2012!!!

We spent this New Years weekend with relatives in Pittsburgh, PA.

coming through the tunnel... (this was actually taken on
the way home, but its a good way to start a post:)
Pittsburgh

Friday we ate lunch at Wholey's Fish Market in the Strip District, and then went ice skating before dinner.  


some weary skaters

We played games...
Swish
Quiddler
Rook - an extended family favorite
 ...And did hair... A LOT.




Even the boys tried their hand at it



We visited...


 On New Year's Eve we went downtown for Pittsburgh's First Night where we enjoyed fireworks and some neat shows.




waiting for the show to begin 

we had a great view of the River City Brass Band's
EXCELLENT  performance.

On New Years Day we had a delicious meal at the Hall's house and a nice time relaxing.

Nana and Grandpa were very gracious to let us stay at their house even though they were away most of the time we were there.
