This post is probably going to jinx me from ever winning anything again but.... it's all for the blog! :) Some Broadway shows have what are called lotteries. A couple hours before the show you can put your name into a lottery to win front row tickets to their show. You can never count on this because hundreds of people usually show up for these and only 10 names get pulled. Well Robert has now officially won the lottery 3 times in a row (I did once). We have now won front row tickets to Wicked for Taren, Josh, Steph, Ryan, and ourselves. And this weekend we saw In the Heights. We can't figure out what is going on... is it some kind of joke?

Portwoods ROCK out in NYC!
I never imagined having so many visitors when we moved to NYC. I absolutely love it. I would like to think everyone is coming just to visit us but lets be honest... it's because we live in the coolest city ever!
We loved, loved, loved, having Robert's sister and brother in-law out for a the weekend. They are such a fun and beautiful couple. Here are some pictures from the eventful weekend including a Yankees game, and Macy's fireworks over the Hudson River. Here are just a few pictures from Stephanie's blog so click here to see the rest.
Ryan and Steph, We love you!

Josh and Taren come to NYC!
One of the best things about living in NYC is how many visitors we get. This weekend we were lucky enough to have Taren and Josh came out. We had a great time. Josh had never been here before so we took him to all the big "must sees". I still can't believe how much we did in such a short amount of time. We won four front row lottery tickets to see Wicked which was unbelievable. I miss them already. We love you guys. Thanks so much for making the effort to come see us, it means a lot! xoxoxo

Hooray! Cheers!
I did it!!!!!!! I made it through another crazy year of teaching. This year tops the charts of crazy years. Anyone that knows me has probably heard me say at some point that my dream is to work in the inner city schools of NYC. I wanted to be that "Dangerous Minds" teacher changing kids lives. Well, I guess I have to be careful what I wish for because this year my dream actually came true. Although most days are definitely not that glamorous, I have learned a TON this year. I have learned a lot about myself and I have pushed myself to new limits. Hooray for a successful year completed! Cheers to another crazy year to come.
Babe, I couldn't have done it without you. Thanks for waking up with me EVERY morning at five o'clock. Thanks for walking me to the Subway EVERY morning. Thanks for being patient with how tired I have been. Thanks for drying my eyes on those HARD days. Thanks for NEVER letting me give up on my dreams. Again, I really couldn't have done it without you.

Herb Garden's 101
A couple of weeks ago we babysat our friend's herb garden and got a little attached so we trecked across New York to a Home Depot and bought the supplies for our own little garden. This should be good practice for future parenting. Hopefully our plants don't die.
Basil, Oregano, Cilantro, Chives
Dads Rock!
Aren't dads the best? Robert and I have been blessed with exceptional dads. My dad is so funny and we just love being around him. John is so knowledgeable and gives us great advice. We love you guys and hope you have a fantastic Father's Day!
