For the last two weeks of July my sister-in-law, her husband and their munchkins rented a house on Nantucket and were so generous as to invite their extended family to come visit. You don’t have to ask us twice!! They ended up with a full house the entire time they were there, and we are all so grateful to them for sharing their vacation with us!
Mark, the kids and I all ventured down there at different times, due to work and the fact that my little guy’s summer baseball team progressed all the way to the championship game (but unfortunately taking place when we had hoped to head to Nantucket.) My older two spent all week on the island and had such a wonderful time with the whole family.
When baseball finally ended, Sean and I joined them on Friday for the special occasion of my niece Sophia’s 9th birthday. Isn’t she the cutest???
To celebrate this sweet and spunky little lady, my brother-in-law rented a sailboat to take us out on Nantucket Harbor.
Have you been to Nantucket? How about we all meet up for a girl’s weekend there??
And have you visited any special places this summer? I’d love to hear about them!
{Thank you to my sister-in-law Jen for many of the photos I stole for this post, and for letting us invade your family vacation….can’t wait for next year! :)}

I have been to Nantucket, and I have dreamed of retiring there. My family refuses to join in on my plan. Your trip looked magical and the perfect way to spend a summer.

I have never been to Nantucket Lisa but I'm sure I would love it! We visited WashingtonDC for the very first time a few weeks ago and it was fantastic. I'm definitely going again!
