Back to the Broomall!

This past weekend I went home!  Can't believe it was over a month since I had been in Broomall and it was really nice to be back "in the ol' stomping ground!"

I was able to work from home on Friday, so I took the train home on Thursday night.  My Mom picked me up at the train station to the surprise of Victoria and Sean.  They had no idea I was coming home on Thursday night - so it was fun to see their faces when I walked up to the car!

I worked all day Friday and then my Mom, Victoria and I went to grab a bite to eat Friday night after my Mom dropped off Sean and his friends at the dance (oh to be in 7th grade again!).

Saturday morning and afternoon we went to see Pelé - I mean Sean - play two soccer games. He is so talented and so much fun to watch! Take a look at these shots of him in action:

After passing the ball to his teammate.

Calling for the ball to take down field!

Headed towards the goal!

Right after he crossed the ball to his teammate!

Then on Sunday we went to a Memorial Walk/Run for a friend of mine who passed away in a car accident almost two years ago. He was a dear friend and a champion of the pro-life cause and it was so nice to have tons people come out in his memory to support his cause and his family.

Sunday afternoon we went to another one of Sean's soccer games - he had another goal during this game!  Then Patrick and Karen came over for dinner after Mass!

The weekend recap cannot be complete without highlighting all of the delicious food my Mom made - she was busy all week preparing and we could definitely tell!

We had her specialty chicken steak and regular steak sandwiches with roasted potatoes and broccoli on Saturday night and then chicken cutlet with pasta and garlic bread on Sunday night!  Lucky for me - I got a ton of leftovers for delectable-Delco-dinners for the week!  A mamma Noons dinner is something else - I may be as bold to say that you haven't lived until you've tasted her dishes!

It was so nice to see my Mom, brothers and sisters and of course hang out with Misty!  If only Regina was home from college - we missed her a lot but she is up at Penn State having a great time and doing so well!  We Are! PENN STATE!  

A taste (figuratively and literally) of home is just what I needed to refuel me for a little while - and then soon I will need another dose of home to keep me going again! :)
