NJ and PA

Friday August 9th, the four of us drove down to NJ for an, ahem, 40th birthday party. Yes, Steve and his friends are all turning 40 this year and Neha was throwing a party for Netesh that was on a day we could make it! It was so amazing to be in the same place with so many of Steve's friends and their wives after so long. Us and the Capobianco's stayed with the Gohil's all weekend and the adults and kids all had a really great time. Unfortunately, we pushed the kids a little too far (up too late, no nap and lots of activity) and Jacob ended up quite sick on our trip home. Another bummer was that I did not bring my camera to the actual party and have no pictures of my own or of any adults! I will have to post an addendum to this post if I can get Neha to share a few with me. We were in Flemington, NJ which is not too far from Easton so on Saturday we drove over to visit with Uncle Eddie and Aunt Pat! Matt and Amy joined us and we had a lovely visit.

The boys were allowed in all of Ed's cars, even the Metro.

So close....

Steve was so excited to check out Ed's crazy mower.  It is a lot of property to keep up with so it makes sense for him.  Steve was so jealous and was whipping around the yard.

Not quite.

All together now!

Back at the Gohil's, the boys got the ball stuck between the rim and the backboard and had to use Kieran and a boogie board to clear it.

Ice cream!

Movie night.

And then it was time for us to leave.  It wasn't long after this picture that Jacob has his first barf of the day.  The poor kid.  I thought if we just got him in the car he would sleep, but when we got him in the car, he threw up everywhere.  So, we let him nap while we washed everything and hit the road again.  We made it to a rest area on the Merritt Parkway and he threw up again all over himself, me and even into my bag.  I had to strip us down in the parking lot.  Modesty just does not exist for me anymore.  He was much better the very next day but that was a long ride home!
