Pittsburgh

It was Jessica's 30th birthday on Friday so we celebrated with a road trip to Pittsburgh for a girls' weekend and to visit her family.

Shortly after crossing the Pennsylvania border, we met roadies who were making a documentary about the band Apple Miner Colony. We watched the Stanley Cup game at a bar that was part of health club. We walked by people who were lifting weights, passed a wedding, and ate a ton of loaded french fries. Out of curiosity, Jessica's dad asked someone in the wedding party who was getting married and that person replied, "I know my sister but I don't know her new husband." It was very exciting to be in Pittsburgh when the Penguins had their victory and it was the perfect end to Jessica's birthday evening.

On Saturday, we all had great luck shopping. I bought a new sundress from Macy's and a spent my birthday gift card on a pretty pink shirt from Banana. We went saw the city from Mt. Washington and went dancing at Dolce. James Harrison from the Pittsburgh Steelers was also there. We woke up to a nice big breakfast this morning and spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing by the pool.

It was fun to have a weekend away and I hope that we can all go on another road trip soon. We are thinking about Montreal, Philly, and Washington DC.

If only I could get rid of my sunburn.....
