Johnson Family

Ryan and I took a trip out to Philadelphia and New Jersey/New York last weekend and had a blast. We spent Friday in Philly, and then headed out to spend the rest of the weekend with Jeff, Laura, Logan and Caleb in New Jersey. Philadelphia was a lot of fun, full of history...and unfortunately rain! After seeing Independence Hall, the Liberty Bell, Betsy Ross' house, Ben Franklin's printing office and getting some authentic Philly cheesesteak, we headed to the ballgame, only to walk around the park for 2 1/2 hours and get rained out. We headed out to Jersey Saturday and got to see Logan and meet Caleb (both ADORABLE and GREAT kids!). We were able to see the 10th to last game at Shea Stadium, and the 7th to last game at Yankee Stadium (as well as Derek Jeter's homerun which tied him for most career hits at Yankee Stadium, and Yogi Berra). Jeff was a great tour guide, and we saw more of Manhattan than I knew existed! After our "motivated feet" finally stopped moving, we headed back to Michigan to pick up Melodie. We had a great time with Jeff, Laura and the boys, and are looking forward to going back for the new Yankee and Shea stadiums and a make-up Phillies game. Thanks for a great weekend Jeff and Laura, anytime you want to come out to Milwaukee to see...umm, the bronze Fonz from Happy Days, let us know! ;)
