Travel Diary: Philly, NYC

Hey guys! I spent 10 days back on the east coast, and Lord was it stressful haha. I've been trying to find a positive twist on how to recap our trip but in some cases, honesty really is the best policy. I recorded a Coffey Break Chat yesterday talking about planning and how God will completely shut down everything to get our attention and reroute us in the right direction.

Now that I've gotten that out of the way haha. There were really were a few truly amazing highlights that I'd love to share with you guys.

We started out in Philly to visit one of my bests at UPenn, that's an Ivy League school btw for anyone who doesn't know, still so proud! lol Then we made our way up to New York and bounced back and forth between the city and Scarsdale with our wonderful friends turned family, The Squadrons. We were later joined by sweet Zoe and spent a few wonderful days in the city with Josias.

I also picked up a full-on addiction to strawberries topped with Nutella, and Prison Break -thanks a lot Maddy + Netflix... Binge watching anything is not conducive to productivity in my humble opinion, so I've basically spent the last week trying to restore balance and boundaries back into my life haha

Over the next week, I'll be rolling out daily highlights from the trip, and I'm so thankful to be racking up all these together time credits with Maddycita before she heads off for college.

Moral of the story? Resiliency is key. We can't control what happens to us, but we can control how we react. Have a great week you guys!

Peace, Love & Sunshine ~Chels

First stop, Philly!
