    Default So Excited!!!

    So, we made our choice of where to go for our anniversary weekend away. We're going to Salem, MA and (as long as we can still get a room) are staying in the Inn at Washington Square, which is supposedly haunted. (Probably not, but I love the concept!) I've always wanted to go to Salem and never have been, so I can't wait!!!

    I save up cash in an envelope titled Birthdays/Vacations, so we'll be using that. We've never been away for our anniversary before. Actually, with the exception of two overnight trips for family weddings, we've never been away from the kids before, so it's a big deal. I'll miss them like crazy, but it will be really nice to be able to have some special time with dh.

    Especially in Salem!

    Change in plans. Every single B&B in Salem was booked. I get it. It's October. So, we're staying a half hour away in Rockport at The Tuck Inn. It sounds nice and is within driving distance of a lot of cool things, particularly for me, Salem!

    Rockport is beautiful, and my mom grew up in Salem. Enjoy
