New York City

We all went to New York City in April and had the greatest time. We stayed with the super fun Layden family and the kids LOVED all the girls.

Hannah had an art show for her MFA, and it was really amazing.

Todd rowed us around the lake in Central Park. TB and I went to the David Letterman Show.

We saw a polar bear at Central Park Zoo.

We went to the Empire State Building and Grand Central Station and we saw the Statue of Liberty.

We saw the Space Shuttle Enterprise fly over while piggy-backed on a 747 and Ikey and TB were interviewed on the radio.

We rode the subway and taxis and we ate pizza.

We walked everywhere and ate at great restaurants.

The kids bonded with "Uncle" Mitch.

 We terrorized the Layden's home for FIVE DAYS, and Jovie even got into Grandma Jackie's makeup.



















We visited the 9/11 Memorial on the week that the Freedom Tower passed the Empire State Building as the tallest in New York City. When it's finished, it will be the tallest building in the country.

We visited the Air and Space Museum on the USS Intrepid air craft carrier.

Jovie was quite an attraction in New York: families asked to take pictures with her two times, someone asked us what nationality she is, and a group of school kids surrounded her at the zoo and asked me why her hair is so light.
