Honeymoon in New England

For our Honeymoon, we decided to fly to Boston, rent a car, and then explore the New England coast south to Connecticut. We had wonderful weather the entire trip and created more memories than could possibly fit in this blog. But, here are a few pictures of our adventures:


BOSTON- What an amazing city! Joseph and I both were very impressed. For such a big city, it has a remarkably friendly and relaxed personality.

-Faneuil Hall, built in 1742 - the birthplace of the Boston beginnings of the Revolution.


-The Hancock Building - Much more impressive in person, many beautiful buildings reflect in its windows.

NANTUCKET- We had more fun in Nantucket than any other place on our Honeymoon. It was such a beautiful, relaxed place filled with ocean influences. Of all the places we saw, this would be where we would have loved to stay and build a life.
-A sleepy boat in the harbor, representative of the entire island.

-Joseph's real home: Pirates Alley!

-The gorgeous lighthouse at Brandt Pointe... Very private location, perfect for a picnic!

-The bicycle: Nantucket's preferred method of transportation. In Joseph's words, "more fun than I've had since I was 10." The only better way to view the island is from the bow of a sailboat.

NEWPORT- The sailboat capital of the United States. The town itself was disappointing, but the boats were all we could have wanted. Sailing was a real dream come true for us, and has left us craving to be back on the water soon!



-I guess we just couldn't share!
-Just one of the many beautiful ocean views from Newport's coastal drive!

Our Wedding

Well, the big day finally came and went. Joseph and I "walked the plank and took the plunge" on Monday, May 28th, 2007. Our union was witnessed by our families and a few close friends. The ceremony was outside on a dock next to a lake, and the weather cooperated perfectly for us!

The reception followed inside the adjoining lodge. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful way for us to start our lives together, and are eternally grateful for all the support of our friends and families.

I will add pictures to this post as they become available.

Around Town




Before Joseph moved to Cincinnati, he came to visit and I showed him some of the sights around Cincinnati...
