liking what you do is happiness via seejaneblog

enjoy the weekend! here in massachusetts, our kids are starting their february vacation. they have the next nine days off! one of my myla’s best friends is flying out from utah to spend the week with us, so we are having a stay-cation. it’s good to have visitors because it encourages us to get out and sight see! any recommendations for things we should see or do around boston that we have maybe not done yet? do you have any plans?
