Sammie and I had an awesome time in New Hampshire. Absolutely gorgeous state and it was also very relaxing. We didn't take Lucy with us and that was probably one of the reasons why it was so relaxing. It was incredibly weird to be away for so long, but oddly enough, it is weirder being back. I had completely forgotten what it was like to sleep. I forgot what it was like to sleep in! I also forgot what it was like to have a day to myself! Well, the reason its so weird being back is because I oddly feel like a new mom again. She has changed so much in four days and has learned so much. I find myself asking, "This is mine?" Luckily, its like getting back on a bike and going. She was a little confused for a bit but after the second day, she has been back to laughing, smiling Lucy.
I wish I had actually gotten pictures while we were there. The first day I was there I woke up to an amazing view of a beautiful lake and rolling hills in the background. Nothing but nature surrounded Sammie's grandparent's house. It was GORGEOUS. I actually woke up as the sun was coming up and watched it rise over the lake. So pretty! Then the next day, I actually woke up to the view of the river in Manchester. Again, an amazing view. Everything was so fun, too. Being with Sammie's highschool friend Paul and his wife, Bethenny was SO fun! Not to mention there was A LOT of drinking...not by me of course. I did take a few sips here and there and had a beer....or two at the 10 Year Highschool reunion. All I have to say is that I have never tasted beer so good. They had a beer there that was a Pumpkin Beer (on draft) and when they served it to you, it had a shot of Vanilla Liqueur and a rim of brown sugar, and cinnamon....HEAVENLY. Don't worry I only had a sip, but if I wasn't pregnant, I could have drank those all night. Bethenny also introduced me to "Cider Beer". It basically tastes like an apple cider beer. Light and SO delicious. I probably could have changed between those two through the night if I could. I mean seriously New Hampshire=Gourmet Beer....next time I go I will NOT be pregnant and I will have one of those pumpkin beers aaaallll to myself!
Of course, everyone else was drunk except for the other pregnant girl (at the reunion). I was ok until the end of the night when my butt was numb from sitting on a bar stool all night and everyone commenting on my belly AND people telling me that they can't believe Sammie procreated...twice. So grateful Bethenny was at the Highschool Reunion. I was grateful for someone to talk to so that I didn't have to be Sammie's lost puppy.
One thing I hated about meeting new people is that I am from the south. That excuse aside, I tend to put my foot in my mouth a lot. Which, I feel I did a lot while I was there. I'm sure no one else cared and I am sure most either don't remember or don't think about it as hard as I do. O well, I know I probably won't see most of those people later in life and by that time, I am sure they will have forgotten....hopefully.
The following video is of Sammie very drunk and his gassy friend, Paul. There is a REASON that I am NOT putting this video on Facebook and that is due to the language. So there is your warning before you watch. And this is the ONLY one I could post because the others are just....well how is anyone drunk? By this time they were completely hammered and when I showed this to Sammie, he said he didn't even remember it.
post more videoZ!
