I had a really nice time at the rehearsal dinner tonight. It was wonderful celebrating Greg, my brother-in-law, and his wife-to-be, Jen. They’re such a great couple.
Our evening, started with a limo ride into Boston– and, of course, we were well-prepared for the trip with lots of champagne! 
M & T.
Greg was psyched for the limo ride! 
Bubbly!
The bride and groom!
Cheers to Greg and Jen!!!
The rehearsal dinner was held at the Harvard Club of Boston.
The downtown Harvard Club had the most amazing views of the city!
Before dinner, we enjoyed a cocktail hour with drinks and passed appetizers.
I ate 3 or 4 passed apps.
I also enjoyed a vodka dirty martini. (I’m on serious DM kick lately, huh?)
Maid of honor + bride.
Handsome.
Guy talk.
Coleman, Sib, and Mal.
Best man.
After about an hour, it was time to sit down to a lovely 4-course dinner.
But, first Mal’s dad and Greg’s mom said a few words and we toasted to Greg and Jen.
Before the first course was served, I enjoyed a yummy raisin-walnut roll.
The first course was a creamy squash soup with a strong apple cider flavor to it. It was delish!
And, then we had a spinach salad with tomatoes, red onion, and a ring of bacon on top.
The main course was grilled salmon with asparagus and fingerling potatoes.
Dessert was a cool, key lime custard with coconut and fresh berries. Mmm!
I left dinner pretty full, but it was definitely worth the splurge.
Heading to bed. Good night!

Hello, beautiful weather!!! 
I really hope that you are here to stay!
I spent all afternoon outside in the sunshine– hanging out with my favorite guys and drinking my favorite brew. It was a really nice way to spend the day. Not a bad way to spend the day, right?
Mid-afternoon, we broke into a bottle of Bourbon County and munched on some TJ’s trail mix.
This is a great sipping beer!
While sitting outside, we updated our March Madness brackets. I’m doing okay so far!
Meanwhile, Murphy chewed on some sticks.
And, a highlighter! Murphy!
And, the guys ran around the yard.
Awesome day! 
A limo is coming to pick us up at 5:30 to drive us into Boston for the rehearsal dinner. Fancy, right? I can’t wait!

Greetings from I-93!
I’m blogging from the passenger seat of Mal’s car. Mal and I are driving to my mom’s house to drop off Murphy for the weekend. (My brother-in-law is getting married!) “Grandma” is really excited to have her “grand-pug” for the weekend. She has all sorts of plans for him!
Breakfast
After Body Pump, Mal and I headed to the Wheelhouse Diner for breakfast. The place was pretty much empty on a Friday morning. Usually, we wait a good 20 minutes for a table, but we sat down right away.
I ordered the “usual” for breakfast: 2 eggs, homefries, and rye toast. Best breakfast ever!
After breakfast, Mal and I headed home to shower and pack for our trip home. In our travels, we stopped by D&D for a couple of iced coffees. Iced coffee is so delicious on a sunny day!
Then, Mal and I took a quick trip to the mall to do some last-minute shopping. Mal bought a couple of new shirts and pair of pants, and I frantically ran around the mall in search for a strapless, backless, stick-on bra. My goodness, it was an adventure! Eventually, I found something at Victoria Secret. Thanks for everyone’s suggestions! Hopefully, it all works out!
We ended up spending longer than expected at the mall, so I threw together a quick lunch for us to eat on the road while Mal finished packing. I made a couple of PB & J sandwiches and grabbed a couple of Granny Smith apples.
I’m starting to feel a little car sick– car blogging doesn’t jive well with me. Lots happening this weekend! Stay tuned!
