It's down to you, and it is down to me.

It took me a little longer than I thought to get all of the "private" stuff done. I still feel like I have locked people out, but hopefully it will work out and if they know me, they will contact me...

It has been so long since I have posted last, and so much has been happening. I feel like we have been on the road traveling non-stop since March. I like travelling, but I tire of living out of a suitcase. It's all the packing and re-packing that gets me. Unfortunately, it is only just beginning!!! We pull out of Richmond for good on the 22nd and head to Phoenix. I am really excited to move, but the idea of packing everything, and then unpacking everything on the other end makes my head swim.

Anyway, here is what we have been doing...

April 17-20: We jumped in the car and drove to Philadelphia to meet Trevor's family for a quick weekend trip. It was such a blast!! What a great city!! We are excited that Ryan and Camille will be living in the area so that we can go back again. Some photos...



THE Liberty Bell. Not quite as grandiose as I thought it might be, but still cool to see as an American icon.




We took an AWESOME tour of the city on a DUK boat, aka Amphibious vehicle from WWII. S loved her quacker.

I loved the Ben Franklin bridge. I think it is so pretty. What's not to love about a robin-egg blue bridge?!

We went to the Philadelphia Aquarium, which is actually across the river in New Jersey. (?) Savvy loved the fish, and she loved pushing cousin Bennett in his stroller. People around us got a real kick out of it.

Could he be any cuter??!!Thanks to the awesome Phil and Ted's stroller that looks like it was built for two riders...and two pushers. Just right. :)Mmmm.....Philly Cheesesteak. "I'll have wiz wit." That means, one delicious cheesesteak please with lots of drippy cheeze wiz and sauted onions on top." Oh so good and worth the trip just for one....we had two. :) There must be at least 10,000 calories in each sandwich.

We drove to Delaware and got a preview of a really neat garden (that I really can't remember the name of). We didn't go in, but we didn't need to. The tulips just out in front were spectacular.

Your daughter is adorable!!! Isn't it so fun to be a mom?!? Good luck with your move! Hope everything goes well with the transition from dental school to dental practice. Take care!
