When A Fall Wind Blows…

It gets messy. (Swipe🍁)

Outside, from Inside…

We’ve been reconciling ourselves to “inside-days” again after a long, beautiful summer outside.
Sparrow, always from best seat in the house.

Fall so far. Cape Cod.

As the Season Changes…

We wrapped up our back deck for the season just before the rain today and have officially moved to this side of the house. At least for a few more weeks we can enjoy life outside; coffee at sunrise, warm autumn afternoons, then winding down the day with a glass of w**e at sunset.

The weather is always unpredictable here, but so far fall has been beautiful! Sharing some glimpses of time spent on the farmer’s porch these last few weeks!

Practice Makes Perfect…

It’s Sparrow’s birthday week, he will be 2 on Wednesday!
(We seriously can’t remember what life was like before him!)

If he’s not swimming in the salt marsh or staring down bunnies on the front lawn, there is no place he would rather be than right here, King of the Castle, on our front porch.

But it wasn’t always that way! (Swipe to the end!)

Postcard From July…

I don’t think we have ever had a busier July! In between construction projects, guests and just summer adventures we did enjoy some quiet moments, but it’s hard to believe July is almost over.
It will take me at least two posts to share!

From sunrise til sunset, we spent every moment we could on the deck Mahoney's Garden Center

Our guest room was in high demand, the whole month it was filled with my favorite people! Boll & Branch

In July, the roses and hydrangeas create a headboard/backdrop in here Boll & Branch

We live here…

A little recap of our 2026 summer glamping event.
What started as a post-college graduation get together for Nathalie and her friends (Covid, they were all sent home for their last few weeks of senior year and never got to celebrate together) has become an tradition.

It is such a joy to reconnect with these lovely people, watching them all spread their wings while their bond to each other remain strong. The effort they all made to get to Cape Cod in July is no joke!

And here we are…all together again last weekend.

So often I find myself thinking “I need to do this or “I need to fix that” and hosting a party like this definitely gives me that push to get things done.
And my Virgo-self, always striving for perfection, can sometimes distract me from the bigger picture.

Remember this-There is absolutely no better way to find perfection in your home than to fill it with your people!

(Sharing some highlights.)

By Friday, all 16 guests had arrived! They used and enjoyed every inch of our home.

We find that batch drinks are always the easiest for groups this size. Our summer go to is a limeade with Philly-made Stateside vodka.

Behind the scenes!

It wouldn’t be a party without local Cape Cod oysters from the Clam Man. We served 100 of them!

We put some of the guys to work, and they quickly became pros at shucking.

Sparrow hated all the attention…

The Wig set up on the back deck and got the party started! We tried not to pay too much attention to the darkening sky…

G came home from NYC with a plan to cook Panuozzi (Pizza sandwiches).

And they didnt dissapoint!

In true Cape Cod form, in weather changed on a dime.

So we quickly moved to Plan B, and set up the entire party to the covered porch.

We found in years past that a playlist can sometimes fall short. Having a professional who can read the room and match the vibe, from appetizers, to dinner, to rain storms, to sunsets, to late night, was essential.

The rain didn’t dampen the mood!

Hosting can be stressful at times, but my best advice is to not stress the things you cant control. When you’
