Costa Rica was one of the most family friendly places we have ever been. My husband and I first talked about wanting to plan a trip to Costa Rica way back when we were first engaged. Well 12+ years and 5 kids later, we finally sat down to plan the trip. I was nervous at first to take all of… Read More

Costa Rica Books for Kids
Reading books about where we’d travel this summer was a lot of fun and also gave me some sense of “organization” with summer reading. As most summers come to an end, I think: “what did we read?”. Today I’m, sharing our list of Costa Rica books for kids. For a little background on our travel reading lists: A few years… Read More
Cape Cod: 10 Reasons We Enjoyed the Bayside Resort
It’s been a few years since we took the kids to Cape Cod. It’s been a place I have fond memories of since I was a kid. The Cape is so family friendly and a great spot to unwind together. We loved our last trip to Cape Cod and we were very excited to book a trip back this year…. Read More
Nantucket Books for Kids
A few years ago when we were planning our trip to Italy, I started collecting children’s books about the different spots we were going to visit. From fiction to Italian language books, it’s how I prepared the kids for the trip. When I was trying to think of summer reading books for all of the kids, I thought that it… Read More
Finally took a little trip to Villanova to show the kids where I went to college. ♥️
Lots of questions the entire time, ranging from "where did you practice basketball" (apparently Tommy thought when I was cheering for "my team" I literally meant the team I used to play for)
to whether or not @lderose7 @kattttp & @cjorr02 all lived in the same dorm because we are family 😂
Can’t wait to see which one of these crazy kids will be a Wildcat someday 🙌🏼

New travel territory for us: 1st hotel stay for a kid’s sports tournament (Alex 🥍)
Kids are beyond excited… apparently the coolest hotel amenity ever is having friends from town in your hallway 🙌

Happy Anniversary @byrne3 😍
A little travel story on our anniversary….back when we were first engaged, Tom came to one of the work events I was hosting & ended up winning plane tickets Costa Rica. We were so excited & tried to plan the trip ASAP….
Well it took us 12 years to finally book, the tickets had long expired & we brought an extra 5 travel companions BUT like most everything these past 12 years: it was crazy & fun. 😊
Costa Rica Itinerary on the blog! 🦥

That end of summer mood.

We left a trip early today. It's something we haven't had to do for a long time.... and being at one of our favorite places, @woodloch made it sting a little more.
But it was scary hearing updates from afar that our town was flooding & a not great update on our house from a neighbor meant we had to bolt.
So after a long day of disappointing the kids, packing up, traveling home & then emptying an entire basement (that was stuffed with all of our belongings because of renovating)....
I'm reminded we are safe & healthy and our house is in much better shape than many right around us.
Trips can be re-booked, belongings are just "things" and family to squeeze tight is what matters most. Family.... and incredible neighbors. ♥️
In the next couple weeks, one of them turns 10 and the other 18 months.
I'm having a hard time believing it. Two big milestones in my eyes. ♥️
Also... I think Teddy looks exactly like Alex did at 18 months. 👯♂️

A cast is most definitely not getting in the way of Miles’ summer fun 🤩
Lots of mom worry over traveling out of the country right now, bringing 5 kids to a rainforest, wild animals, snakes, health passes, tests, you name it... all went perfectly smooth & the trip was way easier and safer than expected.... 24 hrs back home in the USA & a fall from the monkey bars sends us to the ER 🤦🏻♀️
Week 1 was a cast that could not get wet (not cool in the summer) but this new cast is 💯 👌🏻🙌🏼 & just in time for some Jersey Shore waves 🌊
Super Teddy, part 2. 🌴
