Grown ups in Boston!

After three and a half years, Trevor and I were able to sneak in a trip to Boston.  It. Was. Amazing! It started on the shuttle ride to the airport.  I heard Trevor say, " Hi Jason" weird!  I was trying to figure out how I knew him or why he didn't introduce me and after looking at him I knew!  It was Jason Varitek, Captain of the Boston Red Sox and Catcher.  We rode the the terminal with him, his wife, and baby.  From there, Trevor got upgraded to first class.  He offered it to me, but how could I accept knowing he would be seated close to one of his "hero's"  Needless to say, he took care of me back in the cabin.  The stewardess were offering me free drinks, lunch, snacks, and whatever it took to make me happy. Little did they know I was enjoying my book, and the peace and quiet that comes with alone time!  

Our first night we just enjoyed the city!  We went place to place enjoying the energy, good food, and drinks.  The second night Trevor spoiled me at the Top of the Hub.  We had window side seats for the sunset.  (not east to do) It was gorgeous!  The pictures don't do it justice and we overlooked Harvard.  Dinner was delicious!




The third night we went to Fenway!  We have had plans to be there before but even a hurricane stopped us!  This trip we couldn't be stopped and it was all I imagined and more!  I loved everything about the stadium and was shocked when the 2004 World Series Team was there and made their presence known on the Duck Boats!  Awesome!  We watched the first six innings from amazing seats.  We sat next to a nice scout that taught me a lot!  Then, I introduced myself to a man that I watch every Red Sox game (their biggest fan)  He sits in the front row.  He was so kind to invite us to the club for a drink and let me enjoy the rest of the game from his seat.  Although they lost, the Red Sox game was unbelievable.  I am still in awe that Trevor and I could have this much fun in the CITY!  In the past, we have only vacationed in the sun and after this trip things could change!  Boston is my kind of town!  Thank you Trevor for planning a great get-a-way!  Thanks to our parents for helping with our two babies!  We love you!

Fall is in full effect!

Soccer season is under way!  This is Avery's third fall and the team is improving.  There are some sweet girls on the team and they really get a long well.  Avery has also gotten the opportunity to play against some of her friends from school and the neighborhood.  That has been fun and really makes Smyrna seem like home when you can walk around and know many of the children and parents out at the park over the weekend! Skill wise, Avery is trying hard and controlling the ball well.



We also made it to the North Georgia State Fair and enjoyed the animals, rides, and food.  This is the first year the kids were fearless in petting the animals.  If we would have stayed any longer we may have come home with a pet rabbit.  The trip to the Fair has been a yearly event and this was our fifth year to enjoy the wild fun.

Atkinson Fun

Since the Atkinson's moved to Atlanta we have been busy enjoying the city!  We enjoyed the Eastlake PGA Golf Tournament and got to see one of Chipper's last ballgames.  It has been a lot of fun to enjoy these fun events with family!








Uncle Scott came to visit GA too!  Below is picture of an indoor baseball game he played with the kids! We enjoyed his visit as always!
