I’ve also heard about grimaldi’s and never been and still haven’t walked the brooklyn bridge. We just got a shake shack here and i haven’t been but have heard about how good it is, too! I can’t believe we were both in times sq friday night and both at the park monday and i never saw you. i will continue to be sad about this :( you did a TON on your trip and i’m impressed! i don’t think i could’ve run the marathon after yalls agenda. glad yall had a good trip.

That was several years ago, but we all thought it was long-winded and kind of boring. I appreciated what I saw - and the talent it took to put it on - but it wasn't for me.<br /><br />I liked your pictures though and it sounds like you really took advantage of all that New York had to offer. Glad you had a good trip. Hopefully all your adventures before the race didn't wear you down too much. Also what a treat for Ariel as well.Eddie Gaulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18151446665700309292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707007344589561021.post-30778718107466437522014-11-06T14:34:00.369-07:002014-11-06T14:34:00.369-07:00I was relieved to miss the Halloween parade!

We had a few adult things we wanted to do (marathon included), but also wanted to give the kids an opinion on what to do. We haven't had a big family trip in a long time, so this was a lot of fun for all of us :)Beckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10260238987157763316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707007344589561021.post-14307332192999612752014-11-06T11:59:59.538-07:002014-11-06T11:59:59.538-07:00Finally!

That's great that you stuck to the NY basics and didn't overload the kids. I can't wait to be able to say, "I'm spending the weekend in New York with my daughter"... next year, hopefully! I'm an over-planner and know I'm going to plan to do way too much and then I'll be upset when we don't hit it all. Good for you for being so easy going, skipping the parade and doing something else the kids wanted to do instead (I'd have been so grumpy about having to do the M&M museum, I think. lol) We rode bikes in Central Park once (pre-Kid), and somehow ended up on the Harlem side when we meant to go the other way. That was the BEST way to see the park, IMO. <br /><br />As I was reading about everything you did in NY here I was thinking the whole time, She hasn't even run the marathon yet...YIKES!!! that made me super exhausted. Girlie, you really know how to burn the candle at both ends! Hope you have a restful week coming up!

I've decided my scale (despite only have it for 1 month) is clearly broken because every time i step on it, the number fluctuates drastically (up or down... mostly up) Lisa Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922353571818312472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707007344589561021.post-69082858697355500862014-11-06T09:31:04.024-07:002014-11-06T09:31:04.024-07:00Gr8 Photos!!!
