White/Melli Annual Reunion

Jenny and Nick came to Philly! We've gotten to hang out with Nick in Philly quite a few times due to his work travel but this was the first time his lovely bride (aka my college roommate) was able to join him.


We did a lot of the fun Philly things...





And we even made it out to the Jersey Shore!


Jenny did a summer project in Ocean City, NJ so it was fun to visit her old stomping ground with her. 

She worked at Monkey Bread. She used to make this dangerously delicious dessert during our senior year in college.



This was the house where she lived with a bunch of other Crusade people.


It was the first time this summer Ben and I went swimming in the ocean (my plan to swim in the Pacific during our California trip didn't pan out) and it was so refreshing. It just doesn't feel like summer to me until I have completely submerged in salt water.


Couldn't resist taking them to our favorite German restaurant!


He really loves this place.


We really love them.



They even managed to come on a Sunday when Ben was preaching. I think our church must think that Ben has his friends fly in for his preaching engagements. Either way, I love that they get to hear him teach.



Thank you for taking the time to come see us! We look forward to the next Melli/White reunion, in whichever state that may be =)


A few weekends later, our other lovely roommate Valerie and her fiancé David (whom Ben and I got to see in Germany last Christmas) got married in Scotland. I was so sad I couldn't be there but am so happy for her and David. Are they not absolutely stunning!!! Love you Valerie xoxo
