New York New York!!!!

I love New York City! We had the greatest weekend in the Big Apple! The best part about this trip was the opportunity to stay with Stacey and Mark and their little kiddies. Stace and I have been friends now for about 15 years (holy cow!) and even though we live far away from each Swirl and talking with Steph, Kel, and Josette for hours into the night! I am so blessed to have such amazing friends. I love you all!

So, back to the weekend...what a blast! New York is probably one of my favorite cities. I love the sights, and yes the smells, and just all the crazy things that you would only see in New York. Like the drummer in Central Park singing about hula hoops! We had adventure after adventure and captured it all on film. Thank you for making this possible Stace and Mark! So enjoy! Until next week.....

I'm tired of doing stuff....

So before I go into our weekend, I had to include this great quote from my sweet husband. Over the last few weeks he has been home, getting our basement completely organized, helping out so much with Lily, doing yardwork, etc. etc. So, last night after a long Sunday managing our sweet Lily at church, getting home, getting bath time and bed time taken care of, and making dinner Ryan was done. He was rushing to get dinner on his plate, and I looked at him and said, "What's the deal? Why are you hurrying?" He quickly said, "I'm tired of doing stuff!" I couldn't help myself and burst out laughing. I think Ryan has realized what it is like to be a wife and mommy! We are always doing "stuff." Isn't it great?

On a different note....this is what I did this weekend. If you can't tell what is happening, I experienced what is called a "Fish Pedicure" with a group of friends. Yes, you heard me right! You put your feet in this little pool, and these special fish come and nibble at your feet to make them silky smooth! I think you can tell by my expression, and by my death grip on my cute friend Jennifer's hand how I felt about it! Also notice that at this point there are no fish on my feet, I was just freaked out! I finally was able to relax a bit, and I will say that my feet were so smooth after these 15 minutes of craziness! I would recommend it, although you would have to come visit me to get one. This is the only place in the US that it is being done. Nibble, nibble, nibble.....
