Contractor Got Started

The contractors took down the broken medallion and old pendant light from the front bedroom, removed all the speakers and surround sound, and pulled all the gross cords and cables from along the original crown moldings.  We have got almost all of the fixtures ready for them and sitting in the front room!  We are so excited!

South End

On the Beck’s last day we stayed around our neighborhood.  We had lunch at The Buttery and showed Becky a place Baxter would love.  We loved having Becky visit!

St. Patrick’s Day

Well, we didn’t make it to the parade this year.  Last year was fun, but this year we walked all over Boston, Faneuil Hall, the Waterfront, Fort Point Channel and the South End.  PLUS, we got to see Irish Dancing Girls!

Little guy Dancing Irish Girls:

Impressive Dancing Irish Girls and awesome song:

Maine Day Trip

We took a day trip up to Maine, stopping at Federal Jack‘s (the birthplace of Shipyard Brewery) for lunch.  We swung by the Bush compound to give the Beck a look-see, then headed up to Freeport where they have turned their historic buildings into outlet stores that maintain the old exterior appearance.  As we just “met” Violette, we had a good time visiting the children’s clothing stores and shopping for little girl cuteness. There are a couple pictures at the end here, showing the new clothes Becky helped pick out for Jeannette, that Mama Jan bought.  Thanks guys!

Meeting Violette

Today was the big day we got to find out if we are having boy or a girl!  It was so fun that Becky was in town so she could be there to find out with us!
