PA FUN, here we come!! Part 4...

 James had Aunt Miriam up early and got right down to baking and having kitchen snacks before breakfast πŸ˜πŸ˜‚...OH the things Aunties are willing to do!! 

πŸ’•So, SO sweet!!πŸ’–

The breakfast spread was quite fabulous again!!
Who gets homemade cookies for breakfast?!  Yes, she is that good.

Uncle Bread (or Brad, but preferably BREAD to his nephewsπŸ˜†) took the boys to do some more exploring while we gals chatted and packed up...they were SO IMPRESSED by all the machines and buildings!!

Then we headed downtown to Kennett Square to explore the shops!! 
(Trying to Facetime GrandpaπŸ‘‡and say Happy Father's Day amidst the chaos of eight people walking in all different directionsπŸ˜‚...we tried!!)
Kennett Square is the cutest "Mushroom Capital"!! Mushrooms are everywhere! 

We had a lovely time sampling all the culinary delights...

Apparently some of us even rode unicorns...πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜‚

We tried out all the mushrooms we could find...

πŸ˜†πŸ˜†We thoroughly enjoyed sampling EVERYTHINGπŸ˜†πŸ˜†

😍😍So much sweetness😍😍
More fabulous food...
And a "BRO" Coke to go with!!! 
Somebody finally got a little sleepy...😘
πŸ’ž Love my SIS!!!πŸ’ž
She's going to be such a wonderful mother!!
So then we headed to Michoacana...the local Mexican Ice Cream Parlor...
😲😲Have you EVER HEARD of such ICE CREAM flavors????  Corn?! Avocado?!  
And they top those with Cinnamon and Chili Powder!!! 😲😲
We did not get that wild but enjoyed the calmer flavors just fine...
We shivered outside in the rare June chill while we ate ice cream and celebrated two awesome Dad's for Father's Day!!


Thank you SO MUCH to Uncle Bread and Aunt Miriam for hosting us for such a FABULOUS weekend!!!  
We were treated like royalty and had a blast!!!
