Happy Memorial Day!

We're all a little Irish sometimes

I ♥ Faces - Week 11 - "Bundled Up"

This week's I ♥ Faces challenge is for "Bundled Up" photos, which is perfect after the ridiculous winter we've had. 

This photo was taken during the first blizzard of February. Geoff and I took Chasey for a walk at 12:30 in the morning, before the plows had even touched the streets. It was really serene and Chasey had a great time bouncing through the snow piles. We took a self portrait for photographic evidence of the trek.

Head over to I ♥ Faces to check out the rest of this week's entries!

San Diego in January

San Diego is a beautiful city. And when you're coming from 20 degree weather with snow on the ground, it's even more beautiful.

Geoff and I were out in California for a long weekend to visit his sister, who lives there. 70 degrees and sunny is MUCH more enjoyable than what we've got going on here in Philly.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, blogosphere! Wishing you and your families a wonderful holiday filled with family, friends and laughter.

Lull in blogging

Part of it is due to the fact that the shutter broke on our camera and had to be sent back to Canon to be fixed.

Part of it is due to the craziness of the holidays.

Part of it is due to spending too much time on my other blog.

Part of it is due to laziness.

Back soon, I promise.

Phillies versus Yankees

I do NOT want to talk about how the game went. Or how the series is going. Or about Cole Hamels.

All of that aside, here are a few pictures taken at Game Four of the World Series at Citizens Bank Park over the weekend. Geoff and I took pity on my sister and father, who are both Yankee fans, and brought them to the game with us. We should have known better ;)

Go Phillies!

We are the champions, my friends

The National League Champions, that is.

Okay, I'm going to tell you right now that the likelihood of me posting with any regularity in the next two weeks is slim to none. Why, you ask? Well, because the Philadelphia Phillies are going to the World Series for the second year in a row!

And my husband and I happen to be season ticket holders, which means lots of time spent at Citizens Bank Park, lots of screaming, and very little sleep. I'm already a zombie this week, after being at games on Sunday and last night, and it's only going to get worse from here.

However, a small price to pay for victory. Bring on the Yankees!

Honor and dedication

This past weekend, Geoff and I visited my sister in Washington D.C. More pictures to come of our rainy weekend, but here's my favorite shot. It was taken at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery. If you've never seen the changing of the guard, please add it to your bucket list. It's a must see.

Fall fun

This post is long overdue, but better late than never, right? Geoff and I went out to Bethlehem a few weeks ago to visit his grandmother, Grace. We had a great day, checking out the Celtic Festival in town, going apple picking, walking her dog, and enjoying some nice meals. Here are some pictures from the day.
