Snapshots of New York

It was a whirlwind of a trip.
We were only there for about 45 hours, but we packed in everything we possibly could.



We saw Chicago at the Ambassador Theater

We quickly fell in love with the big city.

After the show we walked all through Times Square then over to the delicious Magnolia Bakery for some cupcakes.

And don't get me started on Central Park!
Absolutely amazing.

We hit up the Guggenheim...

then got yogurt...

we had a quick distraction as Jeff spotted another doodle. We saw tons! And every time Jeff would run off to confirm that it was in fact a doodle.
Hilarious.

We strolled to the west side of the park to visit the American Museum of Natural History.
The MET was also a site we really wanted to see, but its closed on Mondays.

Monday night we took the subway to Yankee Stadium for a game.

About half way through the game we couldn't resist any longer and bought some "Fried Dough"
It did not disappoint.

I admit, I zoomed in for a close up of A Rod in action.

Tuesday before our flight I insisted we go to Serendipity 3 as per a million recommendations.
Needless to say we were immensely pleased. The frozen hot chocolate and pineapple upside down sundae were to die for.

I was REALLY happy.
And yes, I know I got whipped cream all over my shirt, which I then had to wear around the rest of the day.
No regrets...it was THAT good.

It was such a fun trip. We loved bumming around the city and exploring different areas. We must go back!

He's all grown up

My favorite little brother graduated from high school yesterday.
And to think...he used to look like this.



Now he's big and tall and handsome.

As you can see he's not really the touchy type....wouldn't put his arm around his own sister for a picture.
Kids these days.

Nonetheless I'm still happy for him and excited for his big bright future.
Go get 'em Wally!

Its a poodle

Hobbes recently got a fashionable summer hair cut.

Look at that dashing profile.

Oh yeah, I graduated

Two years ago.
But still, I thought it was worth a mention since I never blogged about it.


Brigham Young University
Bachelor of Arts in Communications with an emphasis in Public Relations
Business Management minor.

There you go. A major life event successfully recorded.

NYC

Yep, we're headed to the Big Apple.



I'm going for work the end of this month and though it will be a quick trip, I told Jeff he HAD to come too.

We're thinking Broadway show, Serendipity, Yankees game, Magnolia's bakery, Central Park, museums??

Boy there's a lot to do and not much time. But we can't wait.
