Ok, more catch up on our summer fun while I sit on the beach and fry to a crisp! 

On our second day into the city we saw a ton!

First stop was the World Trade Center

What you see in the background is the spot where the twin towers used to stand and where the new Freedom Tower and 9/11 Memorial are being built.

Next was Phantom of the Opera.  FIRST row seats!  We were so close we could touch the stage and see the spit coming out of their mouths!!!!  It was Awesome!  I’ve seen it 3 times now and that was the best ever!

Some fun shots from Times Square


Huge billboard the church has put up in Times Square to balance the Book of Mormon musical publicity.

We love nerds!!! 

Our room! 

I plan on sitting on that beach and doing nothing but reading and sleeping for 5 days!!!!  Thank you Alli and Sarin!!!!!!!

We have had a whirlwind trip so far with Alli and Sarin.  It’s been two weeks and I can’t believe how much we’ve done!  I’m so behind I’ll never catch up, but here’s my attempt in the posts that follow.

Little Sisters Rock!
Sarin and Libby bonded right away.

The day after the Aunts got here we all went to New York City.

First Subway ride for Alli and Sarin

Libby liked the subway too…

Hold on tight!

First stop, the Empire State Building!  (Unfortunately, the line was 2 hours long and so we didn’t get to go up! )

Next stop, Central Park!

Taken on this bridge


Taken under another beautiful bridge.

Belvedere Castle

Next stop, Museum of Natural History

Last Stop, Times Square!

And that was only Day One in the city!

I know these are late, but the shirt says it all…
