Back To Boston: Red Sox Game Da

Happy Monday loves!

I'm so sorry about another missed week. It's been a combination of work being totally nuts and our huge news that I still can't announce. I'm hoping that a month from today will be the day I can announce it but maybe it will be before, it totally depends on the timing!

Yesterday we headed up to Boston to see a Red Sox game! Tim's sister won tickets in a raffle but couldn't attend since she had to work so we happily accepted the tickets.

We parked near Copley Square in the Clarendon Garage. With a Red Sox ticket it's only $10 to park which is amazing. It was worth the 1.3 mile walk from the parking garage in order to get such a cheap parking price. We were able to walk through Copley Square and through beautiful Boston on a gorgeous day!

We arrived at the field about an hour before game time so we were able to pop in and out of a few stores. It's always so upbeat around the park before game time. There are a million different things going on and the energy is awesome.

I love going on an unexpected adventure with Tim! We had such a great day.

If you've never been to Fenway Park it is 100% worth the visit. It is the most historic ballpark in the MLB and in my opinion (based on what I've seen on tv) the most beautiful.

After a few quick pictures outside and some wandering around we headed to our seats in the grandstand. 

We were seated right near Pesky Pole and our seats were pretty good! I love sitting under cover so I don't get burnt.

Even though the Red Sox lost we had such an amazing time!

Once the game was over we headed to Max and Leo's Artisan Pizza right at Fenway. Unfortunately we were ignored for quite some time after we were seated so it started on not a great note.

The nachos were incredible!

We also shared a pizza that I can't remember the name of but it was filled with garlic, chicken and cheese and absolutely delicious!

Unfortunately the service didn't get much better so I wouldn't really recommend going here for dinner but the food was great.

After a great day in Boston we headed home to Rhode Island. The sunset on the drive home was so gorgeous I just had to share some pictures of it.

I hope you had a wonderful weekend and are enjoying these gorgeous August days!

A Weekend in Boston

Tim and I took off last weekend for a mini getaway in Boston! Way back in the spring I won tickets to a Red Sox game for August 17th which at the time seemed so far away- I can't believe it has already come and gone!

Once we knew we were going to the game I decided I wanted to spend at least one night in Boston and make a mini vacation out of it so I started looking online for a hotel deal. I didn't end up finding anything great but through Priceline managed to get a decent price on a room at The Inn at Longwood Medical. A fifteen minute walk from Fenway it was the perfect location for us on this trip.

Once we dropped our bags off in the room we walked straight down towards Fenway to get some food and check out exactly how far it was from our hotel.

I've never seen Fenway and the surrounding streets so empty! We had a nice time seeing it without the massive crowds. We had a great dinner at Jerry Remy's which is an awesome sports bar right near Fenway Park.

I took this picture as we were leaving our room on Monday morning. I didn't choose what type of room we wanted because it was cheaper that way and we were a little disappointed to end up with two beds! One was for storage :)

The first thing we did on Monday morning was go on a Duck Boat Tour. My mom purchased this for us and it was so much fun. We learned a ton of information and had fun hanging out as we cruised around the harbor.

Once we finished the boat tour it dropped us off right at the New England Aquarium. We decided to grab slices of pizza in Faneuil Hall before heading into the aquarium.

We had an amazing time in the aquarium! We both enjoyed learning about all of the sea creatures and were especially fascinated by the ginormous sea turtles and the different types of penguins!

Then it was time to cheer on our Red Sox!

Even though they lost we still had a blast at the game and drove home talking about how much fun we had over the past weekend!

I thought I would show you how I did on my fitbit as well! Amazing how many steps I took in one day! So much walking in Boston!

Sorry for the picture overload, but I hope you enjoyed seeing our weekend trip to Boston!
