It was definitely a quick weekend.  Whew, Alyssa and Luke were surely traveling on the Marsh schedule and putting together one last hurrah before all of Luke's sports seasons start!  They came out to Pittsburgh for a Pirates game!!

While they were here, we were able to do a tiny bit of site seeing, we went up to Mt. Washington to give them the best view of the city. We also made sure to hit up Primanti's before going to the baseball game. It was a gorgeous afternoon, so we sat outside and enjoyed our meal. Taylor and Katie met up with us too. No one can turn down Primanti Brothers!

 
A taste of Pittsburgh! Pirmanti Bro’s!

After we thoroughly enjoyed our food, we stopped and grabbed Soren from the side of the road. Soren works in the lab next to mine and was here solo for a few months doing his post doc while his wife and little one were back in Germany! We had so much fun the last time they were in Pittsburgh, so of course we started where we left off and Soren was coming along on our many "family" adventures whether wanted to or not - hah!

 
Cannot get enough of this view! We love PNC park!

Once we got to the game, it of course started pouring... like buckets of rain, haha! We waited it out, and it quickly passed. The game was nice, and the view spectacular. It was so nice to have Alyssa and Luke visit for a quick weekend! I hope we can do it again, bring the little kids and really let the party begin!! Winsand reunion!

 
Ice cream in the cold weather, why not?

I should also mention that around the same time we welcomed other Wisconsin visitors for a quick dinner. Jera and her hubby were out visiting for a Pirates game, and catching a few ballparks on their road trip east for a conference! We had the pleasure of having them over and showing them our place after they did some self touring of Pittsburgh!  The Wisconsin visitors were flowing in - which always makes me VERY happy!  Thanks so much for stopping through, and let this be an invitation to others who want to venture east! :)
