We got started on working on the house today. We changed all the lights to not be super harsh, institutional-style bulbs. And we changed the cups in our living room chandelier – an inexpensive fix, but it made the chandelier not look so cheap. And we painted a few coats of primer in the front bedroom to cover the red. We are going to use that space to paint all sorts of samples to pick the colors for all the rooms. We are excited!

Celtics L v Suns – 79-71
Fiallen Game 5
The C’s are in a rut. Made it interesting in the third again, but couldn’t keep the W.

Celtics L v Thunder – 97-88
Fiallen Game 4
We got to see Perkins play at the Garden tonight. We miss him so much. People cheered so much for him. During the timeout, they played a whole Perk tribute that was awesome! The crowd went wild and gave Perk a standing ovation. He went to center court and waved to the crowd. It was actually pretty emotional. Jeannette almost cried, but was glad she didn’t, because the Jumbotron people showed a lady crying, and it looked embarrassing! But, again, it was emotional. And the Celtics lost.

Frozen Fenway
We hit up the hockey double header at Fenway today. We don’t follow high school or college hockey at all, but we love Fenway and wanted to see the novelty of a hockey rink set up in the infield. It was SUPER cold, but we had a great time! They moved the game start times up so everyone could get home in time for the Pats game! (Of note, there were no Tebow fans there.) Go Pats!

Celtics L v Bulls – 88-79
Fiallen Game 3
Like many games of late, the C’s start wicked slow, finally make a big run to make it a game (and exciting) and then lose. We had a great time at the game though, mostly. A few Tebow fans behind us had to be reminded that they were at an NBA game, and if they weren’t into basketball (why were they here?), they should realize they were in Patriot country. They left early.
