Andy had a conference to attend in Boston this week and I tagged along. My mom and Paul watched Ben Tuesday through Friday and we’re SO grateful for them! It wasn’t a “real” vacation, Andy was in seminars 9-4 and I worked from the hotel…but it was definitely a fun get away, just the two of us! We had the evenings to explore Boston and had a few adventures.

The first night we were there, we of course got seafood for dinner. Andy ordered a huge bucket of crab. I ordered fish and chips with fried shrimp.

We took the subway and walked a lot!

We visited a few parks and different neighborhoods.

A Boston local in one of Andy’s seminars told us we had to go to a place called Mike’s Pastry. We found it on one of our adventures and bought some of the biggest, tastiest cannolis I’ve ever had. So glad we listened!

Finally, we visited the beach. I’m not exactly sure which one, but it was tucked in a little harbor area and you could watch planes coming in. This is us, attempting to take a nice picture at sunset (which we kind of missed). We also got caught in the rain after the beach, which is slightly less romantic when you have to walk miles back to your hotel :)

Even though we were gone just a few days, it was so much fun to get away. I love hanging out with my best friend!
