Family in Town

Our second set of visitors came to Boston! Brandon's brother had a design conference to attend, and his wife and little boy were able to come to enjoy the historic city and to visit with us, of course!

Paul, Jordan, and Moses live in San Francisco and love living in the busy city. Paul is an accomplished artist who will soon be venturing off on his own to paint exclusively. His paintings are beautiful, and we hope to own one of his pieces one day. Jordan is a very talented woman who spends her day taking care of their five-month old son Moses, managing an apartment building, and maintaining her popular blog, Oh Happy Day. To me she seems the ultimate event planner with creative ideas always brimming.

While Brandon worked and Paul attended his meetings, Jordan and I were able to take in some Boston sights. We walked the first half of the Freedom Trail from the Public Garden and Boston Common to Faniel Hall. That night we were able to get a babysitter and the adults enjoyed a delicious dinner at Giacomo's and dessert at Mike's Pastry in the North End. The next day included a stop at Harvard Yard and the Museum of Fine Arts.


We loved meeting our new nephew and cousin in the Ferney clan. Moses was so cute!

Both the pictures of the museum AND the mention of Mike's Pastry are making me salivate. (For different reasons, obviously!)

I would always get the lobster tail at Mike's.

Hey, BTW, my in-laws live in American Fork. Maybe we'll actually be able to catch up with guys again some day!

Thank you for hosting! We can't wait to see you at the beach house trip. Right? :)
