For Boston, For Boston....

Believe it or not, Matt and I have been married five years...Obviously- that doesn't stand up to the hundred that my parents have been married, but nonetheless, it's pretty cool. So...anxiety and all, we decided to take a small trip WITHOUT Caelan for our anniversary. What better place to go than Boston. For those of you that don't know, Boston is kind of a special place for Matt and I. I think we both lived there in another lifetime or something. Anyway, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and from what we hear Caelan thoroughly enjoyed his time away from his parents. Maybe Grandma and Grandpa Nickels will post pictures from their weekend with Caelan...

Here are some pics from the weekend...

This is the view from our room! We got upgraded to the club level on the top floor of the Sheraton. They treated us really well and gave us complimentary chocolate covered strawberries and a bottle of wine for our anniverary.



Heading to Boston Common...

One of my favorite things about Boston is the mix of old and new on the same corner...


On the fashionable Newbury St.


Popular stop on the Freedom Trail: Faneuil Hall


Side streets in Boston have a lot a character


The waterfront was chilly, but gorgeous!


We ran into some break dancers...


The things they can do with their bodies are amazing...


Yawkey Way...there was actually a game going on when I took this...


Matt bought his usual "trip hat"

It was awesome to get away, but also fun to see Caelan's face when we came to pick him up...Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for taking care of our little man while we were away!

It was truly a pleasure - although I could stand to wait a few more months before the temper "displays" get into full swing. No...really...he was VERY good & great fun.
