Natalie and Robert

Natalie and Robert were my first real friends here in Philly. At a time when I was lonely, homesick, and frustrated with the way life was going, they stepped into our lives and became our besties. We have so much in common with them, including our tendency to lean left politically (some of us are leaning more than others :D), our love of Philly, and our ability to be entertained for hours by youtube videos of cats. So we were so sad when they moved away to Seattle about a year ago.

So, of course we were thrilled when they came back to visit Philly last month. And we were especially thrilled when they wanted to spend time with us while they were here!

I'm embarrassed by how few pictures I took while they were here. I guess I just had too much fun. I took a couple days off work and it was perfect. We enjoyed the weather (which cooperated nicely the entire time they were here), reminisced, enjoyed Philly, ate at places that I would never usually eat at (and yes Natalie, they were excellent. You win), played croquet several times, played our usual mini golf course (here's a reminder of the scores, just in case the boys forgot),

lamented that Naked Chocolate was closed, ate a ton, and just had an all around good time.

Here are a couple of the photos that I did get.

Thanks a million guys. We hope it's not long before we get to do this again. We miss you.
