Off to see the Family!...in Connecticut!

My mom's entire side of the family lives in Connecticut. My stars do I love them! Especially the most adorable Papa in all the world!! Brad and I haven't seen them since the wedding, so we flew out there to visit! We stayed with my cousin Jenna, who lives a few houses over from her mom (my aunt) and Papa. We got to spend Wednesday night through Sunday afternoon with my family. I missed them so much! We went to the beach, slept in, relaxed, played a million games, and ate some delicious Italian food. Boy am I thankful that I come from some Italian heritage...#yummo.

Thursday ~ We slept in, relaxed and enjoyed a peaceful day. It felt amazing to just relax and pretty much do nothing. It's been too long since we've had one of those days!

Every morning...DD coffee and these little faces!

 That night we all met at my Aunt Diane's house for Pizza Frites...my favorite!! Later on that night my fam surprised me with a little Master's graduation party! How sweet :) ...complete with cards and a Cannoli cake!!!! I love being in an Italian family! Wine, cannoli cake and lots of laughs. Perfect.

Friday~ We slept in (yeeees) and then went to the beach! Even though it's not a southern beach, it still felt great to see the ocean! After the beach, we cleaned up and went to our favorite Italian restaurants. Delish!
