22 things I did in Utah

Family is the BEST! There is No denying it. As much as I love our adventures in New York, it is a breathe of fresh air to be around loved ones. While Robert slaved away in the hospital, I enjoyed 2 wonderful weeks with my family.

My parents did exactly what I told them not to do .....ENTERTAIN ME! Every day was full of fun. If I didn't know any better, I would think they were trying to entice me to move back West! ;) Well, it is working! xoxoxo

Bikes ..

Bikes in the city are the best! I had several people tell me this but now I know they are right! We bought some ghetto-fabulous bikes from Walmart and have been on bike rides almost every night since!

(Robert turns into a 8 year old when he gets on his bike. He loves to jump curbs, ride with no hands, and race! I think I need to get him a helmet!)



We rode our bikes to this great Brazilian Concert.

1st Annual...

When boys get together, they come up with some brilliant ideas like.......

It was disgusting but at least we had a good laugh!

Take me out to the ball game...

What better way to spend a summer night than a baseball game? The Staten Island Yankee stadium has an incredible view of Manhattan. It was a fun summer night.You can get there by taking the free Staten Island Ferry. I thought the best part of the night was the ferry ride back. The skyline, bridges, and Statue of Liberty was beautiful.


The night ended with several firework shows!

Shakespeare in the Park

Shakespeare in the Park (Central Park) is a popular summer activity in the city. The only problem is that it is really hard to get tickets. I have been trying to win tickets online for the last 2 years. I was about to dedicate a 6 hour wait in line to get tickets when finally we won tickets online!! I was so excited. We saw A Winter's Tale. It is one of Shakespeare more unique scripts but we loved it. The outdoor stage is incredible. Birds fly over the stage and at night the fireflies come out. Perfect summer night!
