weekend snapshots [03.04.16]

Looking back, it's hard to believe that all these photos came from the same weekend. Early on, we were blessed with stunning 70 degree days, which quickly evolved into rain, then snow. Spring Anyone? Regardless, it was an amazingly relaxed weekend. Time was spent on morning runs along the Charles River and evening walks on the hiking trails. We squeezed in lots of work + brunch at our favorite spot. I can't pinpoint doing anything out of the ordinary this weekend, but that's what made it perfect.

I was being totally lazy this weekend, so hopefully you didn't mind all the iPhone photos. Looking forward to productive week.

Happy Holidays: Snapshots [12.14.15]

Blogmas Day 14

Happy Monday Everyone! 

I'm linking up again to share a few snippets from the weekend. My to-do list was nowhere close to being completed, which I will have to make for up this week. But it was a fantastic and festive weekend that included lots of holiday dates with the husband, so all in all, I'm counting this one as a win.   

{Friday} 

Friday night, we spent quite a bit of time walking around the city, taking in all the Christmas lights and holiday decor. We decided to pop into one of the chocolate shops here and we were not disappointed. They had every truffle flavor that you could imagine, they even had bacon and beer infused truffles for Husband. And the smell when you walk in the door makes you never want to leave. I think this is what heaven will be like, except no one can gain any weight from the pounds and pounds of chocolate they eat! 

We spent the rest of the night eating chocolates and drinking cocoa, which led to the best kind of sugar high! 

{Saturday} 

This felt like the laziest day because the only time we left the house was for a quick trip to the post office. But surprisingly, lots got done. We managed to get some of the house clean and I spent the majority of the day baking holiday treats to send off for family and friends. 4 dozen cookies, 2 trays of muffins, and a few pounds of frosting later, the favorite recipe of the day were these peppermint marshmallow creme sugar cookies. 

{Sunday} 

 Then on Sunday night, we finished the weekend off with the best date night! Boston tops the list as one of the best ballet companies in the world and we caught their rendition of the Nutcracker. Loved their hilarious twist on this classic! This night included lots of champagne and lots of laugher! And yes, we totally took photos with some of the toys. We are big kids! 

More details from our night here. 

Christmas is obviously my favorite time of the year. If doing Blogmas doesn't prove that, I don't know what will! I'm loving all the memories that Husband and I are creating this year. After years of marriage, this is the first time that we haven't been long distance. We finally have the chance to enjoy the holiday season in it's entirety and we are taking complete advantage of this opportunity. 

How did you celebrate the holiday weekend?

Had an amazing weekend and it's about time I check in with a few snippets. 

SnapShots of September

SnapShots of California

well it's another monday.....

 I don't mean to be ungrateful, but after a week off, going back to life as usual is always a bit difficult. If you follow me on insta, then you may have already seen a few snippets of the amazing week that Husband and I had in California. Definitely worth flying across the country for! Today its back to reality, but I'm so excited to spend the rest of this week recapping all of our adventures (mostly because it's going to allow me to relive everything). For now, I'm just sharing a few highlights from our trip.
Happy Monday! 

Snapshots [05-15-15]

Lately it seems that every week is bursting with things that need my attention...to-do lists to complete, errands to run, patients to treat. Every Monday, I feel a little overwhelmed wondering how everything is going to get done because the days are flying by way too fast. How are we already halfway through May? With all this chaos, it's more important than ever to remember to pause and acknowledge all the little things. And Friday seems like the perfect time to do so....on that note, here are a few Snippets from my week. 

SnapShots from Canada

Dropping in to share some special moments from our trip to Canada. We spent a few days roaming all over Toronto and Niagara Falls. It was the trip of a lifetime for us to see a Natural Wonder and explore a new city. I'll be back with details from our time in Niagara, but for now, here are just a few snippets!

One of my favorite pieces to read from other bloggers are "Life Lately" posts. I find it so interesting to see all of the pieces that make up someone else's experience. You guys know that I love sharing snippets of my own life, so I thought that it would be fun to make this into a little series. Just another opportunity to appreciate the beauty of the small moments that turn into big occasions. On that note, here are just a few snippets from the past few days. 

Snapshots of Easter 2015

I hope that everyone had an amazing Easter Holiday! I don't have Bright Monday off so unfortunately a good bit of my Easter was spent flying and driving back home, but it was worth it to have the opportunity to visit Tom in Boston this past weekend. I'm just popping in to share a few snippets from my Easter. 

Snapshots from Christmas Day 2014!

Blogmas Day 26

'Twas the night before Christmas when 

all through the house, not a creature was 

stirring except this little mouse....

Because no matter how old I get I am always beyond 

excited about Christmas Day. As I've grown up, it hasn't lost 

its magic

 for me and I hope that it never does.
