Jeannette headed back west to her parents for quick weekend visit to assure herself that all was well on the western front. It was a great visit with getting to see family and a new puppy, catching up on some family business and also taking some time to hit the shooting range.
After church on Sunday we took Becky to see Boston’s famous St. Patty’s Day Parade. She got to see all the bagpipes and marching and everything else the parade is famous for. Afterwards we hit up Doughboy Donuts (another Boston institution) before having to take her to the airport. We had such a great visit with her! Come again soon Buck!
Becky came out to visit and we had a Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious time. Literally! We went to see Mary Poppins! It was absolutely amazing!
Actually the whole day was great! We had brunch with Gary and Daniel at Tremont 647 to start the day, then walked around our South End neighborhood, and then headed over to the North End for pastries and cappuccinos at Cafe Vittoria. We got to show her Josh’s ticket booth at Fanueil hall. And then we stopped for preshow drinks at a hotel bar near the theater and they had Mary Poppins themed drinks! So fun! The show was phenomenal – Bert danced on the ceiling and Mary flew over the audience! We loved the whole thing! Afterwards we went to the Beehive for a late dinner and drinks. A great day! Yay!

Becky found these great YouTube clips of Mary Poppins:
We missed photographing some of the fun memories of making cookies and putting together puzzles with Grandpa (we were too busy making cookies and putting together puzzles) but here are some of our pictures. You can check out more photos of the fun on Thadd’s blog, or on Shannon and John’s, or on Mr. Allen’s.
