Chloe’s a freshman in High school and Shane’s a 7th grader! What?! When did this happen??
Two kids, going to two different schools, in two different towns!! 

My cousin and his son drove cross country from San Francisco and stayed with us for a few nights before going to Cornell. It was SO good to see them and we absolutely loved having them!

We came to see John, our drummer at GRC playing at Half Moon restaurant in Dobbs Ferry, NY but the wait was two hours long! So we said hello to him and went to The Cookery instead for Sunday family dinner.

We drove 3 hours to PA to see the show Esther at Sight and Sound theatre. It was the best!!!

Our last stop was Arcadia Earth museum. This was kinda cool, but underwhelming. It was educational… the focus on the environment is what needs to be taken away from this experience… 
If a friend asked me if it’s worth the visit, I would say, no. 
Overall, we had a great time in the city, and the weather today couldn’t have been better so I’m thankful. 
I’m glad Shane still likes to hold hands when we walk. 🙂

We had some time left to walk around NYU area so we stopped at Washington SQ Park.

We had about an hour or so before our next stop, and Shane was getting restless, so we stopped for a coffee break at a cafe on McDougal st where my small latte was 6 bucks… Then when turned a corner on Broadway, we spotted Sour Patch Kids store…
I let him get whatever he wanted not realizing he would scoop out 50lbs worth of candies… This made him happy more than anything today.

Shane: Woah, this is the best pork buns I’ve ever had in my entire life!
Me: It’s so good! Wait… I made you pork buns before.
Shane: Exactly.
Me: …
Ramen was good too but Shane was way more impressed with the pork buns. 

What a cool experience!!! Amazing views of New York skyline 360?
And we picked the most gorgeous day to be in NYC!
