Vacation, Part I ? Gates Family Blog

I just realized I never published my vacation posts! Let?s see, when was vacation? Oh yeah, end of June. A little late, Brianne?

We had a really nice week off seeing both sides of the family, first my brother and his family near State College, and then Tim?s family out in the Pittsburgh area. Due to the face that I have a bazillion photos, I will divide these posts into two parts.

So first up was State College/Hollidaysburg. It started with lunch and a stroll around Penn State?s?campus. So many wonderful memories come flooding back when walking around my old stomping grounds. From there, I met up with some PSU friends at a baby shower for another close college friend. It is always exciting to see old friends and meet their growing families. I also found out at this baby shower that my brother and sister-in-law are expecting baby #4 in January! So exciting!

We spent the next 4 days with Sean?s family and my dad along with Emily?s parents who were so gracious to let us stay at their beautiful home. The boys shared many giggles playing outside and wrestling indoors. We hiked at Shaver?s Creek, picked berries (right on their property!), visited an Amish flea market, went swimming at Greenwood Furnace, ate smores by the fire? it was the perfect blend of exploring and relaxing.
