adopting boston.

Though you'll find me in Indiana this week, my heart is still in New England with {cv}. When we started dating, he always sported this fantastically worn-in Boston Red Sox hat, cocked a little to the side. {Now, whenever he wears a hat, I smile and think back to those early days!} Growing up in a state without a baseball team, he worked quickly to outfit me as a Red Sox fan. In our almost six years together, we've seen the Red Sox play eight times--and I'm now a full-fledged fan. Here are a few photos from our most recent Fenway experience earlier this month:

See that hat!? It's not the one he wore when we met six years ago, but it is a little to the side like the good ol' days ;) After seeing this photo, I also realized how decked out we were in gear from our alma mater. We're a little nerdy--forgive us! {Our future baby {v}'s are destined for geekiness!} All in all, we had a perfect Friday night under the lights--in the best seats either of us have ever had at Fenway!

Have you ever "adopted" something because of someone you love?

I'm so happy to now call myself a Red Sox fan. I most certainly didn't jump on the bandwagon--I adopted Boston as my team very willingly because of my love for {cv} ;) Though we now have a shared  affection for the Red Sox, we'll always share a mutual hatred of one another's NFL teams. {He's a Pats fan and I'm a Colts fan. We have to have a little competition in our house somewhere, right?!}

Get excited for another fabulous round of Friday's Fancies tomorrow! Need some inspiration for your post? Pull together your dream Memorial Day weekend outfit! {I've got a post lined up with my birthday celebration and our Cape adventure in mind :) woohoo!} 

Thanks for bearing with me this week while I've been on my unexpected work trip--I promise lots of fabulousness next week, including a phenomenal giveaway coming on Tuesday! I am counting down the minutes until tomorrow when I can see your Friday's Fancies posts roll in! 

Have a great Thursday! xoxo {av}
