PA Trip Pics

IT was a great weekend to head to the land of the Amish! We started our trip with a bonfire dinner with Ann, who just happened to be in PA too! Saturday we headed to the Kettle Kitchen Rhubarb Festival- All I could hear in my head the entire time I was there was Garrison Keely singing the rhubarb song! On Sunday we got to hang out with Alicia and Jay at Dutch Wonderland. Funny observation- Steph and I had visited the park when she first moved to Lancaster, and laughed at how "cheesy" it was. This time we saw it through the eyes of my two year old and had such a blast!!! Then after thoroughly exhausting my boys we headed back home to watch the series finally of Lost with Sherri and Jeff!!
