Thanksgiving 2015

Nothing like the addition of even more fried food to the menu (in this case, the dessert course) to make an already great holiday even better. With warmer weather, great company and a whole second turkey to enjoy the next day, it was a great time all around!

Family Fall Fun in the Country

Another month, another family birthday! Pop Pop hit another year older, and we celebrated during a crisp fall weekend in the country – plenty of chocolate items on hand to make it that much more exciting for the little ones, and booze for the adults!

A Hershey Halloween

Since one chocolate factory wasn’t enough for C, we hit two in two weeks with a trip to Hershey Park in the Dark. There were rides, trick or treating and even a zoo, making this chocolate-themed experience hard to beat!

A Tale of Two Weekends Part Two

So another weekend, another very different experience. This time, Megan and Brian headed to Atlantic City for some time kid-free with friends, while Colin was spoiled rotten by his grandparents. Who had the better weekend? A toss up for sure!             

Colin’s First Camping Adventure

This was camping at its finest. Pool and sports by day, BBQ, smores and movies under the stars by night. Colin and his cousins made it the whole night outside, and can’t wait to do it again!

MV – Best of the Rest

The Vineyard has so many great things to do, that it was tough to fit it all in. We had a fair showing to keep us held over until next time! Thanks to our family for a great week!

A Fair Time

An upside to MV in August is the West Tisbury Agricultural Fair, with animals, rides, games and more varieties of fried food than one can count. Here are some of the adventures!

Deck Time Done Right

One of the best parts of a Martha’s Vineyard vacation is deck time. The end-of-the-day-drink-and-munch fest to wind down and prepare for a fun evening ahead. With as many as 7 kids 4 and under around, deck time was not necessarily the most relaxing this go around. But, it was fun nonetheless!

Beach Time – MV-Style

The beach was probably the biggest hit of the Vineyard vacation – nothing like a pounding by some frigid water to keep you coming back for more. We had time rolling in South Beach’s big waves, and relaxing with some dinner as the calm waters lapped the sand in Menemsha. Heaven!
