Rest of Pittsburgh/Virginia and then some!









Pittsburgh was SO beautiful in the spring!



So Its always amazing to me how fast the summers go when I'm back home and looking back over them. This summer was nothing short of crazy, eventful and entertaining! When we first got to Pittsburgh the apartments the company put us in were pretty scary so we had a few laughs for the week we had to stay there! We then moved to a Marriott Extended stay right in the heart of the city. I LOVED IT!! We were right across from PNC park and within walking distance of children's museums, walking path along the bridges and rivers and a bakery I learned to love! We stayed in that hotel for 3 weeks and then moved to another Marriott just outside of the city where we stayed for 2 months! Then we moved AGAIN to another Marriott in Winchester VA. I loved the entertainment at our disposal in the first Marriott not to mention they provided delicious complimentary breakfasts every morning and even dinners 3 times a week! And housekeeping was AMAZING at the first Marriott! The second Marriott still provided breakfasts and dinner but the housekeeping services weren't as nice. I did really like one of our housekeepers though named Lynda! I think every girl from this summer would agree she was like a friend to us. Watching the help this last week made me think a little bit of Lynda. She was always so funny and nice and went out of her way for us. The girls would send her home with goodies and things to show our appreciation! She was a nanny for 17 years for a family before going to work at the Marriott! Kaleb loved her as well she was always so patient with him when he got in her way and she would joke and play with him! I only stayed at the Winchester hotel for 2 weeks because I ended up flying home to visit on July 5th. I loved Winchester though it was so beautiful and had a historic charming feel to it. They also were the only hotel this summer with an outdoor pool which if your going to be outside your going to want to be in the water! Here's some highlights of this summer!
