HOORAY FOR NEW YORK!!!!!

Well, I’ve given up my day-to-day posts of our trip. I have a life, and I need to blog about that too! So, here are some of my favorite pictures of NY. There are just too many to post all of them. Sorry, this post has to be long, but please don’t let that keep you from commenting! Enjoy!
We got a little wet on the ferry. And almost everywhere else! The days we were in New York it rained almost constantly, but our Washington D.C. days were HOT as all get out.

This is our family. We adopted Ashli, you know.

The view from the ferry to the Statue of Liberty and Eilis Island. We didn't get off at the Statue of Liberty, but we took pictures from the ferry. Eilis Island was amazing. I didn't think it was going to be that big of a deal, but it was WAY worth seeing.

You know you're in China Town when the Verizon Wireless ads are in Chinese!

Gotta have a picture of the hot dog stand, right?

Mary Poppins was one of the two Broadway plays we saw. Even though we saw it from the second row and it was a little neck tiring, it was awesome. If you ever get a chance to see a play like this, take it.
The group that went on the 3rd day in New York:Me, Ashli, Tanner, my mom, Marilyn's friend Eileen, and Official Tour Guide Marilyn.
One of my have-to's in New York. Who can leave that place feeling complete without sitting on a bench in Central Park? I mean really? :)
Another one of my have-to's was to ride on a subway. Whew, did I get that one! We rode a ton of subways, and I was happy. On our last day there, Tanner decided that one of his dreams was to get a picture like this, with the subway blurry behind him and him in focus. Weird kid.
When I heard everyone talking about "The Top of The Rock" I was VERY confused. That it how sheltered I am. I thought maybe we were going to a shore to stand on the top of a rock? I felt dumb when I found out it was the top of the Rockefeller Center. It was awesome, after I found out what it was!

Wii internet!!!!

Guess what? I'm making this post from the tv! Tanner set it up so we can use the internet from the Wii. Pretty cool, huh? I'm getting pretty good at typing with the remote. Hey, does anyone want to comment? Just kidding, you know I love you all...but really, feel free to comment. :)

Sniffle...sniffle...:)

Day 2 - New Jersy Adventures

On Sunday (the day after our flight) we went to the ward that Marilyn used to live in. After that, we went on a tour of some of the highlights of New Jersy i.e. Delaware river, Washington crossing, and Princeton. I don't have all of the pics of the places, but it's a good taste of them. Enjoy, and sorry this post is so long. That's just something I can't controll! :)
I may need to live in New Jersy at some point in my life. It is SOOOOO green there, and I L-O-V-E-D it!


I love pretty close ups of flowers!

The Delaware river

This is pretty much the smallest bridge you will ever see in your life. You have to pull your mirrors in so they won't hit a car passing on the opposite direction.

This is were I will life in my next life. I am putting a preorder on it. It is up in the woods, beautiful, peaceful, and one of the most gorgeous houses I have ever seen.

Me and Ashli

Marilyn, with friend, host, and tour guide, Mary Jane.

Havin' A Great Time!!!

Well, we're still here on the East coast, and loving every minute of it. We have been packing a TON of stuff into a short time, and we're all EXHASTED. But it's that happy, good kind of exhasted, where it has come from having a good time. And we'll be coming home on Sunday to S-L-E-E-P. And then go to California in like 4 days. *Sigh* It all has been and will be WAY fun though. I will finally have time to post pictures soon!

Day 1-Ashli's 1st Airplane Trip!

Well, we flew into Philidalphia yesterday, for our East Coast sort of smooshed together trip!!! That day Ashli went on her 1st airplane ride, and we kind of explored Phillidalphia. Soooo fun!
The most awesome sandcastle you will ever see in you life. This was in Philadelphia and has a bunch of baseball stuff.

Philidalphia soon after we landed.

Hmmm...even the cookies have Delta on them!

Ashli and Me

The airplane. Ashli loved it. By the way, I used an airplane bathroom for the first time this trip. It was not an experience I plan to EVER repeat. It's a little freaky when the whole bathroom starts moving. NOT FUN!

These are from the oldest residential street in America. It's about 8 feet wide, and all the houses are just like they were in the 17 hundreds. People still live in these houses, and one of them is up for rent! It was pretty cool.

Okay, this is sideways, but I can't figure out how to change that. Oh well!

The Liberty Bell

My life...

..Has be SOOO crazy!!! I haven't had time to post on my blog!!!! I'll have lot's to post about when it's all over, though!!!!=)
