Life Lately: Pennsylvania Farm Show, a Wrestling Tournament, Coffee with a Friend

Sunday, January 18, 2015
I am waking up early this Sunday morning in central Pennsylvania. We are here for the weekend visiting my sister and her family. It's been a jam-packed weekend so far, and we still have a full day today. Tomorrow we'll be heading back to New Jersey.

On Friday night, we headed to the Pennsylvania Farm Show, an annual event held in Harrisburg and the largest indoor agricultural exposition in the nation, with nearly 6,000 animals, 10,000 competitive exhibits and 300 commercial exhibits. It had been almost 20 years since my last visit to the PA Farm Show.

I know what you're thinking...what's a beach girl who loves fashion and beauty doing at a farm show? Well, I won't lie...I was kind of there for the food. I was also there to see the cute animals, like bunnies and goats. Oh, and there was wine tasting from local wineries, too.

I was completely impressed by the Land O Lakes butter sculpture.


At first glance, we thought these kids were puppies tagging along with the mama goat.


For us beach dwellers, a chance to pet a horse is a big deal.


Yesterday, my nephew was in a wrestling tournament. It was our first chance to see him in action on the mat.




He placed 2nd!

This morning I am meeting a bestie from high school and college for a coffee date. I'm excited to catch up with her. We haven't seen each other since July, and she's recently graduated from nursing school. We are due for a little celebration at Starbucks.

What have you been up to this weekend? School activities? Kids' sports? Or maybe you've been lucky enough to spend the weekend kicking back and relaxing. However you spent it, I hope it was a good one! xx
