This last weekend was special for our family on multiple levels. We had the opportunity to spend a few days in Peoria with Melissa's family, culminating with the marriage of Shelly and Scott! We were able to spend time relaxing with family, meeting our new nephew "baby Pete," and eating some great food! We indeed had a great time, but the time went too quickly.
This trip was different than all other trips to Peoria because of our two world's colliding. Having time in their schedules, Paul's three sisters were able to head down to Peoria for 24 hours to hang out and get a 'taste of Peoria.' They came to the wedding reception and met much of Melissa's family, whom they had not seen since our wedding nearly five years ago! On Saturday, we all met at 5 Guys Burgers and Fries for a delicious lunch! Although we didn't get to spend a lot of time together, the opportunity to spend time with both our families is something we will hold dear to us for a long time.
