"Gabe's Gang" @ the Easter Seals "Walk with Me" 5k

Getting out of the van in morning it was still a bit chilly.... but it warmed up fast!Gabe was ready to go and was very consistent in telling us so!! (haha!)Gabe's Gang!!

Ed, Nicole, Jeremy, Dan (you can only see the top of his hat!) Shannon, Shawn, Bernie, and Adam, and of course the team captains Kari & Gabe!

Dan took 1st place in his age category (Adam took second) and Jeremy got 3rd!!!

It was a great day and an inspiring event, we beat our fundraising goal- check out our Team Page!

After the race there was food, music, and a little fair at the end and.... Gabe got a tattoo!!

He didn't even last 5 minutes in the van when we headed home!! It was a fun and tiring day!!

Gabe, knocked out on the way home, sporting his Elmo "tattoo"

a night out on CHOP

My friend Shani works at CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia) and invited me to a dinner to honor one of the surgical practices. It was semi-formal and down in Philly. We got "Doll"ed up and had a great time. Thanks so much Shani for having me as your guest! It was great fun!

Oh Yeah, that's a LEMON DROP!!!The restaurant was really cute it had Olive lights above the tables in the initial dining area and these really cute tables, etc, we were in one of the back dining areas, a little more quiet, nice for conversation. Shani is holding a carrot cake dessert, so cute!! A cute picture with the lights of the other bars/restaurants behind Shani Ditto- there I am, feeling very little pain after a few LEMON DROPS!

As I said Continental is a Steven Starr restaurant, I actually think I am going to try all of his Philly restaurants, he has a couple in NY and AC (Atlantic City- just in case!!)
