Pittsburgh

Please excuse my tardiness with this post. I decided the Thursday before Memorial Day that I wanted needed to take advantage of my long weekend and visit someone. I picked Leighann since she was in town and only 6 hours away. Chrissy surprised us and came up too. It was so fun! I wish I lived closer to my family but gotta take advantage of the time I have with them when we get together.

My work dress was supposed to be my Sunday dress but I was getting sweaty.... Also I had been in the car for a long time. I always have a lot of pent up energy traveling by myself.  Lots of people probably got weird voicemails that trip. Your welcome.

Leighann took us to the famous Pamela's. The line was out the wazhoo.

We got these delicious crepe hotcakes. So good. Maybe not the best decision to eat outside in the scorching heat but good none the less. 

She took us to Wooley's the seafood market. It was pretty cool.

Next time I go, I hope we get some crab. I have so many memories from childhood vacations cracking open crabs together at the kitchen table.

The girls were trying on all the different scarves to see which one fit their complexion the best. (sorry Chrissy, this is the only picture I had of you.)

This place looked so good and has a super cute name! We'll have to go next time when we haven't already had our daily sugar intake for the day.

Aren't these kids totes adorbs?

Also I love their interpretation of my name ;)

We tried these pancakes. They were pretty good. Chrissy is so creative ;)

Then we took a tour of Pittsburgh a la backseat of the family car.

This little guy has a special place in my heart. What a sweetie.

For those of you who were wondering

this is what my baller ring looks like. It's sooo pretty.

trying to get you all different angles.

Anyways, Adam and I had so much fun in Louisville yesterday for my birthday. We hung out all day at the waterfront park, which was sooo legit. This summer has been the summer to learn of all the cool things that I could have been doing all throughout college but never got around to it. This was one of those things. We got there ten minutes after they closed the bike shop because it was so hot and no one was renting bikes but ideally you could rent bikes/buggies to ride along the river and all over the park. There are at least two huge playgrounds and a splash area (which is quite refreshing on a scorching day), lots of paths, lots of porch-swings and just random cool things in a huge park along the Ohio River right in the city. It was so fun and Adam was hilarious yesterday so I was laughing a lot haha. Love my birthday and all the free food you can get at all the various restaurants. We went to the Cheesecake Factory and told the waiter it was my birthday so he wrote "Happy Birthday to You" in chocolate sauce around the cheesecake plate. It was awesome. He even put in a candle and threw some confetti sprinkles on the plate. Loved it!! Wish I had a camera on my phone to capture it and show you guys.

I told you, Adam was being hilarious yesterday, right? This is him jump/dancing up every single stair to the car. Haha there had to be 10 or so stairs that he did this on. So funny.
