The Hamptons | Day Three

On our last day in The Hamptons we went out to Harbes Family Farm for a fun fall day.

Apple Picking!



We have so many apples now we have no idea what to do with them.

After apple picking we ventured into the corn maze!


It was actually so much harder than I expected it to be, but it was so much fun. A perfect way to ring in fall.

We dragged mom a long through the maze.

After the maze we took a hayride through the pumpkin patch.


Picking out pumpkins. Mom wanted this one so bad. She decided against it. She didn't think holding a pumpkin on her lap for a three hour plane ride was the best idea.

Our apartment now looks like fall with all of our pumpkins!

How cute are they!?

Seeester fun on the farm!

Apple cider donuts! AKA the best thing in the entire world!

So much fun on the farm with this fella!

As a lot of you probably already know Ashley and I are obsessed with all things Target. Since we had a car for the weekend, of course we were going to take advantage of stopping. We had two buggies full of stuff. Oops!

Trying to fit everything in the car was a bit of a challenge.

At least the ride home was comfortable!

Back to reality. Back to NYC!



We hope you enjoyed a little look into our fun Hamptons weekend. We definitely enjoyed it!

XOXO

The Hamptons | Day Two

Day two was a very busy day for us, but it was definitely worth it. We started off with a wine tasting at Duckwalk Vineyards.

Why yes we do go to wine tastings at 11:00 A.M. Wine is the best breakfast right?


Across the street from the winery was a small farm that had massive pumpkin patches. I'm pretty sure I acted like a 5 year old child while there. What can I say...I love fall. I just get so excited!


Obviously had to take pictures with the massive pumpkins.


Coincidentally daddy had his "pumpkin" shirt on. He wasn't as enthralled with the pumpkins as we were.

How cute are my parents with their converse! So glad they joined the converse club.

My first time at a vineyard. Many more pictures like this to come in November!

After our wine and pumpkins we drove about an hour out to Montauk, which is the farthest point east on long island. The main attraction is this gorgeous lighthouse.

Forever a daddy's girl!<3


We haven't had a family picture on the beach since Florida in 2009!

Ashley LOVES the beach! She couldn't resist dipping her toes in the water.

DA BEACH!


We stopped off for lunch at The Lobster Roll. This was dad's favorite part of the trip. All he could talk about was getting his lobster sandwich.

It seems I got a little tired on our drive to Sag Harbor.


Sag Harbor is a cute town on the bay. It was so fun to walk around and see all of the local culture.


We took a seat out by the water with our coffee for about an hour. It was so peaceful just staring at the water.


This is probably my favorite picture from the entire trip!

Apparently I'm up for bid! Any takers!?

Before checking in for the night we stopped off in SouthHampton for a bit of shopping. What a gorgeous little town that is.

Stay tuned tomorrow for day three.

XOXO

The Hamptons | Day One

Before heading off to the Hamptons, Ashley, mom, and I went for a nice brunch at Le Pain Quotidien.

On the train going to meet up with our dad!

We stayed in Hampton Bays, at the beautiful Hampton Maid. This was the view from our porch. Such an amazing view. We spent so much time out here enjoying the crisp fall air.





After settling in, Ashley and I wanted to explore the grounds. You all know this turns into a photo shoot for us. Here are a few of our favorite snap shots.






Check back tomorrow for The Hamptons day two!

XOXO

Guess Who Is In Town!

Before we jetted off to the Hamptons for the weekend, our mom came into the city to spend a few days with us!

So excited she is in town. Ashley and I took her to one of her favorite restaurants here in the city, East End Kitchen.


After dinner we put on our face masks, and made Vanilla/Caramel/Bourbon milkshakes. I don't think this look suits us very well!

Since Ashley had to work the next day, I took mom around the city to all of her favorite places. Of course we had to take a matching converse picture! 

We did a lot of shopping, but of course I had to take her to eat at Sweet Green, which is my new obsession. They have the best salads in the entire world! Definitely to try if you are in the city, or Washington D.C.

After a stop in the west village to pick up our favorite salted oat cookies from Milk & Cookies, we stumbled upon the building they use for the outside shot of the apartment in Friends. If you know me at all you know how obsessed I am with friends, so finding this building was always on my bucket list. So glad I get to check this off now.

Later that night Ethan met up with us to go see Once the Musical. This was Ashley and I's 2nd time to see the show, and we are absolutely in love. Definitely a must see for anyone planning to see a show.

Now it's time for the Hamptons!

XOXO
