May.

May was a whirlwind of a month. Nearly every day was packed with travel, company, or end of school activities.

We started the month off with a trip to the Outer Banks in North Carolina.

We planned this trip with friends months ago when we were all in dire need of a getaway (in the thick of housebuilding and night shifts at work haha). It turned out to be a pretty fabulous idea and the kids are still talking about it.

A week after the Outer Banks, I was on my way to Louisiana to spend a few days with friends and family.

I came home to all the fun and craziness of the last couple of weeks of school — spring concert, themed days in class, field day…

We also had lots of family and friends staying with us this month… which meant many fun, exhausting days and late nights. We packed in Six Flags, Boston, the rose gardens in Hartford, and two trips to urgent care for strep and ear infections 🥱🤪

When the fun and craziness was finally over and we skidded across the finish line into June, Darren and I went out on our back porch to sit in the sunshine and quite literally fell asleep on the floor 😆

So, here’s to June being a quieter, slower month at home with my people 🖤
