Fall Fun

I love seasons. I love Fall in Boston. Most of all, I love being able to spend weekends enjoying the outdoors, eating awesome things and doing it all with lovely people. A few weeks ago, I gathered a troop of some of my favorite buddies for a hiking adventure at Blue Hills Reservation. It's literally 20 minutes from the city, but you feel like your in the depth of nature. It's glorious.

But first, Jordan and I met our good friends Tim and Chrissy in Brookline for some of these....

Now that's what I call a Crepe. If you live in the area, you have to visit Paris cafe and order at least 7 of their apple and brie crepes. They are the bomb. Chrissy and I begged to order more, but the boys told us we couldn't--what sexist pigs. :)

It's a good thing we got pumped up with cheese and pumpkin spice lattes, because our first activity at Blue Hills was a fairly intense and reckless game of catch. 

Ok, so really it was just Caitlin and Jordan passing to each other--huffing and puffing like they're important athletes. 

Then, the climb. Despite having a view of Boston, the blue hills are actually pretty challenging. 

Even the super stars needed a break.

Not this one. She was all hopped up on crepes. 

Please notice my walking stick. Thank you Jordan. So thoughtful.

We successfully passed the football the entire time--which involved lots of tasks to find the ball when we misjudged our passing distance. 

Such an experienced hiker...and check out the lady in the back. I'm not taking a picture of you. Don't worry.

Once we reached the bottom again, we rounded out our fun-filled day at Ikea with Zack and Caitlin. We spent more time eating affordable meatballs than shopping...but we did buy something useful. Photos on that to come.
