We're engaged and that means we have parties

My parents threw us an engagement brunch party over Thanksgiving weekend in Philly. It was really nice. And of course, there was MORE family and MORE food. That's pretty much what the weekend was about. The whole thing was slightly overwhelming, but really sweet and great to have all those people together and wishing us well!

I don't have that many pictures of the actual party because I was busy saying hi to everyone and then bye to everyone (I seriously think that's all we did for 3 hours!), but here's a few and some I stole from Heather:


Bells on! (for Mom)


Chocolate chocolate cake - excellent! (We continued to eat this at every meal including breakfast the next couple of days.)


Lots of delectable delights


Omelette station


Thanks Mom and Dad - it was great!




Cutie!


Michael and Dad


Babies - eek!


Court, Erica, little Leah


High school girls plus additions


Last night - Tacconelli's pizza for Aunt Susan. This place is kinda crazy - it's a total dive in Fishtown, and you have to call in and reserve your dough. Once all the dough is reserved, they won't let anyone else make reservations for dinner. The white pizza is totally worth the trip though!


What's left after scarfing down 3 pizzas


Say pizza cheese!


Happy and fat
