It's no surprise that having kids throws wrenches into how you live your life. Sometimes they are wonderful wrenches, though. Here are a few holidays that are so much better now that I have kids.
New Year's Eve
With kids, you...
Love the spookiness of Halloween but not into the "jump out and scare you with a chainsaw" aspect of haunted houses? A ghost tour is right up your (dark and scary) alley! Typically based on history, these walking (or trolley riding!) tours bring you right to the site of true life hauntings! And what is more creepy than that? Check out one of these haunted tours in Boston this Halloween season!
The holiday season is upon us, and the sparkling lights of Christmas will soon be aglow! Christmas tree lightings are happening all across our beautiful city, so bundle up the family and celebrate the holiday spirit!

It is well known that New Year's resolutions seldom work out (80% of people do not keep them). So how about we consider something different for this year's transition from 2019 into 2020?

Halloween has come and gone, and that means we're moving right into what many consider to be the happiest (and often busiest) time of year — the holidays. Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and soon the kids will...
Maybe trick-or-treating in your neighborhood on Halloween night doesn't work for your little ones. Or maybe your kiddos want extra chances for treats this year! Fortunately, you can head to a variety of safe, well-lit locations for trick-or-treating in...
My oldest was just 3 months old his first Christmas. I thought it might be a great time to practice elfing, so my husband and I purchased an Elf on the Shelf, gave him a name, and started the very short-lived tradition. It didn’t take long for us to realize this was not going to work out.
