We moved to New York City in August. Joseph is going to school at New York Law School. We love New York and are really excited to be here. We have already had several of our family and friends come to visit!


We Live only 3 blocks from Central Park. In some places you can't even tell you are in the middle of the city. It is so beautiful there.

This was our view from the Grand Hyatt. We stayed there for my work before we moved here. The architecture is amazing in the City.
The buildings are really incredible!

Ryan moved to Maryland this summer and Jaren came to help. They were able to come up for a short visit. This is the pier at Battery Park where the Statue of Liberty is.

When you come to visit you have to try Maxi's cheesecake! It is the best cheesecake in NYC! Joseph's favorite is blueberry and I like strawberry.

Melanie came to visit for a weekend. We had a lot of fun walking through Times Square. For all you others who came to visit, please send me the pictures you took so I can post them also!

This is Joseph's law school. It is in Tribeca near Wall Street and the World Trade Center.

This is the street we live on. This image was pulled from Google Maps. You can put in an address and "drive" through the streets, looking at images of everything. You can all check out our neighborhood this way. If you want our address, call or email me!

This was what our apartment looked like before we moved in. Now it looks a lot smaller with all of our stuff! This is the living room/kitchen and we have a bedroom barely big enough to fit our queen bed and a dresser. It really is small and we pay an arm and a leg for it, but its worth it! We found out some people pay a lot more than we do, so we feel like we got a deal.

We won the lottery for Wicked twice! You have to put your name in a drawing and 13 people win. The first time we won, Joseph's name was called. The second time, my name was called 1st, Joseph's was called 3rd, and Ryan's was called last. We are one lucky family! Wicked is awsome! We really liked it.
