Weekend Getaway


Tyler and I received a wonderful gift on Columbus Day weekend: A kidless adventure!

The boys spent the weekend with grampy and nana Lisa and their 2 boys.  So without worrying too much about them having 7 boys for a weekend including Matthias (whom has never spent a night away from us), we set out.


Tyler and I started our adventure by hiking.  This was supposed to be the Summer of hiking and, although we did get in a few good hikes, we both wanted to do more.  So we took advantage of the fall foliage to hike Bald Mountain on our way to the White mountains.  It was beautiful and didn't start raining until we had hiked up, down, and gotten in the car onto the main road.




After our little jaunt up the mountain we headed through the White mountains and down NH towards Newburyport MA.  Where we spent the evening and next morning walking and admiring the bay, the architecture, and the port city.

It was wonderful little respite from life and Tyler and I both had a great time.  The port was exactly how we imagined it, the hike was perfect, and the foliage beautiful.


Thank  you to Grampy and Nana Lisa, who not only had our 5 boys, but also traded cars with us so that we could drive a 36 mpg car on our little road trip adventure.
