What's Up with the Girls

🇺🇸 Happy Birthday, America! ❤️🤍💙

As two girls who grew up just outside Philadelphia, we’ve always felt incredibly fortunate to call the birthplace of our nation home. From Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was debated and adopted, to the Liberty Bell, the Betsy Ross House—where tradition holds that Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag—along with Valley Forge, Washington Crossing, and Gettysburg just a short drive away, we’re surrounded by the places and stories that helped shape our nation.

Living here has given us a deep appreciation for our country’s history, the sacrifices made for our freedom, and the incredible legacy that continues to inspire generations.

As America celebrates 250 years of independence, we hope you’ll take a moment to reflect on our shared history, celebrate with those you love, and create new memories of your own.

From our family to yours, we wish you a safe, happy, and meaningful Fourth of July.

Happy 250th, America! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

🚂 BIG BOY FEVER! 🚂

WOW! Our Big Boy 4014 adventure at Steamtown has now passed 6,000 views and is still growing!

To everyone who watched, liked, commented, shared, and subscribed—THANK YOU. We truly appreciate every single one of you.

We’ve welcomed so many new followers over the past few days, and we’re excited to have you along for the ride! Whether you’ve been with us since day one or just discovered What’s Up With The Girls through our Big Boy coverage, we’re so glad you’re here.

Like so many railfans, we were absolutely blown away seeing Big Boy 4014 in person and witnessing the incredible excitement surrounding its visit to Scranton. The energy, the crowds, the history, and the passion for railroading made it an experience we’ll never forget.

And the adventure isn’t over yet! We plan to continue following Big Boy 4014 as it makes its way toward Philadelphia for the America’s 250 celebration, so stay tuned for more videos, updates, and behind-the-scenes moments from along the route.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. We’re just as excited as everyone else to see where the Big Boy heads next!

All aboard! 🚂❤️

What's Up with the Girls

Happy Father’s Day to our dads, Jim and Wes. 💙

Today, we find ourselves thinking about all the little things that made them who they were.

The stories.
The laughter.
The family trips.
The music they loved.
The movies they watched.
The lessons they taught us.
And the memories that somehow get funnier and more meaningful as the years go by.

We remember bike rides without training wheels, learning how to drive, checking the oil, filling a tire, and all the practical life lessons that seemed ordinary at the time but became priceless later.

We remember trips to Florida, days at the shore, roller coasters, diners, old movies, old songs, and late-night bowls of ice cream that somehow always found room after dinner.

We remember one dad who could tell a story about anything and another who could make an entire room laugh—or cry during a movie.

What we’ve realized is that even though they’re gone, they’re still here.

They’re in the songs we listen to.
They’re in the places we travel.
They’re in the stories we tell.
They’re in the values they passed on to us.

And every time Deb and I sit down to share our lives, our adventures, and our memories on What’s Up With The Girls, a little piece of both of them comes along for the ride.

Happy Father’s Day, Dad and Wes.

We miss you.
We love you.
And we carry you with us everywhere we go. ❤️

What's Up with the Girls

This Memorial Day, we remember. 🇺🇸

Today we honor the brave men and women who gave everything so we could live freely, chase our dreams, travel, laugh, love, and make memories together.

Their courage and sacrifice are the reason this ragged old flag still stands.

As Johnny Cash said,
“’Cause I’m mighty proud of this ragged old flag.”

From backyard bonfires to lakeside sunsets, family gatherings to quiet moments of reflection — may we never forget the heroes who made these freedoms possible.

We remember.
We honor.
We are forever grateful. ❤️

Happy Mother’s Day to the two amazing women who have not only been our moms… but who have somehow survived us being best friends since we were 12 years old. 😂💕

Through every phase, every adventure, every late-night conversation, every crazy idea, every trip, every laugh, and probably plenty of chaos along the way — you’ve both loved and supported us endlessly.

We’re incredibly lucky that our friendship brought us not just one amazing mom each… but two moms to love, celebrate, and look up to. 💖

Thank you for always being there, always cheering us on, and always reminding us what love, strength, and family truly mean.

We love you both more than words can say. 🌸✨

Happy Mother’s Day!
Love,
What’s Up With The Girls 💕
