The pandemic delayed our 15th anniversary plans by a year. Allison and I had plans last year at this time to go and see Gabriel Iglesias at Foxwoods. Gabriel is one of our favorite comedians and I saw that he was coming to Foxwoods close to our 15th anniversary (well within a couple months, so, close enough). I had also received a gift card from Nintendo for a campaign I had done around Ring Fit Adventure. The gift card was for any spa that I wanted so I looked up the spa at Foxwoods and had them get me a card for that spa. But before we get to the adventure ahead we had to drop the kids off with my parents for the weekend so that we could have a kid free weekend away.

We drove the kids down to the Cape this morning and then we headed home with the intention of having lunch at Evelyn’s Drive In. I like to get there every couple of years or so to get a seafood platter because their fried food is incredible. Also, it is right on the water so the view is excellent as well. We stopped in and got a couple of cups of chowder and a seafood platter. Everything was cooked to perfection. It is also a place that has both New England Clam Chowder and Rhode Island Clam Chowder so both Allison and I were happy with our favorites.

We got home and then went out to see the new Marvel movie, Shang-Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings. I have been looking forward to seeing this for a long time and was really happy with what I saw. It was a fun movie and I cannot wait to see it again with Eva. We saw her best friend there and she was sworn to not provide and spoilers to Eva.

King Richard’s Faire Returns to Celebrate the 40th Season in Carvershire

We missed out on King Richard’s Faire last year because of the pandemic. This year we won’t be able to go to Carvershire because I have to take all my remaining vacation time to prepare for my black belt test. However, you do not have to miss out on the fun of King Richard’s Faire because it is returning for the 40th season of fun and festivities! We will get ourselves back to the Faire in the 2022 season, though. The kids love it there and so do we. More information about the return of the Faire below.
