Our 1st Anniversary

What a vacation! I've been M.I.A for the past few days because Mike and I were celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary! We spent the weekend in Burlington, VT. We wanted to go somewhere we had never been but on a budget seeing that we just bought a house. Burlington was so beautiful, we stayed at the Hilton in an amazing room overlooking Lake Champlain.

We walked around Church Street, poked in and out of shops, had lunch and sampled beers at The Vermont Pub & Brewery.

We brought our wedding cake with us and dove into that after lunch!

Yup...this happened! Why wouldn't you eat cake in bed...right out of the box?

Still looks delicious!

This is all we could eat until we felt sick...

We walked down to the water and took a trip to the Burlington Aquarium! For our 1st year dating Mike took me to the Boston Aquarium so it seemed fitting that we would spend our 1st year married at an aquarium!

We made reservations at a great restaurant called Leunig's right on Church Street so we could people watch! We had a bottle of wine and SO much food!

Appetizer: Curried Coconut Mussels

Cheese Plate: Had my first cheese plate at a restaurant, Mike's a cheese guy (I'm not) but it was amazing!

Mixed Green Salad: I LOVE salad! It had a Maple Vinaigrette that was delicious!

Entree: Mike got Cavatappi Carbonara and I got the Maple Walnut Crusted Salmon

Dessert: HA-we were too full! 

On our way home we stopped by the Ben & Jerry's Factory, Cabot Cheese store, and the Lake Champlain Chocolate store! If that weekend wasn't relaxing enough, we decided to go to the beach on Tuesday!

Of Course we had seafood for lunch at the beach but for dinner Mike had a great idea to make grilled pizza!

Well, that's where I've been and what we've been up to! So thankful to have an amazing husband and happy we could celebrate and remember our wonderful wedding day!

We even got some love in the mail from our families!
