In brief we moved three thousand miles across the country to the great state of Massachusetts, Dave by land, me by air. Dave started his Masters program in International Econ and Finance at Brandeis University and has been busy busy.
But we've had some fun too.
We visited the great American, Paul Revere's, grave.
And his house.
And his statue.
We visited Henry David Thoreau's shanty.
And let him hold our baby.We swam in Walden Pond. Beautiful and so warm!
We saw a free symphony at the Shell, an outdoor performance venue in Boston!
And won a ward pie baking contest! Well we didn't win. Ok, so we didn't even place, but we did enter and that makes us winners in my eyes! It was a "Sugar Cookie Apple Pie". We didn't have enough pie crust to cover the top so we made sugar cookie dough and covered it with that. I thought it was bomb and ate three pieces.
We're trying to get our apartment together and once we do I'll post some pics!
Jessica, I can't get over how beautiful you are. And just had a baby! Holy cow..You can't even tell. Your little family is so adorable. It makes my heart melt.
