We were lucky to be able to fly out to Pennsylvania to see Spencer's brother Jeff graduate from Dental School at Temple University. The trip was very short, but very sweet. I was so sad to leave; it was so much fun. It was such an important time for Jeff and his family after all their hard, hard work and we wouldn't have missed it for the world. He graduated 10th in his class. Congratulations, Jeff and Janell. We are so proud of you!
Even though our time was limited, we really did so much. Janell's sister, Stacy, and her husband Jason, and their kids came and so did Janell's parents, so it made for a full group but things went so smoothly and everyone got along really well. There is a fantastic park nearby where everyone went to play. Spencer and Jeff messed around with the football while the kids ran wild. We got to go to The Shady Maple, which seriously has the best breakfast ever. Sweet Potato Pancakes are the best and I don't even like sweet potatoes. We were even able to go to Downtown Philly for a tiny bit since Jeff graduated there. There were fun adventures on the drive home from graduation. The guys even managed to find time to golf. It was a fantastic trip. Thanks for letting us come guys. We love you!

Looks like a fun time out there in Philly!
How very exciting for Jeff! I can only imagine the relief that comes at graduation, we still have a long way to go. That's awesome that your family was able to be there to support him. Looks like you had a great time.
Erin you look so cute!! did you go even lighter??
Wow, it was a crazy couple of days! It wouldn't have felt complete without you guys there. It really was the perfect trip! Thanks again so much for coming! It really meant so much to all of us! My favorite part was the "adventures" on the way home from graduation. I'll never forget it! haha! Thanks for the great post!
