We had a blast in Connecticut at our friends (and cousins 😉 ) house!
We got back home at nearly 4 am April 5th. So we’re slowly catching up on lost sleep not only from then, but also when we were at the S’s house. We stayed up late talking every night 😀
We just love their stone walls!! They’re everywhere! 🙂
Maybe sometime (in our spare time…ha ha) we’ll post about the whole trip. maybe. Whenever we do find that spare time it ought to go to posting about the East Trip 🙂
Anywho, enjoy this bit of CT 🙂
more pictures from CT.

It’s beautiful!
You’d better post about your trip!! 😀 I was wondering what’s taking so long!!! Connecticut is very woodsy! Kind of like some parts of Missouri and South Carolina.
By the way Madison, I’ve decided to be a good bachelorette and do as you told me. 😀 Heeheehee!!
~The Naughty Spinster~
Ps. Hey! If I’m a Naughty Spinster, does that mean I automatically turn into the Well-Grounded Spinster? LOLOLOL!!!! 😀 😀 😀 Sorry Kelsye, but I think I’ll take your name now!! Thank, m’dear!!!
No, no, no, Hannah, that’s not fair! Don’t do it! Kelsye was in on it first……..
Play nice now. 🙂 I don’t mind if you keep the Naughty Spinster, though, that’s fine.. (fits you well- hee hee!) though I don’t know if naughty spinsters are well grounded.
😀
Kelsye: In case you didn’t see the comment, I said:
Instead of taking the common name of “spinster” (no offense to any of you who go by that name, of course…..it’s just that we have about four of them now!), you should be the Bachlorette. 😀 More unique!
I looked in the thesaurus, and I couldn’t find any other terms for old maid. So it looks like we only have those three names to choose from between us all…….. So there is apt to be some grappling, being the dignified old maids we are!
LOL! Now, now my dear old maids…do behave yourselves!!! hehe!
The laughing Spinster 😀
The well grounded spinster is here to stay 😀 Sorry Hannah:) Is there really already four spinsters. Let’s see……hummm…….There is: Jessica- the Flying spinster who loves to eat brownies over the white house:), Me- the Well grounded Spinster b/c I like to keep my feet on the ground not in a plane. Hannah- the naughty spinster, I am still a little stumped about this one……lol, Someone is Spinster number 4 and I am not sure who it is. I think that Hannah should be renamed the Flying Spinster ( sorry Jessica). Skydiving? really!!! I will have to say that this well grounded spinster is glad to have all two feet on the ground instead of plunging toward the earth at a billion miles a hour!!!!
So who gets to be the Bachlorette? Inquiring minds want to know! 😀
amen on the skydiving comment……I don’t mind flying in a plane, but you try to make me climb a high(ish) tree…….. *shudder* But what do you expect from someone who can’t even swing on a playground swing without getting seasick? 😀
Lol! Well, the skydiving Hannah is different from the ‘naughty spinster’ Hannah 😀 I told the skydiving Hannah that I was jealous that she got to go up in a plane, but not so jealous of the way she was coming down, lol!
The Flying Spinster 😀
Oh, I see how this works!! I get all the bad names, huh? Well! We’ll see about that, m’dear!! Of course naughty spinsters are well grounded!! Did you think they get off the hook without sitting in the corner for 10 minutes???!! REALLY! You need to get a guidebook on Spinsterhood! Well, I don’t have one but I know!! So there! ATTENTION ALL SPINSTERS!!! I have my thesaurus right here with me as I type! Here are some other dignified names you may use: bachelor girl, bachelorlike 😀 , old-maidish, old-maidenish, midenhood, maidenhead (isn’t that one strange?! 😀 ), single woman, lone woman, spinsterish, and spinsterly!! there you have it!!
That works. So are you going to go by the name “Spinsterly” now? 😀 Hee hee!
