This past Friday, I saw where Erica had mentioned that they were going to a kickball tournament in Harrisburg, PA. I turned to Jordan and asked him "How far is Harrisburg from us?". Turns out it was only about 3 hours, so we made plans to hop in the car early Saturday morning and head to Pennsylvania to surprise Erica & Todd. Here are some pictures from the tournament and Carlisle, PA. I will have more pictures from our exploration of Harrisburg later.
 |
| I didn't get a picture of us surprising them, didn't quite work out as planned. But there was a nice playground there and Carl and Jack immediately wanted to bring Aunt Erica over to play. |
 |
| Those kickballers were in excellent shape for the most part, I was kind of expecting a bit heftier group of people with it being, you know, kickball... |
 |
| Um, heeeey Erica |
 |
| Ewica, Ewica!!! Carl may have kinda sorta completely replaced his Mama with Auntie Erica during this adventure. |
 |
| Um Dada, I think that car may be a little small for you. |
 |
| Fearless little dude |
 |
| Carlisle, PA. There was a Ford show going on around there so Matthew was pretty happy car watching as we walked around. |
 |
| Not sure why, but I found this funny. |
 |
| These mock storefronts were inside an antique store and those are actual stores in the town. |
 |
| Gingerbread Man, NOT a candy store, I discovered. pout. |
 |
| A series of shots of my little monkey. |
 |
| We found a playground at a school where the previous shots were taken, then we walked down beside it to another park where we found these geese having a rest. |
 |
| Not a fan of this style of bridge. |
 |
| So idyllic. |
 |
| Splash pad! |
 |
| This boy right here, lookit that face!!! |
 |
| I think he might have liked it, what do you think? |
 |
| Whoooop! |
 |
| Such form! |
 |
| Awesomesauce castle around the corner from the splash pad, only way to get Carl away from the water. |
 |
| Other half. That kid right there was right in front of an amazing playground and chose to play on his dagburned phone! GAH! |
 |
| Poor little guy did so much walking, he was wiped out! |

 |
| Heh |
 |
| We had left Uncle Todd at the tournament so we headed back with the intent to get the boys to rest. |
 |
| No rest! |
 |
| There are kickballs and people!!! |
 |
| Uppy, uppy |
 |
| Poor Dada, got up before dawn and got the boys in the car and drove us the 3 hours here and the boys just won't let him rest! |
 |
| If Dada's laying down that means it's jungle gym time! |
