We had a Boston Tea Party hosted by Andrea and Johnny at there home last night and it was a blast. Several Boston marathon runners showed up. We had a bbq with veggie burgers,brats, and hamburgers.  There was boston baked beans and salads, a great dessert and lots of chit chat!  Good luck to all those heading this week!

Ahhhh, dang it!!! How could we forget the Boston creme pie?? Well, I'll go buy a Boston creme pie and eat it in your honor. We are so glad you, Misty, and the girls were able to come and hang out. We had a great time getting to know Misty (I'm impressed with how well she sliced that onion!) and the girls. Man, your brats were a big hit! Thanks again so much for bringing them.

Good luck out in Boston on Monday! Right about this time next week you'll be lacing up your shoes and working through pre-race jitters (eww, I just got a little queezy thinking about it.) Chat with you soon!
