New York City!

So we're back from our little getaway together to New York City, and we had a GREAT time! I had to work on Friday, from about 9:00-4:00, but the rest of the long weekend was ours. Jason even met me for lunch when we took a lunch break during the deposition - that's something we don't get to do very often! :)

We did one of the bus tours that takes you all around and you can get on and off at any time you want. That enabled us to see everything, and anything we wanted to see a little closer, we could jump off the bus and check it out and then jump on the next bus that came around. It was really fun - and we felt like we really got to see everything! We also paid to go up to the Top of the Rock, which is the 70th floor of Rockefeller Center. That was well worth it! Other than those two "tourist" things, we walked around a whole lot and just took in the City - and walked and walked and walked and walked... :)

This week is another busy one. My little sister had her baby boy on Sunday morning, and we are planning a roadtrip to Grundy Center to see the little guy. My mom and Meggan took off this morning to Iowa, and Dawn and I and the boys (Jordan and Lucas) will be leaving tomorrow evening after work and then coming back home Sunday afternoon/evening to go back to work on Monday. It should be a fun - and exhausting - time!!! There's nothing like a little newborn baby; right?!?! :)

I'll post pictures of the "adventure" to Iowa next week sometime. For now enjoy a few of the views of the Big Apple!
