Summer Baseball Fun

I have never been a big baseball fan... but these days I am finding that it can be quite fun! The first baseball event of the summer was to the Delaware Blue Rocks Minor League team... we joined some Elon alum's for this adventure. We had great seats and the company was wonderful!

The second baseball event was for... The Phillies! Now I know that anyone from Philadelphia ADORES the Phillies with everything in them... I simply don't understand that level of commitment to a sports team... but I can play the game! (I think its a southern thing to be dedicated to college sports but not major league sports...) We spent time at McFadden's during the game and got to enjoy some cold blue moon's with CHOP friends and others. Katherine ( a Child Life Specialist I used to work with...) was in town so it was wonderful to see her! These baseball adventures were an all around good time with friends... looking forward to the DC Nationals game on the Fourth of July with my family!!!

The Lilly Pulitzer Wearhouse Sale

Every year, the Lilly sale gets a little bigger, a little more involved.

I don't mean the size or scope of the actual sale. I'm referring to our involvement in the sale. I knew we had reached a new level when I was asked "Where's our air mattress?!" We were excited to have Peggy in town for the sale. Here's the week's activities via pictures...

Tuesday --- Waiting for a ticket. Arrival 11am. Departure 7pm.

Wednesday --- The Lilly Pulitzer Wearhouse Sale opens! Arrival 4:45am. Departure 11am.

Saturday --- The Men's Sale. Arrival 7am. Departure 10am.

What a week... for the serious Lilly lovers, make sure that you follow Lilly on Facebook. They chose 20 people this year from their fans to get a tour of the corporate office and juice bar!

The fall date has already been announced... NOVEMBER 18 -21. Reservations at the Luther Resort and Spa are now open.

Our First Camping Trip

What an adventure!

It took some convincing to get LML out in the wilderness for a night. Not a weekend, just a night. You see, contrary to her brother's experiences, Brittany doesn't really camp. How Julie, Sam and Kate convinced her to do this, I'll never know.

We stayed at Cape Henlopen State Park in Lewes, Delaware. It's just down the street from the Cape May, NJ - Lewes, DE ferry. We had two sites next to each other in a nice wooded area . We were on the outskirts of the camp ground (which made for some quiet) and were able to walk to the beach.

There were some proud moments, like the tent going up,

and some challenging ones... mosquitos, a morning hail storm, and lack of a concierge lounge.

My full compliments to the A3 ladies for getting everyone together for the first of many +1 adventures.
