Finally! After two weeks apart, Rusty is finally here. He did not have an easy time getting to Boston either. His flight was delayed, and then the airline didn’t have his bag. Apparently only about 50% of the bags were loaded onto the airplane in Denver. Frustrating. He called to tell me it would be…
Josh—yesterday I went bowling. We had lots of fun. 15-82-85. (The score) I can’t wait to go bowling again. (I can’t believe he left out the part that he won!)
One thing I really love about Boston is all the access to green space. There are gorgeous splashes of green amid all the high rises. The Emerald Necklace, The Fens, and the Esplanade. Today, armed with our scooters, we set off to explore the Esplanade. But first up, Flour Bakery to try their famous sticky…
Today was a good day in Boston. It started with lunch at Darwins with Kristin, who I have known since our days at Forbes Elementary. It was so fun to catch up, talk about life, and relish in the joy of being with someone who has know you since you were 6. I hope I…
We were in need of a little down time, so we decided to take the day off on Tuesday. The kids enjoyed sleeping in, playing on their ipods and lounging around. We hit the park, and then had dinner at Shake Shack. It was a great way to reset and give our bodies a little…
I was instructed by Blake to make every sentence a different color. Josh: I went to the food trucks and got pizza and the market. (I assume he meant we also went to the market. He didn’t actually eat the market) We were a big mess.
The Penguins and the Giant Sea Turtle were the runaway favorites at the Aquarium today. The seals and the octopus contended for second place. Everybody also really liked touching the stingrays. After the aquarium, we weren’t quite ready to call it a day. It was about 72 degrees and perfectly sunny, so we decided to…
The sweet little darlings are tucked into bed after a long day and the door buzzer sounds. The kids stir. Shhh….nothing to worry about, go back to sleep. Mom buzzes the delivery person up, cracks open the door and quietly accepts her reward for a day well spent. The giant peanut butter cup cookies taste…
Let’s talk about grocery shopping. #1—I am eternally grateful for shopping delivery services. Peapod is the one I’ve been using in Boston. If you are prepared, everything can be delivered straight to your door. #2—I am never that prepared. #3—THEN you have to make multiple stops at CVS, paying exorbitant prices for much needed items…

We were all pretty disappointed in the Farmer’s Market portion of this Open Market, Boulder’s is about 1000 times better. But, the food trucks more than made up for it. What fun! It was so hard to decide what to get. And…
