Busy Busy Busy week!





This week was a very busy one! We started off the week by attending Dennis and Mari's wedding in Hershey with many friends and family! It was also Jack's first long car trip and stay overnight someplace other than home. Babci came along with us to go to the ceremony and then watch Jack while Frank and I went to the reception (Mommy's first night --even though it was only about 4 hours-- away from Jack). It was nice for Frank and I to have a night out and get to catch up with family and friends and for me to have a glass of wine! Congratulations to Dennis and Mari!



On Monday we celebrated Memorial Day by heading to Elizabethtown (my Alma mater) to visit with some very good old friends, Elie, Dave, Bryan, James and Natalie. It had been a couple of years since we had seen them and I was in shock to see how grown up the kids were...especially Natalie! It was so neat to see what kind of people they have become!



After our visit we met Tara and Terrance and Andrew and Maggie for Jack's first visit to T.J. Rockwells, our favorite college hangout, with one of the coolest outside decks I have ever seen! (Frank agrees!) After a very hot lunch (90 degrees) we headed home and literally crashed!


The next couple of days were spent recovering from our excursion and doing mundane chores such as cleaning and grocery shopping. On Thursday Jack and I were invited to join the SJ Hip Mamas for a walk around Newton lake park and then a play date for the kiddies afterward. It was so much fun to meet other moms with kids ranging from Jack's age and younger to 4 years old. I am really looking forward to attending more outings and I was thrilled to find a new place to walk with a huge playground...and only 7 minutes from home! After the park my mom came to spend a few days with us. We spent the last couple of days playing with Jack, shopping, cooking and eating, and just catching up. Grammy was extremely sucessful in the shopping catagory. She was able to find a dress for my brother's wedding in August and an outfit for the rehearsal dinner too. The price...unbelieveable. Let's just say cashmere sweater--$11! The week was a very busy one but fun, and we were so thankful to see everyone that we did!



After our very long week one little guy was very tired......
