Day 1, Boston

I have this dear friend that I have known so long that I don't remember meeting her. We have literally been friends since diapers. She has seen some of my best and worse days, stuck by my side through my awkward years, and been a part of some of my funniest stories.
As we got older, we went to different colleges, took interest in different things, and she moved north.
                        Waaayyy north.
                        Boston north.

But, in spite of all of the distance, there has never been a time in my life where I felt like I couldn't call her and pick up right where we left off. No matter how long it has been, seeing her is always so sweet!

As Spring Break approached, I was long overdue to visit my longest friend - so Sam and I were so excited for a few days off school and the opportunity to get to hop on a plane to Boston to spend time with her once again.

The first day we were there, I was so excited to start our day that I woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep. So I took the opportunity to  photograph her trendy apartment in the last few undisturbed moments before all of the hustle and bustle began. The natural morning light was so beautiful, I had to take advantage of it!

After breakfast we hit the streets of Boston and took in scenery that was worlds away from anything we see in Texas. I loved every moment of walking around in the city. It felt like I had stepped into history. I guess that in many ways, I had!



Are these Hydrangeas not the most beautiful colors you have ever seen?


So thankful Kath had an app for everything we could ever need. Seriously, everything.

These are doors to the pews at "The King's Chapel". Each pew is sectioned off and numbered. Apparently, you used to have to pay for a place for your family to sit. Crazy.




We HAD to get some authentic Italian food in the Italian neighborhood of Boston! 


I should note here that at the moment of this picture, I was a creepy stranger taking pictures of kids I did not know. Hockey just felt so "New England" to me, so I had to! I'm sure you understand.

This would be living lobster, just moments before its death. He was pretty angry, and understandably so.

Such a great first day!
