Our first friends to visit were Jill and Ryan Hudson. I'm pretty sure they bought their plane tickets to come see us as soon as we signed a lease in May. I think they were in denial about the fact that they had just moved to Charlotte, to be with us of course, and then we decided to leave. They came two weeks after we got here and with them, they brought Red Sox tickets! Thanks to Mr. Ridley, we got to go to not one, but two Red Sox games while Jill and Ryan were here. And the seats were amazing.
I'll tell you a little something about the Hudsons...they love the Red Sox. So, they've actually been to Boston a number of times. They ended up showing us around our new city. They took us to the Northend (unofficially Little Italy) to an amazing authentic Italian pastry shop called Modern Pastry. The line was out the door, but of course we waited, and then took our little boxes of pastries to the ball game and enjoyed a blissful evening of desserts and baseball.
It felt too fast and I was sad for them to leave, but it was fun to have good friends see our new world and live in it with us for a few days.
