On Sunday, the fourteenth, we went to church in North Chittenden, and then left the chickens with the rest of the family- Josh and I drove up to St. Albans feeling like almost-newlyweds. One baby seems so easy after three!
It was fun to make the trip with a four month old baby boy- when we left St. Albans, we only had Bowden, and we have done most of the things we did on Sunday just the same, four years ago. We ate out at Mimmo's and got the calamari and tortellini alla panna.
Josh and Jack, ready to eat. Well, Josh is ready, at least.
They have improved the restaurant greatly, which is surprising, since pretty much everything else in the city was the same or just gone. Josh posing with the carved remains of a tree that still lived when the Tates resided in St. Albans.

Josh loves St. Albans. We drove from there to Burlington and walked around on Church Street. We bought two choclate truffles from the Lake Champlain Chocolate Store and some very chocolatey cocoa. We visited Frog Hollow, our favorite art gallery, and Borders, our favorite franchise.
It was really nice, and we got back to the Lake House before the kids and Mom and Dad and Jobie.
for incredible feats of tremendous noise and nearly relentless activity...

I really enjoyed reading this post, because it made me feel so much more connected to your family. My sister lives in Fairfax, and when I was staying with her this summer, I bought groceries in St. Albans, and visited the same chocolate shops and galleries in Burlington. It was a cool feeling.
BTW, did you have a good church you could recommend in St. Albans or nearby? My sister is looking for one.
