A Few of My Favorite Things...

We recently got back from a long-weekend getaway, and this picture really sums up the experience for me. It was one of those all-tourist vacations; we didn't try to travel to all the historical sites or explore the depths of the city like we usually do, and it was so relaxing! I'd forgotten how amazing beach vacations can be. And Cancun truly has some beautiful beaches. The surf knocked me over a lot, but it was warm! How very un-North Shore Massachusetts! We had planned the trip in the fall, for a grand birthday celebration/reunion that Jason's friend's wife had arranged, but the timing couldn't have been more perfect. We had gotten engaged the weekend before, and had a glorious few days of sun to celebrate.
