Day in Philly, Rehearsal & Dinner

This morning we had a couple of hours to go into the city and sight see a bit.

The Philadelphia Skyline


Independence Hall


The fam in front of Independence Hall


The Liberty Bell


Adeline and Grandma with a horse
Adeline loved all of the horses pulling the tourist carriages.
We had to save the memory :).


Adeline had her first ice cream cone - Strawberry, mmm!



Also today, of course, it being the night before the wedding, we had the rehearsal at the church followed by a dinner at a very fancy retirement home. A dear parishioner from the church where the groom, Aaron, is a priest treated us all to steak, salmon, wine and champagne. It was lovely!

Gathering, chatting, rehearsing, etc...




Grandma & Evelyn


Aunt Laura and Uncle Patrick


The Rehearsal Dinner






Beckie had the foresight to put us on the side of the room where there was some open space for the kids to run around and play a bit but be out of the way. I brought a couple of things to keep them occupied, and everything went very smoothly in that department! :)

Grandma loving her grand-girls


Late night. Tomorrow's the big day!
