Tuesday Tidbits – 308

  • This cape scarf looks perfect and so comfy for airplane travel.
  • Luke says “Happy Fall”!
  • We’ll be heading to Sicily, Italy for Christmas so naturally I’m already thinking of everything I have to pack for the kiddos and myself. Another thing on my mind – how to handle “Santa”. We’ll be staying in an Airbnb so we can definitely do the whole milk and cookies thing, I’m talking about the present thing. Ava is 4.5 years old so at the prime age where the magic of Santa is everything and the concept of Christmas presents is at its utmost peak. I think I have settled on packing several small wrapped presents (like this) for her to open on actual Christmas day and then will have her big Santa gift and maybe some other presents ready to open either before we leave on our trip or after we come back. (Luke being 16 months is in happy oblivion, so emulate what I do with Ava for him). Any advice or thoughts on this?

  • This dress would be so versatile.

Rehoboth Beach Recap

Well, we saw and we conquered Rehoboth Beach a couple of weekends ago over Columbus Day weekend! Since Rehoboth is pretty close to D.C. – it’s on the Delaware shore, about a 2.5 hour drive from D.C. – it’s a no-brainer for a road trip with or without kids. It has always been on my travel bucket list, so it felt good to check this guy off!

Have You Ever Been to a Psychic?

Up until my New York City trip with my friend Katie earlier this month, my answer would have been no – I had never been to a psychic nor had any desire to go to one. I have several friends that love going to them for fun and while it sounded like a cool experience, it never interested me enough to actually go see one. (I did accompany my mom to see one on the Atlantic City boardwalk several years ago, but I didn’t actively participate).

Tuesday Tidbits – 304

  • My Fall Wardrobe Inspiration
  • Have you ever heard of Birdies shoes? Katie wore a pair in NYC and my eyes were immediately drawn to the stylish and comfy flats (she let me try them on). Ya’ll know I live in flats, so I promptly bought a pair last night with the promo code she gave me. I’ll let you know what I think of them!
  • Gorgeous flowers
  • We’re heading to Rehoboth Beach in Delaware for the upcoming long weekend. We have never been here before, but it’s always a local beach trip I’ve wanted to take. If you have any restaurant or kid-friendly activity suggestions, please leave them in the comments!
  • I’m still holding out hope for my Nats to advance tomorrow night. We can do it! #stayinthefight

Tuesday Tidbits – 301

  • As you may have seen on Insta, the fam and I were in Omaha this weekend for my friend Meg’s wedding. Here’s probably my most favorite photo from the whole weekend. Stay tuned for an Omaha recap next week!
Minutes of being husband and wife.
