A snack before we hit the road to go to the Museum of Fine Art. Rebekah was a great tour guide/art educator as she led the girls on a scavenger hunt throughout the museum.
Elise in ringlets. I enjoyed doing my neices' hair while we were there.
Camille got a kick out of sitting next to Dallin because he kept grabbing her finger.
Nikolay and Dallin in front of Boston Commons
Emily and Jacob didn't know I was taking this but they always look great together. I tried to get the Boston Commons sign in it, but it got chopped off.
We walked along the Freedom Trail and these were embedded in the sidewalk all along the red brick path.
This sign is outside the graveyard where Paul Revere was buried along with John Hancock and other famous Bostonians. Click to enlarge.

Paul Revere's
I think this is the only shot that Rebekah and I were both in.
Rebekah has got to be the mother with the strongest back, she has carried her infants all over the world. Literally.
This mosaic is embedded in the sidewalk in front of the first public school. I really liked the folk art pictures. It has the whole alphabet with pictures for each letter around the border.
Gwyneth on the Democrats' donkey.
Then everyone else had to try it.
All of the cousins waiting for the dads to move the cars.

So much fun! I'm glad you got some pictures of Rebekah because some how I dind't end up with any.
Oh and your banner fits fine on my screen now!
Heavens to betsy, does that Elise look so much like you or what!?! (I loved the old banner but it was too big for my screen, too)
Love love love Boston. We were there last summer and had a ball. Have family there. We were also in that same cemetery and thought the old graves were fascinating. Glad you had fun!
Looks like so much fun. I love the east and all the history to be found there. Wonderful. And great that the cousins could spend some time together. That's important.
Baby Bjorn's are magic.
And I'm so happy your blog fits my screen, too! Plus it doesn't take 14 years to load (although I really love the huge pictures).
Amazing pictures Heather! And you're commentary makes it sound like a week-end fit for a magazine! You would never think there was a crying kid or pouting husband (mine, I mean). We're looking forward to the next time we can congregate together.
Looks like you had a lot of fun! I've never been to Boston, but I can tell I'd love it!
