The Frog and the Fly



Last night was our trunk or treat party at church and we dressed up for once. Dad made his own costume and won the prize for the best adult costume! Yes, I am wearing parts of Tyler's costume from 4th grade. I think I could eat that big fly, what about you?

New York is the place to be!



New York is the place to be! At least for a weekend. Dad had a law firm administrator's conference at the Hyatt and I tagged along for fun. Dad learned a lot of good stuff and I had a fun time shopping!!! Macy's is amazing! I did educational things too. I went on a tour of the UN and found that pretty amazing too. I also went to St Patricks Cathedral which was also amazing. When dad could join me, we went on a city tour on a double decker bus and got a good overall perspective of the city. We rode the subway a lot and even tried the bus to the Manhattan temple. The temple is beautiful inside, but on the outside it looks like just a normal NY building. We caught Mary Poppins on Broadway at the last minute one night and saw Stomp off broadway on Friday night. We loved them both! We were mostly entertained by watching people everywhere we went. The last thing we did before we headed to the airport was ride in a cart powered by bicycle which was pedalled by a young man from Turkey. It was a beautiful fall day and that memory will be with us for some time.

Ribbit Ribbit


We really enjoyed conference this weekend. The talks were all so good and many spoke to me individually as they always do. We really enjoyed having Adam and Lisa come to visit. We enjoyed Jared who can giggle and talk and makes us laugh. He is getting bigger and is very cuddly. He really loves his bath and stroller rides outside. They can turn around his grumpiness in a hurry. Lisa and I made Jared a frog costume since he likes to kick and loves the water. Dad and I leave for New York on Wednesday and will update the blog with new pictures from New York.
