2020 was a weird year for everyone. Weddings, vacations and all kind of events were being cancelled left and right. It seemed like there was nothing to look forward to. But luckily myself, my sister and our friends were still able to go to Martha’s Vineyard for our annual trip. Unfortunately one friend didn’t feel…

Like many people in January of 2020, I was looking forward to all the trips I had planned the year. I was supposed to go to Atlanta in February, Kansas City in March, Dallas in April, California in May and Florida in August. But just like everyone else, my plans were foiled due to the…

In 2019, our annual trip to Martha’s Vineyard started with an old shirtless man doing pull ups on the ferry at 6:00 am – so it was a pretty good indication that we’d have an eventful trip. We spent a few hours at the beach when we first got on the island. After freshening up,…

I started CrossFit in October 2016. I had (and still have) a love/hate relationship with the sport but one of my favorite things about my journey with CrossFit is all the amazing people it’s brought into my life. I met my friend Alex at the gym. We had fun together during classes but didn’t know…

I’ve lived on the East Coast my whole life. I love New England and can’t imagine living somewhere else but I’ve always felt drawn to the West. Jarrett and I really wanted to do a road trip, so in 2019 we decided we’d do the Pacific Coast Highway from San Francisco to San Diego. My…

When I first met my friend Colleen, I was drawn to her energy and enthusiasm. When I got to know her more, I found out we both had a love of running, pizza and beer. It was a match made in heaven. And to make things even better, she ended up marrying one of Jarrett’s…

I think everyone has that one friend – the friend that’s always down for anything – the big things, the small things, the boring things, the seemingly unimportant things that end up becoming a favorite memory. I have a few friends that fit this description, but the first to come to mind is my best…

** sorry for the low quality pictures – these were taken with an older camera ** 2013 was a big year for Jarrett and I. We had gotten our dog Carter in June of 2012 and it made us realize that all three of us would be happier with more space that a house would…

When summer 2018 rolled around, my sister Lauren and I were counting down the days to our girls trip to Martha’s Vineyard. It would be our second year going and we fancied ourselves ‘pros’ now. This time, it would just be six of us going instead of the original seven. Our trip started at about…

Growing up in New England, I’d always heard about Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, but had never been to either. They seemed like vacation destinations for the wealthy. I didn’t have intentions of ever visiting as I didn’t know much about either island. However, an opportunity presented itself that has now allowed me to be an…
