Red Sox Nation: 2007 Champs Parade




We met up with the parade at Boylston St. We started at Fenway, where this big sign is. The last picture is of the band, Drop Kick Murphy's. We had so much fun!

Julie

Today I learned that Julie passed away. The news came through a dear friend. My husband and I loved that little girl; just like the other volunteers who knew she was special. In the two months I have been back from Uganda, I have immersed myself in all the frivolous things I had missed and now I feel foolish. Life is fleeting. She was important. The are other little children like her out there, and I want to do something for them. But I don't know what to do.
