Congrats Kelsey!

We spent last weekend in Pittsburgh celebrating Kelsey's graduation. It was a quick trip - we arrived at about 11:30 Friday night, ate breakfast at Pamela's (a Lloyd favorite) the next morning, walked around the Strip District, watched Kelsey graduate, hung out at Station Square, ate dinner at Buca di Beppo, rode up the incline to see an amazing view of the city at dusk, watched the marathon and headed home around noon on Sunday! Whew!
Kim and I decided there must be a dress code for pregnant ladies - this is how we both looked as we walked out of our hotel rooms Saturday morning! Saturday was exactly 2 months from her due date and 6 months from mine!
Thank goodness for Malachi's CD player and some popcorn. They worked wonders at keeping him quiet and happy for the entire 2-1/2 hours of graduation!
Erik and Blake needed a pre-dinner snack after graduation, but we arrived at Moe's at 5:02! They settled for some pizza from a local place.
As we were walking up to Station Square, I saw some kids playing in the spray from the water fountain. Malachi had gone in the other car with GranMols and Papaw and as soon as I said that I hoped he wasn't wet, this is what I saw! He was soaked!
The kids loved the trip up the Duquesne Incline and the view from the top was incredible.
Blake ran the half marathon and finished in 1:59:29. Erik ran the full and finished in 3:15:54. Way to go, guys!

I laughed at the comment "Hope Malachi isn't wet"...what did you think, he was under the care of his grandparents? That is something I can see me experiencing one day too. Loved the pregnancy twin look.

Congrats Kelsey!

Please ask your mom if she can do some repairs on Annie's doll. She did a number on it.
