Rockin' good ol' Rochester

If you ever want to see the nostalgic side of Sunil and I, just bring up Rochester, NY. We won't stop talking or smiling. It was the best two years of our pre-kid days. There's something very sweet about this town. It's small and quaint with neighborhoods that have large front and backyards. Lots of Mom and Pop restaurants and roads that make you laugh with all the potholes.

We went there this past weekend for a 25th Anniversary party for the AAIR group. It was wonderful from the start. Just being able to hold hands at the airport and not a stroller was very different for us! Of course, we were calling Sunil's parents more than they called us to check on the kids. Thankfully, outside of plenty of ice cream and tv, they were just fine.

Seeing my old friend April was awesome for me as Sunil got to meet her husband and we googled over their baby girl, Izzy. It was a short breakfast but we crammed as much talking and laughing as we could.

We drove all over Rochester - we went to the Red Cross office where I worked, Strong Memorial Hospital, where he worked, ate at our favorite restaurants, and even drove by the golf courses we used to play at. But one thing bummed me out was the Krispy Kreme place we used to eat at closed! We were looking forward to warm gooey donuts...free when the red light is on. But oh well, at least we did all we could in a weekend.

Everyone at AAIR was thrilled to see us and it was so nice to be in their company. Something about Rochester always makes feel warm inside. Hmmm...love that town.
