Madness and beauty

It was madness!

Madness, I tell you!

And it was everywhere!!

Phillies madness, that is!

I was in Philadelphia this past weekend for an esthetics conference. It's a fun city; a busy, bustling city. And in the days leading up to the World Series - it was all about baseball! Fun!

But...


It was also about beauty...

And just like baseball, it was everywhere...


It was about smiles...

Are these not the cutest little things??!!


It was about some great food (Philly Cheesesteak, anyone?!)


Fabulous train rides...


It was about education...


It was about memories of two years ago...walking those same streets with my Sweet Hubby.


And because Matthew and his girlfriend, Stefanie, went with me - it was also about...


Thanks for a Phast, Phurious and Phun weekend in Philly!

"To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open." Revelation 3:7 NIV

What a fun getaway - and beautiful. No wonder you're supporting them in the World Series.

My son and DIL love Phillie Cheesesteak sandwiches - wish they could have the REAL thing.

Thanks everyone...

Tamela, I'm pretty sure they were pigeons! I was there with my youngest son and his girlfriend...Matthew was sick with a bad migraine for most of the weekend, but we managed to eek out a few memories... :)

Cool pics, Gigi! We live on the opposite coast, ad we've never been there. But there is so much history in that city....
