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.

You have really captured the feel of the city and we can see how excited you are to be in such an interesting place! We are glad you can live your dream! Thanks for the great hospitality when we visited last July and we hope to visit you again soon. We love you guys!
I love New York! I can finally look at images of the city without feeling queasy. Seeing your pictures makes me want to visit again. I would send you my pictures of our visit, but I look like I am about to throw-up in all of them. Thanks for (finally) updating you blog. I guess I should take a cue from you. We love you guys and can't wait for your visit in a few weeks! Love, Erin
Wow! Kari and I were perusing the family blogs and were stunned to see an update here. It is a great one, keep it up. We want to see more pictures of your apartment. We wish we could come visit you guys. Maybe someday if the military gives me a big christmas bonus (you should be laughing hysterically at that subtle joke). But seriousely we hope to be able to come some time. Kari would especially love to see New York.
Wow, I'm obviously a little late to the party here, but what a great update! I love all the pictures. I guess we're one of the few who haven't visited you yet. Hopefully we'll make it out there before you're off somewhere else :) Thanks for sharing!
you guys really live in downtown New York! Central park looks beautiful! we went to see wicked on tour back in october and we loved it! It was awesome.
