Christmas in Philly

We spent Christmas 2012 in Philly enroute to Atlanta of course! We took the long way around from KC:-) We spent time with Adam's folks and brother seeing the sights and staying mostly out of the cold on the wintery days.

We enjoyed art and some singing and then met up with some Sidor friends, chinese is always a hit! 
The night walk with the lights at Longwood Gardens was beautiful. I'm not sure the photos do it justice but it was a wonderful display and we were sure to drink plenty of hot chocolate! 




The indoor tropical portion was fantastic and they had decorated palmtrees and orchids to match the season. 





On Christmas day Adam received his MUCH anticipated yoga computer. I loved the name and we had been to Best Buy to look at it several times. He was SO excited to play with it and spent several days figuring out how it works so that he would be ready for when grad school starts. I like playing games on the touchscreen!  

I'm not sure who was more surprised when I got an ipad, me or Adam. We all wished we had taken a photo of his face! We are all set with technology to begin our lives in Georgia! 

We took an afternoon to treck around Philly and then ate a wonderful dinner at the restaurant Adam's brother has been helping at (http://www.willbyob.com/). 


We spent the last wintery day at Washington's winter camp. Lots of interesting history a we really could tell how they might have felt the months they lived there with snow on the ground!
