boston!





pictured above is, yes, an AUTHENTIC Boston Cream Pie! We had it with our anniversary dinner @ Legal Seafoods - YUM YUM!


We had such an amazing vacation away. It was certainly a busy week, so nice to get away and do fun things besides work!

Just some of the highlights were:

  • DUCK tour (bus tour around the city, then the bus converted into a boat and we also got a tour down the Charlestown River)
  • Billy Idol concert- this was Bobby's idea - I was NOT all that enthused to go but when we got there I think I might have even had a better time than Bobby!
  • Walking the ENTIRE Freedom Trail
  • Going to see "Wicked" - A musical about the truth behind the story of "The Wizard of Oz" - I absolutely LOVED LOVED LOVED this! And I don't typically like musicals!
  • Heading to Salem and seeing the museums there
  • Red Sox game @ Fenway Park


    Yikes no wonder we were so tired when we got home- we did a lot!

When we got home Saturday night (we landed about 9pm) we decided it would be fun to go see a movie, since we weren't picking up Mason until the next day, so we went to see "The Town" - it was CRAZY to see scenes in the movie that were the exact same spot we had walked.

We had such a wonderful time in Boston; it is our new favorite city! We both agreed that we even wouldn't mind living there, although I'm sure living there is a lot different from visiting.

Mason had a great time with his cousins- thanks so much Angel for taking such good care of him while we were away!

It sure was hard to go to work Monday morning!
