Jess turned 40 this year, and she wanted to do something fun and interesting for her special day, so her family and Nel's family and Nel's sister-in-law's family all traveled to Salem, Massachusetts. They had a great time exploring, and I wanted to share with you some pictures of her journey to Salem, a place where she's always wanted to visit.
How exciting it was for the girls to go into the cockpit since it was Charlotte's first flight.
Brian took this picture of an extraordinary spider web!
One of Jess' favorite activities was going apple picking at a nearby farm.🍎🍏 Here are the girls burying themselves in a corn kernel "beach."
One night, they came across this Speakeasy bar that had a hidden bookshelf door.
This is all of them at a central park in Salem, and one of the film locations of Hocus Pocus.
The most charming houses they saw, and this delightful purple pumpkin sat on the railing of one of the houses.
Francesca and Mia collected leaves in the stroller.
This white house is another Hocus Pocus sight - Allison's House.
They had a fantastic time on their trip - had a wonderful dinner one night, and went on a ghost tour.

Dang, I was almost done with my comment and I lost it!
Great that the family can explore new places and things together. That was a real spider he found - would scare me to death.
I think that was so cute the girls were able to sit in the cockpit. Also cool to see some Hocus Pocus set sites. I love to go to apple orchards myself. I LOVE that purple pumpkin. Did they see any ghosts on the tour? LOL
Looked like a lot of fun!
What a very special trip for Jess. I would love to visit in that area someday. I went back and looked at each photo at least a couple of times. they are all great...from the girls sitting in the cockpit, to the amazing spider web! This looks like a beautiful place to be right now, especially with all the halloween themes all around. Yay! I am happy you shared this today.
Hi, wow, what a fun trip.
I love the purple pumpkin. :-)
We had our annual pumpkin carving party yesterday, I will blog about it soon.
Love, Carla
They couldn't have chosen a better time to visit! Wow, the last photo is awesome; is it in front of a restaurant? The corn kernel shot is so joyful, and this is a wonderful shot of the cockpit! The purple chair pic is SO cute!!! That one may be my favorite. Eeeww, there is even a spider inside the web!
How wonderful and precious! Family is all!
Oh that looks like so much fun. A perfect month to go. Happy Birthday Jess.
Happy Birthday to Jess! It looks like they had a wonderful time! The girls appear to be having a blast in the corn kernel beach! They couldn't have chosen a better time of year to visit the northeast. What a fun trip!
Fotografías muy divertidas. Se ve la familia muy unida y compartiendo una gran celebración.

This is a great way to celebrate Jess’s birthday. Looks like a great time was had by all. Sweet photos, especially of the little ones, and I saw a place I have never been to. That’s spider web, amazing, and fits right in with visiting Salem and the time of year :) It is prize-worthy photo! Thank you very much for sharing their photos Sheri, a real treat to see. Happy week to you my friend.
Firstly, Happy Birthday to Jess. It’s wonderful they were able to visit Salem. Really nice photos of their family. Looks beautiful there and this is a nice time to see that area with the changing colors on the trees.!I’ve never seen the movie. The only thing I know about Salem are the witch trials. I actually had ancestors who were accused of witchcraft. I wrote about it on my Genealogy blog.
I bet that they did have fun!
Hi Sheri,
The corn kernel beach looks so fun! What a great place to visit for Halloween!!! I bet the kids had a blast! I love all the photos! I hope you have a great week!
What a fantastic celebration for Jess's 40th! Salem sounds like the perfect place for a memorable trip, and it looks like everyone had an amazing time exploring, apple picking, and finding those hidden gems. Thanks for sharing these delightful moments.
Wishing you a great day. Read my new post: https://www.melodyjacob.com/2024/10/ultra-rich-anti-aging-cream-for-improved-skin-hydration-and-radiance.html
Sheri it looks like they had a delightful trip. That purple pumpkin certainly would catch my eye. This is a place that would be somewhere that I would like to visit. Hope you are having a great October day friend. Hugs!
Wow, the last picture is particularly great.
Salem was a wonderful idea for a 40th birthday.
I live in the town next door. I drive through Salem on my way to and from work and also when I go to visit my grandchildren. In fact, I pretty much have to drive through Salem to go anyplace. I'm glad that your family enjoyed themselves. Honestly, it's not my favorite place in September and October. The numbers of visitors is just staggering. If I were going to visit I would go in August.
Happy Birthday Jess!
Great pictures. That spider web is stunning!
The decorations in Salem are well done.
What a fun trip! I have been in Salem, but not at this time of year. Oh a speakeasy too! I recently went to a speakeasy with a friend. The door said "janitor", but a little window opened up and we had to give the password to get in. Did you know during Prohibition alcohol was served in teacups in Speakeasies?
What a fun way to celebrate Jess's 40th!
Sounds like you all had a blast in Salem!
I love that the girls got to explore the cockpit on Charlotte’s first flight—what an exciting experience!
The photos are adorable, especially with the corn kernel "beach" and that cute purple pumpkin.
Happy Thursday, Sheri! 🌹
What a great place to visit and especially in the fall season. Looks like a really good time was had bye all.. Happy 40th to Jess.
They had a great trip. Colorful leaves on a hedge are stunning.
