I'm blogging from Boston, MA on Marlbrough Street a block over from Newbury Street while visiting my friends, Emalee and Mark Holmes. Their dog, Jackson, has been very kind to allow Pearson to completely invade his space. Pearson is accustom to Lolly's love (licks), so he keeps leaning into Jackson with his mouth open wide. Jackson is a well behaved dog unlike the Lolly girl, thus Pearson has not received very many kisses, which should make his NeNe, Nana, and Granny pleased!
Pearson made his first flight on Saturday morning and was perfect! He smiled over the seat at a partner from Darrell's firm, which was a relief. He really knows how to put on the charm when needed. We arrived Saturday afternoon and strolled around Beacon Hill, the Public Common, and then went back to the Holmes to enjoy delicious pizza.
On Sunday we enjoyed brunch at Masa. Kat was in Boston for a wedding and was able to join us, which was quite a treat. I'll see her twice in one week! Then we strolled and shopped around the Holmes neighborhood. Em had cute little cupcakes to celebrate my birthday. Red Velvet with cream cheese icing and a candle to celebrate 29 and holding until I'm 39 and holding!
On Monday, we headed to North End for a oysters at Neptune! Em tried her first slimly delicacy and opted to never eat an oyster again. Then we walked a block to burn some calories before indulging in sweet treats from Mike's Pastries, home of the best cannoli ever. So in honor of the best cannolis ever, Em ate Boston Cream Pie and I ate Tiramisu. Darrell was disappointed with our choices. He truly loves the cannoli and cannot find one that compares to Mike's anywhere south of the Mason Dixon!
Boston is a beautiful city bustling with people strolling, walking dogs along the cobblestone sidewalks. The shopping is fantastic and the food is divine! Pearson and I have truly enjoyed our trip

Hey Laura, I'm glad you had a fun trip. Wayne and I lived in Boston for 3 months at a time, 2 different times (last year and the year before), y'all were so close to us, we're only 2 1/2 hours from Boston!!! I love Mike's Pastries!! We went there all the time, I love the Canolies(?). Next time you visit Boston, call me, I'd love to see y'all.
