My second love of Boston was all the adorable apartments and alley ways. Elicia and I would peer down the short alley ways lined with black street lamps and gaze in awe at how stinkin cute they were. Then I’d realize it is actually someone’s front door and how stupid we must look just staring at it with stars in our eyes and a deep breathe would leave my mouth after I realized I was holding it. We wandered on to find the next one and the next one like little girls at a candy shop!

My first love of Boston was the Freedom Trail. I wish I had days to roam up and down it. The brick path turns a corner and just picks up on the other side of the street. You don’t even need a map! You can just follow the brick road to the next treasure of American history and peek into all the adorable apartments and store fronts as you wander along. Totally fabulous!

I traveled to Boston a week ago with 17 college students and one fabulous friend, Elicia, for a week of service-learning. The trip was stretching in all directions and I have spent a lot of time reflecting on my experience. Trying to figure out God’s purpose for my time there and what I’m supposed to do now that I’m back in the comforts of my home. The students refreshed my soul, the physical work made me realize how old I am and a week focused on social justice made my heart heavy and my eyes wider. Laughter was the medicine for our bones and souls as we went through the week. I said to Elicia, “Come on! Sign up to lead this trip with me!” and little did she or I know what was in store for us. How God would open our hearts, hands and eyes to His world through the inner city of Dorchester.
One evening we were able to get downtown Boston and I’m excited to share some of my Boston finds this week on my blog. I adore downtown Boston and can’t wait to return. Talk about a place to start a stationary/invitation shop! Lets just say I had fun roaming the streets dreaming…ok and picking my jaw up off the freedom trail as I would come upon adorable shop names and signs.

Nathaniel and I sat next to each other in German 101 back in the day. Who would have thought I’d be designing his logo for his new law firm. Funny how that works out after college…