No, Madison, I am most assuredly not using that name!! 😀
No you didn’t, Jessica! I’m going to call you The Lying Spinster! Just take away the F in your other name, and voila!!! Hee, hee!! 😀
No, no, no…the Skydiving Hannah is different from you is what I meant 😀 I told the skydiving Hannah that…not you 😀
The wish-she-was-flying spinster 🙂
I love the pictures!!! you NEED to do a post of all your pictures from your trip!!! guess what! Hannah is not going skydiving (at least not today..) it was cancelled because of bad weather. I am sssssssssssssoooooooooooo mad you all can’t come tomorrow!!!!!!!!! well see you all soon!
-Emily
You’re right Emily! I’m NOT going skydiving now or any other time!! Bad weather has nothing to do with it! Lol! 😀
I want to go skydiving someday 🙂
YAY now we’ll have regular posts again!!
BUT!!!!! Now you have 2 trips to post about!! It been half a year since you went east, and you’ve done like maybe 3 posts??? 😛 HURRY UP!!
Amen, sister!!
sorry for being rude about your posting abilities.
is a spinster someone who wants to stay on the ground?? You know, this is the funny thing, I don’t like getting somewhere way up high and looking down, then I’m scared of heights. but then I want to go skydiving and bundgy-jumping someday!!! 😀 funny me
Amen 2, sister!! 😀
Hannah – are you talking to me? 🙂
Yep! 😀
I LOVE your pictures! You HAVE to do all of them! It is so cool to see that people live that way! When did you get back? How long where you gone for?
~Beth
We were gone for almost 7 days 🙂 Got back April 5th
i can’t wait to see more pictures….. =) i am still looking forward to more east pictures =).
see you tomorrow (hopefully)
-me
I may or may not be the forth “spinster”….Cause a while back I blogged as “The Sewin’ Spinster”. Is that what you’re talking about? I love the woods….my favorite spot in the world! Toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many spinsters around here!
“The Sew What Spinster”
Welcome to the club, Vanessa!
Jessica, you might have to do an entire page on your blog called “Join the Spinster Club”. 😀 Really, I’m kidding. No, wait, I’m not. We don’t have goats anymore. Aw, you know what I mean…..
LOL! That sounds like us!
“I’m kidding!”
“You are?!!! Is it a boy or a girl?!!!”
“Oh brother! You know what I mean!”
😀
I may need to put a Spinster page up, just to keep track of who is who, lol!
Jessica
I think it really was your brother saying that!! Lol!!! 😛
Ok – Firstly, where in Connecticut were you, if I may ask? My family is from the middle of the state, so we are there often – it looks just like… well, Connecticut.
Also, Secondly, can I be the Spidery Spinster? Is there room for just one more old maid in this dignified group? Please say yes!
We were about an hour east of Hartford 😀 And you may most certainly join our spinster-club 😀 Welcome my dear Spidery Spinster 😀 Lol!
The Flying Spinster
I think you should just post all of those “unfinished” posts that I know are sitting in your files! 🙂
Anyway, I was going to write a really long comment, but seeing as we’re leaving in 5 hours to come to YOUR house, I should probably get some sleep! By the way, I think your readers need to see pictures of your adorable “nephew”!!!! 🙂 Come, come, I KNOW you have LOTS! hee, hee, hee!
This is not fair, I want to be a spinster too! Couldn’t I be “the married spinster?” Hmm…. I know it’s an oxymoron, but please???? 🙂
Missing you all so much (good thing I only had to wait 6 days before leaving to come see you)!!!
HUGS!!!
“The (hopes to be) Married Spinster” 🙂
Hehe! “The Married Spinster”…that is a fun one! Of course you may join my dear! 😀 I can’t wait to see you in just a few hours–yay, yay, yay! 😀 And can’t wait to see our ‘nephew’, too 😀
Er…yes…the posts! Lol! Actually, I know one is in the works about our trip out your way…and I can’t wait to share all our wonderful pictures!
Hugs my dear Married Spinster! 😀
Jessica
Yay! Another Spinster in the club! “Married Spinster”, I love it! That’s a keeper!
Jessica, the page might not be such a bad idea after all! It’s brilliant! Why didn’t I think of that?
