12959

alright, alright...i'm getting some flack for not posting for a while. it's been a little crazy in the boutry household over the last two weeks.

recap: amy and i got married on june 7th, honeymooned in mexico for a week, packed up a budget rental truck the day after we got home (the 16th), hit the road the next morning in the wee hours and drove all the way to durango in one shot. wednesday morning we packed up my stuff, had lunch with some friends, and were back on the road (we spent the night in denver with my aunt and uncle). thursday morning...more driving, followed by more driving, and then...some more driving. we didn't stop until we hit boston in the late hours of friday night/saturday morning.

so, after many miles and hours and a small fortune in gas we slept in our new home and then saturday (the 21st...my birthday) we began unloading the truck and moving in. we've made some good progress over the last couple of days (no pictures yet...still working on getting the 'net in the new house), but we've been busy with other things as well.

what other things? i had my first fenway park experience monday night. i started work yesterday. we saw dave matthews last night. and on top of all of this, amy's grandfather passed away sunday night.

please pray for amy's family and for amy as well (she just got here and now has turn around and go back to california to be with family and go to the funeral).

there's been a lot going on. oh, and our roommate arrives in town today.

anyway, we are not complaining. we love being married! but pray for rest and comfort and for a slower pace of life to settle in soon!

Don't let the smell of Boston sod suck you in my friend...Zito pitched like a champ tonight. Even a blind squirrel finds and acorn every once in awhile...
