Is It That Time Already?

Yes, it's time.  Time to go back to "real" life.  Today is our last day in Pennsylvania.  Tomorrow (Sunday) we start our 35 hour drive back to The Land of Potatoes.  With Jordan's job, he finished up really well!  He was 5th in his office which is Great!  We have really enjoyed  being out here this summer! It has been a tremendous blessing in so many ways!  And what great memories we have created, friends we have made, and skills we have learned.  
Jordan decided not to work today and just help me pack and clean our apartment.  I'm so glad he did!  It was a lot of work!  I hate moving, and he's a pro mover so that's a bonus!
We took a few brakes throughout the day to enjoy some of our favorite Philly/East Coast treats.  We went to Rita's and got some water ice with custard on top, YUM!  I really don't know why they don't have water-ice anywhere else, 
it is so good!  We went to the Philly Pretzel Factory where the delicious pretzels are only $.50!  For dinner we went and got a Brick Oven Pizza.  I don't know why but pizza tastes so much better on the East Coast!  Then our last stop before going to bed was the WaWa to fill up our Jeep for the long trek tomorrow.   
 WaWa's have become this thing, kind of like the ABC store in Oahu, that's on every corner and if you haven't seen one in a while, you feel like something is wrong, like "what's missing from this picture?  Oh yeah, a WaWa."  
Well, this is the last post we will be making from Philly, so prepare yourself for a slowdown of blog posts and excitement. Hope you enjoyed it while it lasted!!  I know I did!  :)
