it was breathtaking! We drove up on Saturday to our favorite little Inn and of course took Little Chick for a swim. We then had a delicious dinner and headed in for the night. On Sunday we went to the Billing's Farm to visit all of Little Chick's furry friends;. She loved the baby cows! We then went to try out the outdoor pool and found that we were frozen Popsicles after one lap, so we got out and headed to the indoor pool where we had a fantastic time. After a nap we went for dinner and then to the Balloon Festival. Little Chick was so excited! We stood right in the middle of the balloons as they were starting to fill with air. It was an incredible experience. On Monday we went swimming one more time and then back to the farm before heading home. A spectacular weekend!
