Tips for Visiting the Mystic Aquarium

May 4, 2017

My kids love aquariums. No matter where we go, their first question is always “is there an aquarium?”. We were trying to make some Spring Break plans and the girls said “can we go back to the aquarium in Baltimore?”. While we love Baltimore, we were there this year and I wanted to go somewhere new. I had heard great… Read More

Summer Vacation Deal at Four Seasons Orlando

April 12, 2017

We’ve vacationed at Four Seasons Orlando twice now. Both trips were wonderful and I would highly recommend the resort for families with children of all ages (our kids are 7, 5, 2 & 1). Even our youngest, Miles, who was only 9 months when we visited a few months ago, had an absolute blast splashing in the pools. If you’re… Read More

A Chance to Win a Stay in a 14th Century Scottish Castle

February 15, 2017

I love to travel. I have a very (very, very, very) long travel bucket list, but up at the top of that list is to stay in a castle someday. When we were traveling in Ireland, our tour guide pointed out some of the castles that you could visit and stay in. I think it would be like stepping back… Read More

Family Ski Trip: Mount Snow, Vermont

February 9, 2017

Tom and I have been saying since Maggie was born: “I can’t wait to take a family ski trip”. We’ve been lucky enough to go to Vermont with family a few times, but the kids were too small to ski. This year we were ready to have Maggie and Alex try ski school and let Tommy try a run or… Read More

Learning to Ski at Mount Snow

February 1, 2017

Having our kids learn to ski is something that is important to me and my husband. We both enjoy skiing and it’s something we’d like to do as a family over the years. We both decided that having them learn from lessons or a ski school was also very important. We wanted someone to teach them the right way and… Read More

Family Travel: The National Aquarium

January 19, 2017

A few months ago we visited the National Aquarium for the 2nd time. We first visited a few years ago when Maggie and Alex were 4 and 2. They absolutely loved it. Maggie has been asking to go back ever since. Baltimore is the perfect distance for a weekend getaway for us, so a few months ago we traveled back… Read More

The Madeline Tea at Bemelmans Bar

November 24, 2016

This holiday season I wanted to take Maggie and Alex into New York City for tea. I looked around and discovered there is a Madeline Tea at the Carlyle Hotel this time of year. The girls love the Madeline books and it’s one of my all time favorite books series too. When I booked the tea, I had no idea the… Read More

Where to Wednesday: Apple Picking & The New Graco Extend2Fit

October 20, 2016

I love fall outings. Sometimes as fall approaches it feels like there are not enough weekends to cover all of the great activities in the area. I think fall is the prettiest time of year in the Northeast, so even the drive to where we are going is enjoyable. This past weekend we traveled to one of my favorite fall… Read More
