Despite a promise to myself that we would travel less this summer, it has been yet another whirlwind of road trips and cross-country flights culminating with one last jaunt to Seattle next week for my cousin's wedding (recommendations welcome!). Even though it's been a fun and exciting few months, I'm ready to spend a little more time at home this fall to enjoy the feeling of being in one place for more than a week.

As a kid, my mom taught me to write thank you notes when I received gifts. After my birthday and Christmas, I remember the feeling of my wrist cramping up from the process. Today, I still try to write thank you notes for every gift I receive, but I've also learned that saying a formal thank you for other occasions is a gesture that can go a long way.
Coming off the heels of a week-long vacation is never easy. The transition back to the real world can be jarring and downright depressing, but we're traveling home from Martha's Vineyard today so I'm just going to go ahead and put all that off until tomorrow, k?
For now, I'll be reminiscing on the week I spent with Anel, Boots, and my family.
Our trip to Nantucket last weekend was short but oh so sweet. As I mentioned earlier this week we were there with the amazing Lands' End team to see the Boston Pops perform on Jetties Beach to raise money for the on-island hospital. It was a magical evening full of music, a fireworks show, endless glasses of rosé, and an appearance from Kenny Loggins!
