Wes and MM were very excited to hear that Ashley (Wes's sister) gave us tickets to the Winter Classic hockey game in Boston on New Years Day as a Christmas present! We packed up our bags (not too many - so we didn't have to pay to check one!) and dropped Charlotte off at Magi and Poppos and we were off to Boston! Ashley and Perry (her NEW fiance!) joined us up there on New Years Eve and we rang in 2010 Boston style!
New Years Day was the game... and this just wasn't any ol' game. This was the Flyers and the Bruins on FENWAY! Yeah... they put an ice rink on Fenway Park! It was incredible! Drop Kick Murphys performed, James Taylor sang the National anthem, a stealth bomber did a fly-by, and the Bruins won in overtime!!! Crazy day of fun!
After the excitement of the game day festivities - we took in Boston for the next couple days as true tourists! Wes and MM's anniversary is January 3th, so we were lucky enough to stay through then and celebrate. We went to Cambridge - tooled around Harvard, went to the Sam Adams brewery, and did the whole Freedom trail on foot... just to mention a few things! We came home on the 4th and while we loved Boston we missed our little girl! I think she was happy to see us -- I think she grew while we were gone!