I think I answered my own question. 😀
I am going down the comments and I see Spinster after Spinster popping up, and I laugh harder every time one appears. 😀 I can’t wait to see what all you other un-announced spinsters show up as!
I think though, that I am the only old maid. What’s up with that?
Don’t say it, Naughty Spinster, don’t say it. 😉
I was thinking the exact same thing!!!! I was laughing soo hard and thinking, “Boy, what did I start by having the announcement?!!” 😀
Don’t say what, my dear Old Maid? Yep. You’re the only one, the only one, the only…. I said it all right!! 😀
It’s like I said before…being an ‘Old Maid’ must be more dignified, or something 😀 tee, hee!
The Flying Spinster
Vanessa, really!!! Actually, if I may interject, Vanessa is the 5th Spinster. Here is the order: Jessica (The Flying Spinster), Madison (the OldMaidison and the Other Spinster), Kelsye (The Well-Grounded Spinster), Me (The Spinster 4, The Sleuthing Spinster, and the Naughty Spinster! I get the most, I get the most, I get the most, I get the…….), and Vanessa is The Sewin Spinster, The Sew What Spinster, and the 5th one!! Lol! There we have it!! You know what, Jessica, you should put a whole new button on the top of your blog called, “Spinsters!”You could even advertise! “Are you 12 years old and above? Are you the eldest or eldest girl in your family? Are you a girl? Do you behave like a dignified girl, or want to be one? Then, good news! This club is for YOU!!!! If you qualify for one or more of the above requirements, then we will officially welcome you to the wonderful world of SPINSTERS!!!!!!! Join soon!! The free offer lasts only until you’re 25!!!! So hurry up!!!”
Lol! Now that is quite funny! Especially since most girls wouldn’t be considered ‘spinsters’ until after 25 😀
Jessica
Yep! That’s right, but it’s still fun! 😀
The list just keeps gettin’ bigger and bigger all the time, m’dear!!! Now we have 7 spinsters!!! See, I was right! You should make a button!! 😀
~The Naughty Spinster~
I do think the spinster page is an AWESOME idea,Madison! You really should do it Jessica…What a lot of Spinsters there is turning out to be. The Naughty Spinster is a Purrrrrfect name for you Hannah! I can just imagine you,m’dear! 😀 I do hope I turn out to NOT be a spinster after all, but if I do….I won’t be the only one! 🙂
You don’t have to be a spinster to be a Spinster! 😀 After all, we DO have “the Married Spinster” in our midst, you know! 😀
Oopsies!! Just contradicted m’self with m’title! I am now to be called, The Irish Spinstress. I know, I know…..I made up the word. I like it though! 😀
That’s really cool to be gone for so long! Was it warmer there? I would not want to go some where colder for a vacation!
~Beth
Hey! Where’s my credit? I’m the one who thought up that idea in the first place!!!!! You guys (I mean, girls) are Stealing Spinsters!! All right everybody! I’m changing my name this instant!!! My name will be, The Silly Spinster. You never know, I might change it again soon, depending on what responses I get from you sweet spinsters!!
Wow, cool rock walls! Sounds like you’re having fun!
Anna, are you the one who commented on my blog and asked for our new address? (I know too many Annas…..) I’ll write back to you when we’re all settled in. How’s that?
Yes! it was me 🙂
That sounds good! Thanks!
Anna
Hey Miss Spinster 5…..You are blaming me? I gave you a chance for that name first! hahahaha 😀 You are making me go crazy changing your name so much! Are you still the “Naughty Spinster?”
I am talking to you on the phone right now too…
Luv you all!
What a name!!! Nope, I’m not blaming anybody! Boy (or girl), the way we’re going, we all need to go to Spinster school to learn how to behave!! 😀
You guys(Spinsters) are hilarious!!! I read the story on how you guys came up with that name, very funny. Not bad for some old Spinsters! Hee Hee………. Oh! And you Irish Spinstress (A.K.A. Hannah) I agree, you guys do need to go to spinster school!
