When in Paris... getting macaroons for us and for our German neighbors who took us to the airport, will pick us up, took our trash out, and bought us groceries since all the German grocery stores are closed on tomorrow (Sunday). Our neighbors are the best!

Goodbye (only for now) Andersons! ❤️Then a shameless plug for my favorite English bookstore. Worth every $ for a few new books and a quiet car ride for the drive to the airport. 😂

With Carol, Travis, and kids in Newport. ❤️ Our forever friends that we met through the Navy.

Happy to see Liz and Hannah in Jamestown. So glad to see them settled and established in their new home and town. Friends from Stuttgart. ❤️

An amazing day hanging out with two wonderful friends Michelle and Carol. Nail party and dance off with Michelle, swimming with kids, music DJ requests for my husband ( he says “I will bump your request to the top of the list for $1”) , and adding a picture of my favorite amazon delivery man (my husband). @oeil

So happy to see Michelle and sons today in Newport, RI. We haven’t seen them since living in Japan with them, so great to catch up with them. @oeil ❤️

Happy Father’s Day to my amazing husband James. We spent the day in Boston together. Lucky to have a wonderful father to my kids. A heartfelt Father’s Day to my amazing dad Jody and step-dad John. Thank you for both being wonderful role models to myself and your grandchildren.

Yesterday, touring MIT and Harvard. Love them pretending to knock on the admissions door at MIT. My oldest dreams of going to MIT. This is something my step-dad John was always so good at. Even on vacation he believed the more college campuses kids see and set foot on, the more we talk and encourage higher education and work towards those goals, the more likely kids will go. I have memories now that I cherish of him dragging me along and touring multiple college campuses on trips (along with those not so glorious moments during evenings of helping me in high school with calculus and physics homework). Proud to see my kids recovering from jet leg while exploring these campuses. We love Boston, especially the Cambridge area! C was born in Rhode Island. We miss living in New England and are happy to be back to visit Rhode Island and Boston area. ❤️

When your second child tries to pull “these Harry Potter jelly beans”... you say, “No way! Those are awful!”! #notarookie
