New York City


My dear friend and college roommate Heidi Bioski informed us three weeks ago that she was getting married. We were so excited for her and didn't want to miss the grand occasion. She was ceiled to Nathan Allen in the Manhattan Temple. Amazing! Afterwards they had a luncheon at the Bouley Restaurant in Manhattan. Incredible. 8 courses, incredible food, wonderful people, 4 hours and great time. Thanks for inviting us Heidi and Nathan. You two were meant for each other. A time we will never forget! (And of course I didn't get picture of Dustin and I at the wedding).


Over the weekend we tried to do some fun things and eat at some fun places. These pictures are in the Financial District. Our first time back since 9/11. Sad but hopeful. We know we will have a second round of economic recovery since 9/11, but while we wait we enjoyed some great pastries at Financier. Yummy!

We found a MUST DO if you are ever in NY. Cross the BROOKLYN BRIDGE and eat at GRIMALDI'S PIZZERIA. Seriously the best pizza ever! Fresh mozzarella, fresh basil, fresh tomato's, FRESH, FRESH, FRESH! It is one of the best in the world and one that Frank Sinatra often visited. A small little place, nothing special and nothing on the menu but pizza and calazones, so don't ask for salad. :) Pizza will never be the same!

TIMES SQUARE. You have to love the picture of Dustin below the "No standing anytime" sign. We loved the cheese cake at Juniors, but ate too much.


A Sunday walk at Central park before having to head home.
We also went to Wicked this weekend but forgot the camera. At least we had great seats!
And Yes. We are greasy in all our pictures because it was hot and humid.
Thanks to everyone for watching the kids. Maybe next time you can come. :)
