Alex and Ani Boston Themed Jewelry

I follow the Boston Red Sox on Facebook. Today they posted a link to Alex and Ani who sells Red Sox themed jewelry. I was intrigued and followed the link. When I got there, I searched "Boston" and found more than just our beloved Sox. They have the Sox, Celtics, Boston University, Boston College, Harvard, and of course, my favorite, Boston itself. :)

The pictures below are the my favorites that are now added to my gift wish list. :) At the price of $28-$32, they are really affordable. You can choose either color sold for each bracelet- gold or silver. :) And for my fellow patriots, you will be happy to hear that all the jewelry is made in America. :)

I was not paid or compensated to make this post. I just was excited to find Boston themed jewelry and wanted to pass it along to anyone else who may love Boston as I do. :)

I have always been a fan of history and baseball, so naturally I was drawn to Boston. My husband and I first went to Boston in April of 2010. I immediately fell in love. Growing up in Texas, it is basically blasphemy to love any place, other than Texas. But I couldn't help myself. I was in love. I also swore off my allegiance to my Texas teams and became a faithful fan of the Red Sox, (and of course the other Boston teams have my allegiance too, but I am first and foremost a baseball fan). That first Boston visit, we went to the opening series of 2010- Sox vs the Yankees! Walking into Fenway park on a beautiful April day to see the greatest rivalry in sports- well, it was nothing short of magical! I was now forever in love with the Red Sox and Fenway Park!

Despite my dreaming and planning, I was not able to return to Boston until May 2013. My daughter Annie and a friend of mine joined me for a girl's weekend. I thought it would satisfy my hunger for Boston, but all it did was make me fall in love even more. Since I can't move to Boston, (much to my dismay), I plan to visit there quite often. Here you will find posts concerning what I discovered about Boston on my first two trips there, and what I plan to do on my future trips. :) Think of it as a visitor's guide and an enthusiasts ode to Boston. :)
