Hello 2011!

Boston has a great New Year's Eve celebration called "First Night." Generally, it's a little cold to go in for fireworks but we braved the cold weather last year and couldn't pass up the 40-degree weather this year.

Waiting at the commuter rail station for the train. The bells are a little loud...


Enjoying the train ride (the lighting on the trains is a little tough to photograph...)


Love this shot!


Waiting for the fireworks on the steps near the State House.

Devin loving the fireworks


One of the better fireworks shots I managed


The only ice sculpture we saw while out... Still very pretty!


Checking out the model trains at South Station




Trying for a Mom-and-Devin picture without too much luck... Devin was a bit more interested in my scarf than the camera.


Running free at South Station


And, finally, headed home...




Happy New Year and 
best wishes for a wonderful 2011!

Happy New Year! I'm glad you had such a nice time. To answer your question - we didn't get to check on our house because we left early, but the renters seem to be working out very well.
