Welcome to Pittsburgh

This past week was so much fun. My mom and Gary came for a visit and just in the nick of time too. We have all been getting really homesick especially since we've been hearing about some really fun things our families have been doing so having some of our family out here with us was the perfect remedy.
The first two days they were here we took them to some of our favorite spots in Pittsburgh. We had lunch at Primanti Brothers and then took them for a ride on the Duquesne Incline.

Going up! {Don't you love Brady's Hitler mustache?

We went to one of my favorite stores, Gabriel Brothers. {It's a cross between DI and Ross.}

Braden is showing off his new jacket I got for him and the Indian Headdress 
Grammy Bo brought from Utah; he wore it just about everywhere we went!

We got frozen custard and Italian ice at Rita's.


We also took them to see Kam's School in Latrobe and then went to our favorite park, Mammoth Park, where the giant slide is.

This time Carter didn't like the slide. He only went 
down once, got scared and wouldn't do it again.
Braden went down about a hundred times.
Carter did like finding walking sticks with Pappy.

One of our favorite things to do at our house is play outside in the evenings. Even if it's been a really hot day it almost always cools down in the evenings so playing outside is a must. Usually all the neighbor kids are out playing with us but since most of them were out of town it was great to play with Grammy and Pappy.
