We went to the Patriots first preseason game of the year. We had lots of fun with Gary and Daniel, a pregaming a little in the parking lot and watching a blowout.

Fourth of July Fireworks
Our friend rents a Boston hotel room on a top floor every year with a great view of the fireworks show. This year we were able to accept the invite and watch the great show from a new vantage point!

Bruins Stanley Cup Parade!
We joined over 1.5 million (some are saying 2 million) Bruins fans in Boston to cheer on the B’s and to thank them for bringing the Cup to Boston. We caught up with the parade route near its end in Copley Square right by our church. It was super exciting and great to see all the players up close.

South End Garden Tour
We noticed signs for the South End Garden Tour around the neighborhood and decided we were going this year. It was great that Gary’s mom was in town and the four of us enjoyed a beautiful day looking at all the gardens. The tour gave self-guided access to private or tucked away gardens throughout our neighborhood. There are some very pretty places that people have created in their tiny spaces. We really enjoyed it. And we loved that Daniel joined us afterwards for lunch!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
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:
