Today: I woke up like this | Cape edition.
Who needs a vacation alarm clock (set for 3 hours earlier than you desire to wake up), when you have a toddler at the foot of your bed?
I woke up like this. With Grace pinching my toes and yelling, “Hellooooo!”
In an effort to spare the rest of our family the 4:30 wake-up call over the 4th of July weekend, we snuck out for some early morning walks down to the beach. The Cape might be my favorite place on Earth. Except for the place where they make popcorn (I’ve never been to a popcorn factory, but I just know it’s magical).
Not a bad way to start the day.
We covered 3.5 miles on Friday on our own, and 2.5 miles on Saturday with my brother and sister-in-law and their own mini-human alarm clock, my niece.
6 AM pajama parties on the beach are the best.
And with the entire world still sleeping, we had the beach to ourselves and our pick of the prettiest shells.
Any day we are lucky enough to wake up at the Cape (even if it’s at 4 AM), we are lucky enough.
Also On Tap for Today:
- Treat yourself to one of the 12 s’mores recipes from The Kitchn
- Heading to the farm today (we are all about changes of scenery lately)
- Making plans to enjoy some Fun Free Fridays this summer
How did you spend your holiday weekend?

With my pup, I am often walking the neighborhood around 5:30am – 6:00am and I actually think it’s the prettiest, quietest time. So fun that you could enjoy the early morning beach time with Grace.
