Pre Wedding

We headed out as a family to State College, PA.  Do you know how long it takes to get there?  We did enjoy the Pennsylvania countryside.
We got on our first flight, backed up from the gate, and waited.  It started to get warm:-(  The pilot informed us that they could not get the right engine started.  Fortunately, we had time between connections.  The mechanics went to work and we were off and flying in no time.

Flying can be exhausting.  The Big Guy and I chuckled over the head bobbing, neck rolling, twitching and mouth breathing going on!

 Gotta get some pretzels when you are in PA.  We did enjoy the UTZ sourdough.
 We stopped to change clothes and freshen up.  Who knew?  We'd come this far to see a sign congratulating Pumpkin on his graduation.  Shhh!  Don't tell him that it is probably not for his high school.
 All changed and ready to head to the casual rehearsal dinner party.
 On the morning of the wedding, we hit the trail heading toward Beaver Stadium.
To clarify, my boys ran and I walked.  This was a welcomed site to see them come running back toward me.
 I know the Big Guy was taking it all in running with his sons.  The only bummer was the weather.  It was unseasonably hot seemed like we brought the Memphis heat/humidity with us.
Two of them jumped right into the cold pool.  They both said it was refreshing.  But, they did not stay in too long.
We had pizza on campus and stopped by the Berkey Creamery to try some yummy ice cream.  If I had to go back to school, I just might study ice cream making!
We headed back to the resort to hang out a bit with family before the wedding.  More to come in the next post...

We were wondering why we were having 90º weather! Thanks. ;D We all are so burnt from Saturday, but never got to the pool! We've also eaten ice cream there at PSU too! I think everyone contemplates getting an ice cream degree, because really, who wouldn't love that?! Can't wait to hear more.
