Andy and I had such a fun time last weekend to celebrate his brother Ben's wedding on Martha's Vineyard. We flew to Boston Thursday night, and my sister Victoria picked us up. We got to bed around 1am and woke up by 6am to drive to Woods Hole to catch the 9:30am ferry! And we barely made it! Phew. Andy's mom and stepdad, Ron, picked us up when we got to the island and we went straight to our rental house to change for the rehearsal and luncheon...

On Saturday we enjoyed a lazy morning, which is not at all the pace we've gotten used to out here! (Busy busy busy and full days and nights) I got to go for a run after 8am and didn't sweat to death! :) We walked to Edgartown to grab breakfast and spent a few hours strolling around town, taking pictures and eating an ice cream cone. It was lovely.

What did my ears hear as soon as I got to your blog? The Pride and Prejudice soundtrack! That is only one of my favorite movies, and was the beginning of my obsession with period dramas. They are practically all I read or watch.
ReplyDeleteMy sister and I went to MV on our trip last week. We stayed in Vineyard Haven but took the bus all around the island.
