This past weekend Kyle, Declan, & I made the 8/9 hour trek home to visit our hometowns. On Friday we stayed in Lehighton and Saturday & Sunday we stayed in Bethlehem. It's a really neat experience when you don't live where you grew up and you bring your child to that place. Life really comes full circle. This visit was really two-fold. My very best friends each had sons this past July and I wanted to meet them and for Declan to meet them before they got too big. The other reason I just Autumn at home. It's so beautiful. We always try and get home in the Fall. This weekend was packed with visits with family & friends, dinners, hitting up fav eateries, laughter, wine, & lots of reminiscing & story telling. Never enough time but always enough love. Highlights included visits with grandparents and great grandparents, watching Pop-pop at church, playing with cousins, getting "Yocco'd", family dinner at 3640, Sunday morning with the McMonagles & Haldemans, Olivia & Declan hamming it up, & JPKs chocolate cake.
