I almost can't believe it's been five years since I walked down the aisle and we said "I do," but here we are! Our five year anniversary was on Friday! Last Wednesday we went to a favorite dinner spot in Central MA. We then celebrated Labor Day weekend by heading down the Cape with my sister and her husband (plus E and our combined three dogs). Since our renovation is underway, how fitting is it that the 5th anniversary gift (traditionally) is wood?? I was joking today that my anniversary …

Our Harvard Square Staycation
When we initially talked about our renovation (and living with our families), we also talked about taking a staycation here and there. I don't know why we haven't until now, but last weekend we stayed in Harvard Square (in Cambridge, just outside of Boston). It was so needed, and I want to plan another soon!

When T and I started dating, one of our first dates was in the Bristol Lounge for their chocolate/dessert buffet! Four Seasons Boston Suites I was recently invited to view the brand new …
Farm Hopping
This weekend was a little rough, I won't lie. Eleanor is getting 4 teeth at once, so she has been fussy and upset. She isn't sleeping as well as she normally does, and she's definitely coming down with a cold, too. (So much UGH.) I'm feeling slightly under the weather as well, so we're just a hot mess over here. BUT Sunday we went to the adorable little town where my mom lives in Central MA, and we drove to the next town over to do a little farm hopping. Living in a much busier area now, I …
