Jersey Pics

Here's a run through in no particular order of my trip home to Jersey.

Me & my wonderful sisters went to The Melting Pot in Philadelphia... if you haven't been its a trendy fondue place (look it up..I highly recommend it). Besides the wonderful dessert you see below, the highlight of my night was getting kicked by a bum..well, I should say he attempted to trip me & potentially take my purse, BUT I have cat like reflexes & saw it coming.



I went down to Wildwood with my mommy, sister Ange, and we brought my lil brother Brandon & my niece & nephew Alissa & Jared. We did the beach, pool, boardwalk, rides, games, etc etc. It was a fun time!











My main reason for going home of course was for my friend Elaine's wedding. Here is Elaine & her new husband Jeff. They make a gorgeous couple, and the wedding was beautiful!


I went to Atlantic City with my Grandmom & Grandpop & Aunt Lori while I was home...we spent the day gambling then ended the day with lunch on the boardwalk...Mmm cheese steaks & boardwalk fries!!


Then I met up with my sisters & Ange's friends so we could celebrate Ange's 23rd Birthday in AC ... we went to a good comedy show at the Tropicana where my Dad & step mom Pat met up with us...then us laidies headed out on the town. Here are me & my sisters before a night out, Ange & her g/fs, and my sister having too much fun..





I got to see Isabelle while I was home...shes hangin on, God bless her.
Me & my brother, yes those are vampire teeth in my mouth =)


A BBQ at my moms...we had a good time playting t-ball with the kids. Highlight, by far my 50 year old Dad diving like 5 feet to catch the ball and OUT a 6 year old..Competitive much?!



I also spent my time EATING...doing lots and lots of eating. Pizza, wings, hoagies, cheese steaks, Italian, Seafood, Wawa, boardwalk fudge, Ritas gelatis, cannollis (sp?), chinese (yes, I know I live near China, & one would think the chinese here would be good, but its nothing like what us Mainland people eat). Since I devoured most of my food, I couldn't quite take pics..but heres a few of my fav.'s... Time to start dieting so I can lose that weight I gained :-/


All in all I had a great trip home. Its always good to see family & friends but I did miss my hubby & the girls (our kitties), AND my relaxing lifestyle!

Sorry for not blogging for so long. We get lazy. We'll try to change our ways.

Rachel, it looks like you ate your way through your trip. Glad you had a good time, even though you didn't stop here. Just kidding. Remind me never to cross you. Bri, watch your back!!!
