Boston Part 2: Cape Cod



The weather could have been nicer for us, but it didnt rain, and from where we came from, that was a bonus! It was a great time down the Cape. That is what it always was for me growing up, "Going down the Cape", even now, that is what it is. So here we go with the pictures. The first one just tells ya where we were, Its a scrapbooking thing in me, You write where you are in the sand, it tells it all!






Next Picture, is Me and Hope, She was the only one that went to the Beach with us on our last day down the Cape, Alec was Sleeping since he had woken up so early to go deep sea fishing, He didnt catch anything, But Brian did, he caught a Shark that he had to throw back, and a bass that he got to keep, Alec didnt seem to mind that he didnt catch anything, and I think it was what I wanted it to be for him, A life long memory.
The water was so very warm, it felt so good on the feet!


Isnt this fabulous? I want this house! I love this house! I want the view that this house has! I dont care which house in the picture, I would even live in the light house, I just want to be there!!! I love This picture!!!











ME At Cape Cod!!!! right near that FABULOUS house!!!













Ok, this picture has a story to tell, I was holding Brians Hand cause he kept putting his fingers over my head, and I wanted a good picture, and we were already on our way to being very intoxicated. Coleen ( my cousin) and I drank a good size bottle of Absolute, and then added a few beers to that, pictures were taken of the drunk fest, but I cant show them here, lol. We had a GREAT night of talking, catching up, and laughing, So much laughing went on with the two of us , it was truely a great night, and the fact that I do remember the night, I must not have drank too much!
All in All it was a great time, we shared many memories of Our Grandmother, shared some tears, shared secrets, and made more memories for the next visit to share when we drink way too much, way too late into the night, just the two of us!

It was a great Vacation, I loved it all!

Boston Part 1: Fenway Park


Can I tell you how Amazing this trip was?? IT was AWESOME! the day at Fenway was insane, it was so awesome I cant even begin to tell you how great it was, but I will try, so Lets Begin:


This picture, Alec and I stood in the street, and My Cousin did as well, to take the picture of us. Why did we stand in the middle of a busy Boston Street you ask? The CITGO sign in the background is Infamous , when ever you watch a RED SOX game from Fenway, you will see this Sign above the green Monster, IF you have never noticed it before, you will now , trust me.






I dont even have to tell you where this picture was taken, But I will, Outside of Fenway. Those green doors open and that is where you enter if you enter from the front. IT was a glorious site for the eyes, let me tell you! Alec was Amazed, as Was I, even though I have been there before, IT was a long time ago , I went countless times when I was a tween , but it is very different to go with your son and see it as an adult.






Inside Fenway!! Alec took this picture of us, the blue wooden seats in the back are the original from when Fenway opened in 1912! ( we learned that on our tour, lol) we sat in them too, and they were very hard, the seats that we sat in for the game were much more comfy.











A nice lady took this of us, that is the Green monster. The problem with this pic is the lighting, if anyone can fix this for me, please email me and I will send it to you. IT is a great picture with the Monster behind us, it is a picture to be cherished forever.








while the game was going, I took this one.







Do you see that score? We were a sad bunch at Fenway till the bottom of the 5th. where you can see we took the lead, It was AMAZING. Just AMAZING. we got two runs with no outs and had the bases loaded ,and Big PAPI came up and the very first pitch , WHAM.. a GRAND SLAM!!! the park went Wild, we went wild, it was insane! it was insane, I yelled so loud, High Fived the guy in front of me, it was awesome, that game was the best, nothing compared to it! we went on to win, 10-5, it was awesome!
Ok, enough for tonight, I will update tomorrow night about the rest of our trip!

Happy Birthday Sam!

Sam is 5 today! He had a great day too! We had his birthday at Chuck E Cheese, ( fun for him , not so much for me)! But its his day, so I let him party his heart out at his favorite Party place. Here are a few pics:

The girl in his picture is Jules, Who he told today " I love you Jules" awwwww how sweet, Her daddy gave Sam some pictures that Jules has been making for Sam, and one says " I LOVE YOU SAM LOVE JULES" she painted it for him. Isnt that just the cutest thing? they met in pre school, and they havent forgotten one another. They will not go to Kindergarten together, but hopefully they will stay friends.

And his Birthday cake, Even though I am the red Sox fan, Sam likes the home team. And as we speak, The home team is winning and Sam is watching the game.

Ok, off for now, I have a project that I need to finish.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAM!!!!
