This weekend, despite illness, we packed up the babe and the dog and headed to New Hampshire.  Miss M recovered from her horrible cold just in the nick of time and was an angel on the ride to and from Effingham.  We visited our awesome friends Gretchen and Graham and their dogs Happy and Banjo.  Whenever M fussed, we just pointed out the little white dog (Happy) to her and she was all smiles.  She cracked up everytime Happy would give her kisses.  We swam twice in one day in two different lakes, we went out to dinner, we took nice long naps.  It was a great weekend and we’re so glad we sucked it up and went!
