Old Buddies Reunite

While browsing Target the other day I ran into an old friend I grew up with, who I lost touch with in college. Unbelievable! Bryna lives in the next town over, Watertown, and has a 7 year old, Arianna, and 4 year old, Aidan! Today we got together and had some fun. Amazing how years can pass and though we have a lot of catching up to do, it's like we just saw each other yesterday.Andrew really likes Bryna- he even fell asleep in her arms!Aidan was very helpful and kept Andy entertained with Baby Einstein and his charm. Andy loved it! Here, Aidan helps change his diaper.

We went to the park across the street. Bryna kept Andy toasty warm in her jacket while I pushed Aidan's swing and Arianna kept busy circling around on her bicycle. The weather was "seasonably cool".
Note the foliage- at peak!

Rally Time (and Happy Anniversary!)

Just think- 3 years ago, 2004, we were missing out on the parade but instead getting married!! What a chaotic, joyous time it was-
And who knew, 3 years later, we would be celebrating *another*
World Series Championship with our precious little Andrew!
Here he is, performing what appears to be "The Papelbon" dance.

There were a lot of people!!!
We ended up being there for a short time because there were swarms of people everywhere, headed away because we missed the duck boat parade.
Supposedly, more people appeared for this rally than in 2004.
No complaints from Andrew! He was quiet, taking it all in.Posing for photos at The Rally.

The blimp followed us as we drove home.

Yay!!!!
