Grandma and Grandpa came to Pennsylvania!

After being in Pennsylvania for just a few days, my parents drove our car out to us and we got to explore Hershey a little bit together...one of our first things had to be Hershey's Chocolate World :)


The Reese's Dude!

Grandma and Grandpa got suckered into buying the boys each a ball...they loved it!


Since my dad is one of the hand-iest men I know, we put him to work. We headed to Lowe's and Tracen demonstrated how to shopping-cart surf.

We also headed out to Lancaster to hang out with the Amish...we even stopped and had Amish root beer...the jugs were cute, but the root beer was a bit nasty.

This was the name of one of the towns we stopped in...funny huh?

Tracen and Grandpa fed some animals...

while Logan played on a wooden train!


Then Tray had a pony ride...so fun!


Chris has been working like a mad-man...he works in month-long rotations and lucky him he got Night Float for his first month on the job. So he works 6 nights a week 5:30pm til 6:30am Sunday through Friday...so we get to hang out together on Saturday nights and Sunday mornings!
Me & My Doctor

Daddy and the boys :)

Grandpa turned 58 with us....when we were little we always had this cake...angel food with Cherry Kool-aid frosting! It's still Dad's favorite!

The boys helped Grandpa blow out the candles :)

So here is the house (I've posted the pic before...and soon I will post pictures of the inside) We are slowly getting unpacked and settled but not quite decorated yet...


Check out the boys' new "church jerseys" ha!

Saying Goodbye to Family & Friends

While there are many pros to moving back east for residency and getting out of Reno...there are also A LOT of cons and missing family and friends is a HUGE one. We loved the time we were able to spend with them before we left and my boys still ask about many people daily...its hard to explain to them that they are in Reno and we can't just drive 30 minutes to see them (more like 30 hours...booo!) But we are adjusting and making many new friends (posts to come)...but here are SOME of the Reno-ites we miss :(

Tracen (5) Zach (9) Ally (11) Logan (3)

Tracen with Grandma Lou and Grandpa Fred!


Some of our favorite girlies Kelsea and Ava

Here is me and Lindy...we have been friends and running buddies since a Biology class in college :)

We miss you guys!

Hawaii...no talk just pictures :)

We went to Hawaii for two weeks in June (13 - 26) with Grandma Maree, Rick, Kim Morgan & Jace. We spent most of our mornings at the beach and would end up at the pool later on in the day! We visited the "grand-canyon" of Hawaii and ate lots of yummy food, including the PUKA DOG...the most delicious hot dogs ever! Enjoy!
