Day 2 of our Journey - exploring Abbot Farm and Winery. Wednesday, June 16th, 2022

One of the very kind owners, Nancy, showing us around the farm. Lots to do (playground, bounce pad, slides, animals)....kids had a blast!

The kids got to feed and pet the goats, chickens and their favorite, the bunnies!

50 amp power - spot #6. Nice location. Abbot Farm and Winery - NY 

Day 1 of our Journey - Tuesday, June 14th, 2022

Foster and Stella were excited to be at our first stop and ready to try out their new bed!

Our spot for the night! All set up and ready for bed....everyone was wiped out and ready for SLEEP! 

We had to get out and look for a spot to park and safely drive through the farm. 

We arrived! Later than expected, but our first stop - Abbot Farm and Winery (NY) - Harvest Host. 

Not long after our journey began, we were stuck in a parking lot.....

After six years in Vermont, we said goodbye to friends and the only house Foster has ever lived in. 

Goodbye Laurel Hill. Lots of memories! 

Our journey begins....goodbye Vermont. **FLASHBACK**before trip. June 13th-14th

Been a busy busy month for us as we prepared for our seven week journey with our final destination being Tennessee. We said goodbye to friends and the only house Foster ever lived in. Our first stop on the journey - Abbot Farm and Winery. Late arrival, but glad to be out of the truck and sleeping in the rig for the first night. Looking forward to exploring the farm in the morning. 

Bye Mike.....we were always excited to hear the ice cream truck coming down the street on Sunday. 

We were able to make time for our last boat outing in Vermont and chance to see friends before moving. (Top left toright) Johnny, Mike, Chris, Ali, Will, Leo, Carson, Foster, Joe, Stella, Colby. 

Stella’s trip to the nail salon

Stella went with mommy to the nail salon.

She had her nails clipped, filed, and painted.

She chose a pretty, shimmery purple/pink color. She was very patient while mommy had a pedicure.

She had a great time and wants to go again soon.

Foster’s first pee pee in the potty

This is exactly the post we will need to pull out years from now when Foster is trying to be cool an impress high school or college friends.

While getting ready for his bath this evening, Foster was running around in his birthday suit. He started to tinkle on the floor (which is not uncommon)...

Upon seeing the start of a puddle, mom yelled “no, no!” Which made him stop peeing.

Mom quickly picked him up and plopped him on the potty, saying “go pee pee.” He then finished going in the potty.

It was probably mostly luck but we’ll count it as a potty win!

Stella’s last day of school

Stella just completed her first year of Pre-kindergarten classes at The Children’s School

Shes having morning snack with Logan (same side as Stella), Grace (across from Logan), and Gunnar (across from Stella).

She made lots of good friends this year but her best friends were Leo and Hadley. They will both be back next year with her.
She really enjoyed her first year and is looking forward to going for her final year in August.
