Margie!!

I know I'm really behind on my pictures, posts, etc... I'm TRYING though!!! We have lots of fun house stuff on the horizon that we're trying to get accomplished by Christmas so it's sucking up a ton of time!!

Anyway, this past weekend, Margie came out to Boston for her annual visit. She is the one friend that really pushes me to explore more of New England as she always wants to see something new when she comes out. This year, I introduced her to the great states of New Hampshire and Maine! On Thursday, we took a quick trip up to Kennebunkport, ME and enjoyed a beautiful Fall day up there. We walked around the port, looked at shops, took pictures and just enjoyed how quaint the little town is. We drove near Walker Point AKA The Bush compound along the beautiful coast on our way out of town.

Friday she explored Boston, eating at her fave restaurant on Newbury Street - Stephanie's, did some shopping and mastered Boston's train system while I sat at work, blah! That night, we met up for dinner with some friends followed by a "Spooktacular" trip to Salem, NH for haunted houses and rides. Super fun night!

Saturday we lounged around before heading to the Harpoon Brewery in Boston. I love a good brewery tour but they're even better when they keep your attention by pouring you unfiltered beer from their barrels! :) That, followed by a ton of tastings on tap had us beyond "happy!". That night, we got a little crazy at our house with friends, pizza and a ton of 80's music!!!

Sunday was filled with football, a quick photoshoot at Bentley College to test out my new macro lens, our nieces and nephews Halloween parade and lounging at home. Its funny, when she comes out to visit I feel like she lives with us so it's always hard to see her go. I love that she's made her yearly trip a tradition, we always look forward to it!!

We hope you had as much fun as we did Margie - love you and miss you already! XO
