New York, New York!

This year was a big anniversary for Jeff and I ... 10 YEARS! We decided we needed to celebrate in style and booked a 6 day trip to New York City. Six days. Away from our sweet boys, work ... and reality. Other than missing our boys, it was bliss! We did a little of everything - two Broadway shows (Wicked and Les Mes), a Yankee's game, biking and rowing in Central Park, the Highline park, walked along the Hudson, and took the Staten Island Ferry. We saw so much of the city - one day alone we clocked 15 miles! Pictures below (warning ... there are a LOT ... and mainly of us, it was an anniversary trip you know!)!
And we're off!
The Manhattan LDS Temple - so beautiful!
After going to the temple we started meandering and
stumbled upon this pretty little park among the buildings.
Anniversary night! Dinner & Wicked!

Empire State
Times Square (where we stayed!)
Central Park ... it's AMAZING!
We biked and then rowed in this pond - so cute!
Our rowing was rewarded with very cool views.
The city skyline from the Staten Island Ferry
And just because we liked it so much we also
rode it a second time at sunset!
Lady Liberty herself
Breathtaking ...

Highline Park
For being such a busy city it is full of parks!
Yankee Stadium
Go Yankees!
If you walk long enough you stumble upon
amazing historical churches
... with cool 
graveyards
Or awesome food booths ... coolest city!
Manhattan
Wall Street
The Hudson River!
One World Trade Center
The 9/11 Memorial ... beautiful and so powerful

It was amazing - a time to have fun, reconnect, and remember why we started this crazy journey to begin with. I love this guy. I knew after 3 weeks I'd marry him, and I haven't ever looked back! Here's to 10 more great ones, babe! 

One last show on our last night ... Les Mes
