Our Cape Cod Trip

Well, folks. I'm back. It was a long 10 days, but it was amazing. We had such a blast! My husband is originally from Massachusetts, so it was fun to spend such a long time where he used to vacation. We went with his parents and brothers. They were great to vacation with! We went all up and down the cape, but stayed in Chatham. It was probably one of the most gorgeous seaside towns I've ever seen. Pretty much just like I envisioned it, but better! The weather was beautiful, the company was awesome, and the scenery was gorgeous! And let me just add... my darling girl is an amazing travel buddy! I have a feeling she'll be a jet setter!

I spent hours uploading and editing my photos, so it's only fair to share them with you immediately, right?

Our house for the week! Hydrangeas were everywhere on Chatham 
Just steps from our house. Boats! I also love this photo of Kennedy and her grandpa.
We went whale watching out of Provincetown. It was amazing!
At Lighthouse Beach in Chatham
The Fish Market in Chatham has the most amazing Lobster Roll!
The seals and birds hang out by the fish market. The fish boats literally come up and dump off what they caught!

Out at Hardings Beach
Kennedy, Grandma, and hydrangeas! 
Drinking a Cape Cod on Cape Cod! Out at Chatham Bars Inn. What a beautiful hotel!
The Cape Cod National Seashore. So gorgeous.
Out in Hyannis to see the JFK Memorial (aka the motherland). Cute little town! I can see why the Kennedys enjoyed the place.
Yes, I did make us wear matching stripes for a photo op. What can I say? I wanted a picture of us wearing stripes in front of a light house! 

What an amazing time! Can't wait to do it again.

I have worked several weddings there, they do the weddings in the restaurant right across the street and they are truly stunning events! Glad to hear K was awesome for traveling!! I want to take J somewhere but I am scared! haha. Someday! Adore the stripes in front of the lighthouse...it's perfect!! So glad you had a wonderful and safe trip to MA! If you are ever up here again we should totally try to catch up with the kids!!

I've always wanted to visit the cape - it stems from my deep love for all things Kennedy:) And speaking of Kennedy's, yours is so adorable in those outfits! Looks like you had an amazing time!

BerryMorins Bits & Tips said...

I'm stopping by from Kelly's Korner Show Us Your Life. I'm having such a great time looking at everyone's vacation photos. It's also giving my husband and I some new ideas for places we might want to visit.
As a Southern Mainer, I have enjoyed many lobster rolls over the years. But this one in your photo looks so good!

Kiki Nakita said...

Looks like you had a wondeful time. We went on a trip to New England last October, and spent lot's of time in Hyannis Port then spent some time in Cambridge. Adored Harvard, the JFK presidential museum and all the different restaurants. We'll be back this summer in Rhode Island for our wedding. Glad I found you via KK.

Kiki Nakita said...

We were also in New England last October. We spent most of our time between Hyannis Port and Cambridge. We are going back this year to Rhode Island for our wedding. Glad I found you via KK.
