Art
Of course, Philly has lots of statues- there's so much history here it would be impossible not to have them. Philly also has some...interesting sculptures. Here are a few.
They also have a section dedicated to Monopoly. Yes, Monopoly. I like to think it's these types of pieces that add to the character of our City. Pretty neat, huh?

Liz visits Philly!
I'm a little late posting these pictures, but two weekends ago Liz came to visit our dear City. She had only been once before, to see a play, so I was excited to show her some of the sites. We went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art to walk Kelly Drive and see Boathouse Row (yes, same "tour" as with my parents...great place to see), visited our beloved Rocky, Old City, and the Liberty Bell. We also pulled the biggest tourist move and tried Pat's vs. Geno's. If you know anything about me and Liz, it probably won't surprise you that we were sisters divided- I'm a Geno's fan and she's a Pat's fan. Variety is the spice of life.

| Boathouse Row. This spot is my favorite in the whole city. |

| Pat's Rules...They aren't kidding. Not even a little bit. |
| The Liberty Bell, where a little girl walked up, sighed, and opted not to take her picture with the Bell. Not as impressive as some think it's going to be, but a piece of our history nonetheless. |
Babypalooza 2011 continues...
With visits to see Will and Andrew, the newest member of the Misleh family. Like BFF Will, Andrew decided to come about ten days early but considering the terrible August heat, I think Mommy and Daddy were just fine with that! Will smiled pretty much the whole time I was with him and LOVES his bouncer (see blurry picture, best I could do). Andrew had put up quite a fuss the night before I met him, so most of the time I saw him he was sleeping, but he did open his eyes for a few moments, which Rommie luckily caught on camera. Adorable little boys!
