First Official Summer Weekend


Happy Monday friends! Coming off a seriously perfect summer weekend here! Two full days of fun and lots of sun! 


Friday night, Gary and I had a date night courtesy of RedBreast Whiskey & ChefsFeed Indie Week at Whaling in Oklahoma. I haven’t been to Whaling in Oklahoma since they took over the space from what was once 647 Tremont – a restaurant I went to quite a bit  when I first moved to Boston! The meal was absolutely incredible all paired with different whiskey drinks from RedBreast. I don’t think Gary has ever been more excited to attend an event with me!


Saturday we checked a trip off our Summer Bucket list and went to Newport for the day! 

 You can’t see Sophia, but thisstroller fan completely entranced her!


We spent a little over an hour at the Cliff Walk and they have made so many improvements since the last time we were there two years ago! Not quite stroller friendly with the stairs, but you make it work! 

We saw there was some construction in the downtown area, so we decided to take advantage of the great weather and head to Castle Hill Inn.


We waited and played on the lawn while our table was ready and our friends came to join us lunch! Our first time there was two years ago and I have to say, I think the service was so much better this time – the amazing weather didn’t hurt either!

 That would be strawberry all over her mouth!


This was Sophia’s first official beach trip & jury’s still out on if she’s a fan! She may be more of a pool girl, like her mom! I have to say – going to the beach with a baby is not nearly as relaxing as they would have you believe! I brought magazines as if I’d actually get to read them! 


If this weekend was any indication of what the rest of the summer brings, I can’t wait! Hope you have a  great start to the week!

    Looks like such a fun weekend to kick off summer! I'm with Sophia, I'm more of a pool girl, too. I had to laugh at your IG story about taking a baby to a beach is as relaxing as running a half marathon haha! You got some great pictures though and I love Sophia's outfit! Happy Monday, BIana!

    I love your colored dot shirt, so cute!!! Going to the beach with a baby or toddler is most definitely not relaxing!!! But it is so much fun getting to see the sights through their curious eyes!
