  1. So much good stuff going on! Love all the family and friend time. The throwback pictures are amazing. There are few things cuter than kid Halloween photos!! So many good things to come- thanks for taking us along for the ride :). Have a great Wednesday!

  2. Yes, it's been all the Taylor Swift around here too! Those sliding shorts are awesome! Sam would have LOVED those when he was playing baseball. Your date walks make me think we need to incorporate those into our life as well. I love walking and I love Dave so it just makes sense to do two things I love at the same time!

  8. What a fun post!! I wondered if you could tell me more about the cute necklaces you have stacked up in that pic where you’re in a gray sweater? Thank you!

  9. @Kristen sure thing! I will actually do a separate post all on these- one of my favorite things :) They are Lola pendants and made by a local company to us. Website is lolacompany.com There are so many pendants and chains to choose from- they do bracelets too- those are on my wish list :) My first two pendants I picked were Nantucket (one of my favorite places) and an octopus since I love everything to do with the ocean. One of my friends gave me the compass for my birthday too! I think when I get a bracelet I will probably do an initial and maybe the dragonfly charms. The separate white gold necklace is the David Yurman cross and my BFF gave it to me for my birthday last year!
