Introducing Henry Arthur + Nursery Tour

On October 24th, during a full moon, Henry Arthur Capalbo decided to join our world. At that moment our lives were forever changed. No one could ever prepare me for the rush of emotions that would follow his arrival. It’s impossible to explain, and I won’t even try. I will say love took on a whole new meaning - not only for this new person, but also for my little family. Andrew and I have always felt lucky to do this life thing together, but that night took everything to another level. I remember looking at Andrew and just being so grateful for him my heart could explode. Look at this little life we created.

Happy Fourth of July!

The Fourth of July has always been one of my very favorite holidays. It's smack dab in the middle of summer (actually more of a kick off to summer here in New England), and it just has an overall happy vibe.

Laid Back, New England Summer Entertaining

As a little girl, my New England-bred parents (who had been transplanted to Tennessee right around the time I was born), packed up our suburban every summer and drove up the eastern seaboard (sometimes with a boat in tow, sometimes with a dog, and always with four kids with far too much energy for a 22 hour drive) to escape the oppressive southern summers. We instead replaced them with magical New England ones.

Nantucket Strolls with Vineyard Vines

There are so many reasons to love Nantucket. Some are obvious (hello gorgeous beaches!). Others are more of a feeling. And those? Those tend to be my favorite. It doesn't matter how many times I hop on a ferry to that little island 30 miles out to sea I always seem to get lost in all the magic that resonates on every cobblestone. So simply strolling the streets of Nantucket always ranks as one of my favorite pastimes when we visit.

Electric Moon Peony Farm in Rhode Island

Little Compton might be my favorite little corner of Rhode Island. I don't like to mention it much, because I'm afraid the secret will get out - but it's really just so special. Mainly because it's so untouched by tourism, and time really does seem to stand still. Drives through Little Compton include miles and miles of stone walls crashing into the sea (that's a little dramatic, but it's kind of true), farms, beautiful homes covered in weathered shingles, quaint little town centers and that old school New England charm that truly makes my heart sing.
