I'm back from a long summer with a fun vacation that seemed too short.
My husband and I went to Delaware and visited New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The weather was muggy and all the houses looked like they were owned by Martha Stewart. Sights we saw were paper weights at the Wheaten Arts & Cultural Center, flowers at Longwood Gardens, and history in the historical district in Philadelphia. I definitely want to go back and see everything I missed...especially in Philadelphia.
I also got the chance to meet the members of my husband's family that I did not know.
My first Philly Cheese Steak sandwich
Kyle and his new cousin, Maryn. These two were two peas in a pod. Maryn followed Kyle everywhere and wanted to eat all the food on his plate.
