Go Yankee's and Redsox?

Not many people get to go to a Yankee's game at Yankee stadium and a Redsox game at Fenway in the same weekend. And in most cases, not many people would want to right? In the world of sports there are rules, or so I thought. You can't cheer for both the Utes and the Cougars and you can't cheer for both the Redsox and the Yankee's? You bleed either blue or red, not purple. Well, I thought that until I married Greg. You see he is the biggest sports fan I know, but an odd one. He loves the Redsox. There are few who know more about them than he does, but yet their one true rival, the Yankee's, he will still cheer for unless they play the Redsox. Fareweather you may think, but really quite the contrary. You see in Greg's world the REAL world series in the playoffs is the Redsox Yankees rivalry. So he will root for the Yankees as long as it is not to the detriment of the Redsox and will help them make it to the point where both teams play each other.

Well anyway, we had a wonderful weekend with Greg's parents on our Boston trip. As mentioned, Greg and his dad got to go to a ballgame. I have never in my life seen Greg so excited!! Even though it rained and was freezing cold he loved every second of Fenway. He called me at least 3 times to tell me how wonderful it was. He and his dad were kids in a candy store. They both couldn't wait to come back to the hotel and tells us about every detail. However, because of the rain the game was delayed and I was already asleep when he got home, so when Brinley got up at 4:30 to eat he got up too and told me all about it! It was so fun to see both of them so happy and in their element. Greg's Dad even told us that he wanted to be buried in his new Redsox hat. I must say I had a great time myself with Greg's mom and Brinley. She took the baby and I got to take a nice long hot bath! Grandparents are the best!!!

And we also squeezed in some historical sites as well. We didn't have our camera for most of it, but here are some of the things we saw.

Just for the record our little Brinley was an angel and traveled so well!! We got so lucky! She slept most of the ride there and back.
