I’m Back!

September 27, 2011


What a dream the last few days were. Our trip to Mass. was fantastic! We were so surprised how big Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket were. Oh my goodness, the countryside!! That’s what surprised us the most. Of course it was cute house overload, everywhere you looked were the most darling shingled-style homes. I told Chris, this is like Pinterest, in real life!

I have a lot to catch up on and have to run to pick up Gertie from the dog-sitter, so I’m just going to leave you with these teaser photos I took on Cape Code in Chatham.

Chatham…talk about THE perfect place to spend my birthday!! *sigh*

    I love the brightly coloured doors against the weathered shakes. I prowled around Cape Cod last spring and had a great time just soaking it all in. I'm looking forward to another post.

    Oh how beautiful!! I can´t wait for more Nantucket pictures! I miss the island so much! It´s a lovely place to summer in! I wanna go back there as soon as possible!

I’m Erin and I am obsessed with the color turquoise. I started this blog to collect inspirational photos I find of fabulous rooms that feature all of the lovely shades of my favorite color. For even more turquoise, visit my shopping blog Everything Turquoise!
