Fun, Fun and more Fun!!!

Hi everyone! Well, Will is still gone. (sad face with a pouty lip) I have less than a week until he gets home!!! I can't wait to see him again. This is gonna sound super mushy...I like to hang out with him. I love playing games and going shopping or just sitting on the couch. Being with him is the best feeling in the world and I miss him. OK. I'm done!
In Will's absence, my fabulous sisters and Mom came to visit me! This was Mama and April's first visit to Boston! I think that it is safe to say that everyone had a good time. They flew in on Thursday night and I took them to one of our favorite restaurants, Kowloon's! It's a great Asian place. Then we went home to hang out and make plans for the weekend. We started Friday with a yummy breakfast. I made everyone omelets with their choice of ingredients. The photo to the left is us all ready to go. Amanda, Me, April, and Mom (Candy). We had to dress warm. It was beautiful out but still really cold.

First Stop: Salem, MA




There is tons to see in Salem. Witch Museums, historical sites, and homes of famous writers. That was a plug to get people to visit me...shameless, I know!
We bought a postcards for Jake and Hunter and mailed them from Salem!
After much walking and lots of picture taking, we drove back to my apartment where we waited for the bus to take us downtown.

















We shopped and eat until dark and then headed home!! We were totally beat so we hung out for awhile and then went to bed. We went back to Boston on Saturday to see Fenway Park(I'm fanatical about baseball) and then all of the other must sees.


The Old North Church...
















Occasionally there is a fresh market downtown!!! Produce, fish, and meats, all kinds of good stuff!


And of course, we want to the Temple. For all you South East Texans, it probably looks a lot like the Houston Temple.
We went lots of other places too...but I think that this post has gone on long enough!! It was sooooo great to have my family here. We are super close and the distance is driving us all crazy. Plus, it was nice to have company while Will was away.
