Springtime in New York City

Aaron and I recently returned from a whirlwind weekend visiting friends and family in New York City. We arrived Thursday evening in time for an amazing home cooked dinner with cousin Dani and fiance Dan in Brooklyn (though we unfortunately forgot to take the camera out!). We caught one of the last trains to Yonkers where my dad, Julie, and Jen now live. Friday we all drove out to tour Jen's college, Manhattanville in Purchase, NY. We spent some quality time with my dad and Julie, then headed into the city to meet up with some friends and to cheer on the Lakers at a bar in the Village. Saturday included bocce ball and a take out pizza picnic in Central Park with Lisa and Timmy. We were back in the park on Sunday morning to participate in the 4 mile Japan Day run with my dad - Aaron's first race ever. After a super tasty lunch at my dad and Julie's new favorite mexican food restaurant we took a much needed nap. Our friend Miro picked us up later that afternoon and we headed out to Jersey to see the new baby and new home. He and Nida treated us to a yummy backyard BBQ. Monday we went on a mini road trip to check out the Jersey Shore. The sun and sea air must have magnified our lack of sleep because Aaron and I both slept as Miro graciously brought us to the airport in time for our early evening flight back to LAX.

Wow you two packed a lot in! Looks like a great trip.
BTW Aaron - Carson taught Miss Hadley "three pointer." She now uses it to communicate everything. It's hilarious.
