Let the Good Times Roll

We enjoy keeping active and have a fair share of similar interests. We both love to cook and bake. John has mastered homemade pizza, sauce and meatballs (known as “gravy” in John’s Italian household), and chocolate cakes. Steve has perfected chicken pot pie, and bakes the best chocolate chip banana bread! We like traveling to new places, trying new restaurants, and going to concerts just to name a few. The two of us can often be found being silly with the occasional snap chat filter and funny photo.

Traditions are an important thing in our household, such as:

• Family vacations in Sea Isle City, New Jersey with Steve’s immediate and extended family. This includes a week of beach days, boat rides in Steve’s dad’s boat, rides on the boardwalk, and the annual crabbing tournament. 
• Every few years in the fall we do our best to venture up to Steve’s alma mater, Penn State University, to enjoy a college football game with some friends. WE ARE!
• Weekends in the fall and winter are for exploring new soup recipes that we make and enjoy throughout the week.
• Christmas decorating happens the Saturday after Thanksgiving. We also dedicate one Saturday in December to bake Christmas cookies that we enjoy for weeks on end. 
• The Feast of Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve is an annual tradition in John’s family and something everyone looks forward to each year. 

We are excited to welcome a child into our family who can partake in the above traditions (and so many more), but to also begin creating new traditions
