I just got home from the trip of a lifetime. My sweet dad took me to Boston to see the Red Sox play the Yankees. It was sooooooo much fun! You see, my dad is a HUGE Boston Red Sox fan. If you’ve ever seen the Drew Barrymore movie Fever Pitch, you understand that Red Sox fans live and breathe for the game.
But the BEST part about this weekend, was spending time with my dad! I love my dad so much and am so thankful to have had this wonderful weekend with him!
We’ve arrived in Boston!
My dad is a smart man…he takes pregnant gal to eat FIRST THING! We headed to Quincy Market for food and shopping.
Quincy Market is this wonderful section of downtown Boston with stores and people everywhere.
Enjoying my pizza
It’s hard to take pictures when it’s only two people traveling…I’m trying to snap this one myself
We went by to see Cheers
And the next day, we saw the Old North Church…where Paul Revere signaled that the British were coming. Such a cool part of US History right in the middle of Boston.
I know it’s hard to tell…but that’s me standing on the steps of M.I.T….don’t you think I belong :). This school intimidated me just standing near the entrance.
After we saw M.I.T., we headed over to Harvard…this is the Law School
Me at Harvard…with these killer braces…I could fit right in with the freshman…maybe the knocked up freshman 🙂
Andrew insisted my dad take me to John Harvard’s for lunch. I emailed him a picture from our boothe. The food was soooooo good! He was smart to insist.

Look at the name of this restaurant…it’s Shay’s…
Ok…if you’re a girl, other than my friend Lori, you probably won’t appreciate the rest of this post…maybe tell your hubbies to look…I went to Fenway Park and experienced some major baseball history
What we came for…Fenway Park!
Red Sox fans are awesome! It was so much fun to ride the subway to the game with Sox fans and experience the game against their biggest rivals…the New York Yankees! Here we are on Yawkey Way.
The Green Monster…legendary!
Me and Pesky Pole
Thanks dad for a wonderful trip! I love you!!!
And just in case you were wondering what the other father/daughter duo were doing all weekend…here are the three pictures they sent me while I was away:
Don’t look like we’re missing mommy yet 🙁

A baseball weekend with your dad: PRICELESS! It looks like you had a blast! What a cool thing for your dad to do, and how awesome that Andrew and Kensington had a special weekend together.
My pops is a HUGE baseball fan too, and he raised me to love the game. I would LOVE to do a weekend like this someday. Thanks so much for giving me the idea. Now I just need to pitch (hehe) it to dear old dad…

You're right; I DID love the Fenway Park shots! (and just for the record, I hadn't read this post (obviously) when I asked you about the trip yesterday). Duh Lori. Glad you had a good time.
