Delightful Weekend

My BFF (Lindsay Bagley) has been in New York for the past month. We had fun taking her 2 munchkins around the city and reminiscing on old times. Our husbands think we are officially crazy but what can you say "Lindsay+Lindsay=Double Trouble"!

We went to a romantic Italian restaurant in the West Village to carb-load before the race.

Saturday morning a group of friends and I woke up at 5 AM and journeyed to Brooklyn. The Brooklyn half was two laps around the angelic Prospect Park to the Costal highway and on to ocean breeze and Coney Island Boardwalk. It was a great run and day!



We couldn't pass up a free night at the Guggenheim and a night out with good friends. All these modern museums and creepy artwork is giving me some funky dreams. We finished the night off with SHAKE SHACK!

Sunday was filled with church, Skyping, and the finale of LOST! Hayley melted our hearts with her version of "Twinkle Little Star". I am not sure how I feel about the LOST finale.

Great weekend but we have a busy week ahead. I am looking forward Boston and a long weekend!

Juilliard

Like I have said.... we love free things in the city! We have been spending lots of time at Lincoln Center attending Julliard's year-end performances. They are FREE and they were obviously extremely talented! WE loved their production of Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice and I loved the Senior dance performance (it wasn't Roberts cup of tea).

Moma

Robert has been studying crazy, long hours for his next big test.. the BOARDS! Dun Dun Dun....My job has been to plan fun evening dates to get Robert's mind of the Boards!


The city can be VeRy expensive place to live... if you let it! If there is a free or discounted event out there... we know about it... or want to know about it!


This was a freaky-live-modern art.... The artist sat in a chair and volunteers would sit in the adjacent chair and they would stare at each other for hours! I don't get what is artistic about this but... whatever.

Book Review

In my opinion, two thumbs up!

Past its prime....

To CeLeBraTe Robert finishing his 2nd year of medical school we took a trip to Coney Island. Coney Island has a "creepy abandoned carnival" feel but we managed to have a great time.

Boardwalk and Beach

Coney is the home of the Famous Nathan's Hot dog and H.D. eating contest. The record to date is 68 hot dogs... gross! We stuffed our faces with some of the goodness and then called it quits.


It wouldn't be a complete day without some jumping pics. I am very impressed with Robert's technical jumping skills.

It was free day at the aquarium so we took a stroll and checked out the fascinating fish.

Coney.. you are past your prime but you still gave us a good time!

Everlasting

This year for Mother’s day Robert wanted to do something different to show his mom and mother in-law how much he really loved them. He wanted to do something everlasting, something permanent………

Book Review

I have 26 books to read before my next birthday so I need to get going.
#1 The Guernesey Literary and Potato Peel Society

A tale of the island of Guernesey during the German Occupation, and a society that strengthened a imprisoned community. The story is told purely through letters. Great book, recommend it for a light but sweet read. It inspired me to find a pen pal!

Romance in CP

It was Robert's turn to plan our date, so we spent a romantic day boating in Central Park! We can't wait to do it again (if they will let us in after Robert's painful opera singing and bumper boat episode).
"Don't worry Linds. I have my canoeing merit badge!!"
CRASH

I love to see...

I love to see the (Manhattan) temple!
