Favorite Buildings









Here are a few of my favorite buildings I've discovered so far...

Central Park...





It was a BEAUTIFUL day today, the weather was perfect, just a light jacket was all you needed, so we decided to take Roxy to Central Park. She LOVES it there, all the kids, people, other dogs, squirrels, pigeons, and food on the ground! What's not to love?! She thoroughly enjoys eating her fair share of coffee cake, bagels, and bits of pizza off the sidewalks whenever possible. Kyle was hungry once we got to the park, seeing as it was 2:30 and we still hadn't eaten yet today, so we stopped off at a little street vender's cart and got him a hot dog and a knish. We walked into the park and sat and listened to some live Christmas music from a sax player as we enjoyed our afternoon snack. Roxy realized that the knish, a fried Jewish potato cake, is so far her favorite New York food! She went nuts over it! It was adorable!
We continued into the park and came across the Belvedere castle at Turtle pond. This is my favorite spot in the park so far. I love that we live close enough to walk to Central Park several times a week!

Hugs and Kisses :)

Pleasant Surprise

Much to my surprise, Kyle mentioned to me tonight that he thought it would be cool if we started a blog. (If any of you know my husband, you know that he usually thinks blogging is a ridiculous waste of time.) ( Sorry all you bloggers out there!) This will be an easy way for us to keep up with all our friends and family back home, and around the country, to be able to share our new life here in the big NYC with all the people we love.
I've only been here for a month, but we've already done and seen so many cool things, I will do my best to update everyone over what has been going on lately!
I also want to say really quickly how much we really appreciate all the help, support, and prayers from all our family and friends. This move wouldn't have been able to happen so quickly without all your help. We love you all so much and miss you. Can't wait to have all our friends and family out to visit!!!! hint, hint :)
Hope you all enjoy having a little peek into our life in the big city!

Hugs and kisses to you all :)
