Philly

Although we were looking foward to visiting Philly, we had a slight snag in our trip. The plane had mechanical issues that grounded us for about 5 hours in the Vegas airport (I know - an exciting place - but the airport's really not that exciting :) Finally arrived in Philly around 3:30 am.... A very lucky sister of mine was given the honor of picking us up at that time.. Thanks Christine!! :)

We had a great time at Vaishali's wedding. The NY venue was one of a kind, and the appetizer stations were awesome - we especially enjoyed the Sushi... yummy! The bride looked absolutely gorgeous, and we wish her all the best!!

The next night we had a payoff dinner with John's friends for a bet the guys had lost during a bowling match from the last time we got together. The girls had to give them credit - they made an amazing dinner of cream of mushroom soup, cucumber sandwiches, lasagna, stuffed peppers, and an assortment of cakes. It surprisingly was a really delicious meal :) Good job guys!!

While we were in Philly, we got to visit Abbey and Soby in the hospital, who had just experienced the birth of their first baby, Pailyn Philip. We thank Pailyn for waiting until we arrived to be born. Congrats to the new parents!!

We were grateful for our time spent with family and friends. We were sad it was only for a week, and that we didn't have time to visit all the family and friends that we would have liked to. We are looking forward to our next trip back to visit again :)

Below are some pics of Baby Pailyn and Vaishali's wedding... wait, not the wedding of baby Pailyn and Vaishali, but.... well, you get the point ;)
