What a weekend

Well I have to say I was really excited for this past weekend, but even that it surpassed my excitement.  I flew up to Boston to spend some time with my family and go to a Halloween party.  I flew in Friday night and from that point on I was in food heaven, there is nothing like going home and eating at some of your favorite places growing up on that you don’t get to have often now because you live so far away.  My sister bought me a sub from this place we used to go to a lot; I can taste it now a roast beef sub with so much meat on it you can’t even close it.  Picture this so much meat in the sub, they can’t even put any toppings on it but a few sprinkles of pickles, lettuce and onions.  Most places you go to they fill it with toppings but with this place they fill it with some of the best roast beef I have ever had.  After that my step dad had a small fire going outside and we watched some basketball (Go Celtics).  Saturday morning I woke up to my sister asking if I wanted to go have lunch.  We went to a steakhouse and met up with a friend.  I got to hand pick my 14 oz NY strip with my choice of loaded baked potato.  Then we went out and did some shopping at a few stores and this is where it got even better.  As we were walking around the local cable network had a booth setup giving away some free stuff, as we walked by they asked us if we had scratched off a ticket.  We all got one, my sisters and friend went first they all won a flashlight.  As I scratched mine I said HDTV I handed it to the lady and started to walk away, I thought they would put it in a raffle and call me later.  To my surprise she stopped me and said where are you going you can take this home you won this 32” LCD TV.  Awesome I don’t have an LCD tv at my house this is my first one so I will ship it down.   Great weekend so far but now it was time to get ready for our Halloween party, I was dressed as Jon Bon Jovi long hair tight shirt, guitar I was looking rock n roll.  We had a great night playing beer pong until 3 am.  Now its Sunday and its football day Patriots vs. Vikings patriots won and my step dad cooked corn chowda (NE Accent there) .  This was my weekend I had such a great time I am missing it so much right now, but I just got the tv today via UPS and hooked it up and it is amazing. What a great weekend, gotta love family!!!
