I don’t really have much to post for you guys on the house stuff. I have been cleaning, but I don’t really think that warrants a post. I have kind of run out of steam with the unpacking. I think that is mainly due to me being down to the boxes of “I’m not really sure what is in here and it looks like a hodge podge, so I’m just not going to touch it”. Those boxes are currently sitting on the front porch and have been since moving day.
So instead of house talk, I am going to share our photos from Boston! This was our working honeymoon. Andrew and I both presented papers at the Popular Culture Association conference in April, we went out there for that and decided to make an extended trip of it. I think he and I travel pretty well together, but he wasn’t very happy when I woke him up at 3:30 to be at the airport at 5:00 AM. Luckily, his mom is always amazing and takes us to the airport when we leave at crazy early hours. I can’t help that these are the cheaper flights people.
So here is Andrew protesting being up that early…
We got to Boston around 2:00 that afternoon and caught the T to our hotel. I thought it was going to be a pain in the butt to do public transportation to the hotel while hauling our bag (not that I was actually hauling the bag, this is what I bring Andrew with me for), but it wasn’t that bad. We caught the T before rush hour, which was good because our hotel was pretty much on one of the main stretches in Boston. We got there and all I wanted to do was sleep and find something to eat. We checked out a seafood restaurant because who doesn’t go to the east coast without eating fish? It was amazing! If you are ever out east and come across Legal Seafood it is amazing, and you MUST eat there!
We were in Boston for a total of 6 days and during that time we were all over the place. We took the T to the harbor and saw the sailboats, went out to Bunker Hill and climbed up the almost 300 stairs to the lookout tower (while climbing these, I might have made a few threats to Andrew), saw the U.S.S. Constitution, took a water shuttle taxi thing, J that is a technical term folks, did some shopping (who gave Filene’s basement permission to close before I got out there), took a trip out to Harvard and spent several night eating some amazing pizza from the grocery store next to the hotel and watching red box movies on my laptop (man was I glad Andrew talked me in to taking it with us).
So, without further ado, here are the photos from our trip:
This is from the top of the lookout tower at Bunker Hill

Yes, we climbed that tower.... I wasn't happy about either
The USS Constitution
Sailboats!
Oh yeah, the day we left Boston was the day the Boston Marathon was being run, so it was a little busy in town and this was a block away from our hotel. This is the finish line for the marathon.
I probably wont be on to post again for a couple of days now. Tomorrow night I get to go work my awesome 2nd job, doing design work for wedding flowers. I am working with my amazing wedding coordinator helping with wedding flowers. I have to say, this job is pretty much amazing!
Saturday and Sunday I think we will be busting our humps on the walkway and other flower bed on the side of the house in the backyard, so you know I will post pictures of that when we are all done to show off our hard work.
Hope everyone has a good Friday and a happy weekend, sounds like it is supposed to be a nice one!
