Goes on my blog! Chris and I went up to see my parents in the Birkshires this weekend. They rented a house for 3 weeks in Falls Village, CT (about 2 1/2-3 hours from the city). It was a great places and an amazing get-away. Here are a few pictures from our trip:

Chris and I in front of the cornfield in the backyard of the house...right before we saw a snake. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Fantastic cocktails at our amazing Saturday night dinner. |
|
Chris and I at the restaurant after dinner. |
|
The fam...minus Nick outside the restaurant after dinner. |
|
Stunning sunset on the way home from dinner. |
|
By far the silliest picture of the trip. Doing strawberry facemasks. |
|
A field filled with sunflowers...unfortunately at the time when this picture was taken they were all facing the wrong direction. |
|
Covered bridge country! |
|
We bought lots of great old books at random sales in various towns. A Girl Scout Handbook from the 1930's, a 1940's copy of Dante's Divine Comedy, a couple of fantastic cookbooks, an interesting tell all survival book, and a few art books. |
|

|
Some things from going antiquing around the small towns: a vintage first aid kit ($1), an ammo box from the '40s ($25), and a vintage Sears microscope ($5). |
|
Sadly, all vacations come to an end, but this view driving into NYC sure does make it a bit better... |
|
And coming home to this little guy! |
