red sox game #3

we have a red sox fanatic in the family... it's official

the family sans kelsey and robby took a trip to boston this past week and it was a blast! we did the freedom trail, roamed around quincy market and ate a lot of delicious food, took a ferry to cape cod and spent the day there biking and shopping, and most importantly we went to 3 red sox games! this was cole's dream come true.... and even though they lost two of the games we got to see them beat the yankees! it was such a good game! we missed you kels and robby!

ELDER BEARNSON!

i got to see my cousin alex today!

elder bearnson and i!

i caught alex and his companion in action on the bridge!

burton on trent is so pretty!

alex and his bike!

clare was so awesome- she taught the lesson on missionary work... how fitting! she did a great job and was so nice. i think i convinced her to make a trip to the states when alex gets home :)

alex and his companion from hyde park

this is right in the middle of town on the river.

april was sooo nice to come with me on the 12 hour journey... it was totally worth it. we had a blast.

Alex looks so great and seems so happy! The members LOVE him. Clare's daughter called him her "big brother." There were a lot of really strong women in relief society and the ward seems fantastic. Rue, I will email you with more details!
