Chris' oldest brother's family lives in Boston and since we are only an hour and half from them right now, we zipped on up there after school on Friday.
We hung out with Paul Revere...
We hung out with Paul Revere...
...and devoured cannoli's in the Italian district.
The boys tried to figure out how to climb inside a massive macaroni noodle. (And considered launching me into it.)
We spent Saturday afternoon on the Boston Commons, listening to some Big Band swing,
... eating a gourmet picnic dinner...
... playing with Lucy...
...and waiting for "Shakespeare on the Commons" to start. We saw Othello, which was thoroughly depressing, as all good tragedies are, I suppose.
By far, our favorite part was the time we got to spend lovin' on Lucy. We hadn't seen her since she was about three months old so it was like meeting a whole new person.
Thanks Kip and Beth for a fabulous weekend!
