this is hardcore

We just got back from Philadelphia monday night. I brought my computer with intentions to blog while we were gone. We ended up being super busy plus the hotel we stayed in Friday and Saturday night didn't have free WIFI. What is up with fancy hotels making you pay so much for internet when it's free at all the cheaper ones?! 

We went to Philly for This Is Hardcore Fest. It is a 3 day music fest that we go every year (2010, 2011) and Dave and I actually met/I got his number 5 years ago. I brought our camera and it sat in the diaper bag the whole weekend. At least I took some on my phone plus I stole some of my friends pics to post.

Dave's table was inside Friday 

Dan and Elinor

Elinor and Ryan

Elinor and her baby friend Gabe

There was a 3rd floor balcony that was found out about. It wasn't crowded so I was able to watch bands and feed Elinor. She then passed out for the night.

We brought the stroller this time.

Saturday the table was moved outside

Our friend Brooke made Elinor a super cool shirt with Daddy's band on it

Ryan and Jen trying out being parents at brunch

PA dutch fest happens every year at Reading Terminal Market. I didn't get pictures of the animals this time.

Then Travis came to play

and then the rain came and ruined everything. Shirts and records soaked! We closed up the table and decided to start fresh on Sunday

She passed out really early missing Lifetime and Gorilla Biscuits

Again on the third floor balcony sleeping with Travis on the couch

Sunday the table moved again. This was the best spot. I wish we were there the whole weekend.

Brooke brought a gate so the babies got some floor play time

going wild. Elinor ate a snow cone after this. It was so hot so Dave got her one with just the ice. She ate the whole thing

if you look close you can see Elinor and I on the right watching Dave play

Besides Saturday and the terrible rain we had a lot of fun. Elinor loves shows. Whenever people would walk up to the table to buy something she would get so excited because obviously they were there to see her not to buy anything. She also started dancing to music at this fest. She is the best! 

FOUND

We found the shoes Dave wanted and the pillow pet! Even though it wasn't the small pillow pet and she called us out but she was still happy with it. The shoes I wanted from the GAP I realized are leather so no shoes for me :( I don't know why I didn't think to look especially with them being so expensive.

We made tofu scramble the other day that came out pretty good. It would've been better if I didn't use so much cayenne pepper. The recipe called for paprika or chili powder which we didn't have. So I put in 1/4 of what it called for using cayenne pepper. Oh well, we will get paprika for next time. I put some Daiya cheese on top to offset the heat which worked a little even though it would've been better without if it wasn't so hot.

Dave made me a fake sausage heart :)

I got all dressed up and really liked my outfit but then the rain came and never stopped. So I ended up changing later.

pizza and rain

It rained ALL day. It would've been nice if I was in bed and didn't have to drive all day. We decided we didn't want to cook tonight so we got a pizza to go at peace o pie. I'm already wanting to go to sleep but I told Dave I would help him do some work.
