In Boston you can walk the Freedom Trail and get lots of history in. You can print off the directions for the trail and just follow it. I don’t think it costs anything. C and my Dad did it in the spring and they highly recommend it!
Ahem! That bold red suitcase is not ugly, it’s mine! Besides, anything with that many pockets is not ugly! ๐ And Cassia and I were not arguing about which suitcases we wanted to bring… hee, hee! ๐
Better go work on the list!
Jessica
You seem to have more items on your to-do list than there are possible hours in a day!
I love how organised you ladies are!
Looking forward to seeing some great pictures here in the coming weeks, courtesy of our Seven Sisters! Have a safe and fun trip! ๐
Blessings,
~ Kristal ~
We are so excited about your visit!!!! (I’m one of your Mom’s friends from T-Tapp and I think we may be your first stop?)
Yes! I believe you are ๐ We can’t wait!!!
Jessica
I love how you’ve got everything so organized…I need to learn from y’all. LOL In reply to your question on the shipping date for the hats….I need to get the exact shipping date for the container. The ministry told me the container would be leaving toward the end of October. So obviously, the earlier you mail them the better. Since you’re going on a trip, maybe you should try to mail them on your way. And I’ll try to get an exact shipping date for the container and let you all know! Hope I helped, Susannah! Blessings!
looks like lots of fun!! ๐ i can SO see you and Cassia fighting ๐ its so you :). ok one last time H.A.V.E. A. G.R.E.A.T. T.R.I.P!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ๐ there that was 80 million and 1 ๐ have a great night finish packing ๐
bye
love
mary ? ?
nothing for Boston??? That seems hard to believe. Surely with all the history in that region there ought to be something you can do there? ๐ Anything about the Boston Tea Party? Isn’t that where the Sons of Liberty used to meet? Hope you find something :).
Love,
Kels
Actually, we now have a nice long list of things to do there ๐
Yes, we knew we wanted to see a lot of things, but just deciding how much and how long we could be there ๐
Jessica
If that’s LOADS of laundry, I wonder what ours is? ๐ Well, I can use the excuse that we have more BOYS than y’all do. Hee hee! Yes, that’s it. Boys take up a lot of clothes, you know. But I think you have very little laundry there. ๐
I’m praying for your trip!
Well, most of the laundry was “behind the scenes”…you never know what kind of clothes pop out of everywhere ๐ Thanks for your prayer! We muchly appreciate them!
Jessica
It looked a lot worse than that 4 loads before ๐
Boston! How about Plymouth???? That’s where my hero lives-he gives tours of the town-(He’s a pastor there, too ) I really want to go there-did I mention how JEALOUS I am??!! Oh my! I must leave, or I’m going to covet. ๐
Have a great time, and say hello to MA for me! *Green with envy* ๐
hey! I love that bold red suitcase!!! (: love the post!
Whoo Hoo!!! You are leaving on your trip!! I cannot wait to see/meet you all! ๐
I am driving down the road coming back from the beach! ๐ you’ll be there in a couple days/weeks ! ๐ have a safe trip!
Love rachel ๐
I hope you all have loads of fun!
Prayers,
Esther
Hey Jessica!
I’m sorry i never replied to your email, for some reason when I tried it wouldn’t let me. ๐ Anyway, something has come up so I don’t think we’re going to be able to try and meet y’all in Greenville after all…sorry! Things are a bit…crazy right now. But have fun!!!
Love,
