September

Baptism for Ikey


Mason and I had such a great time flying out to Idaho to see family and see Isaac get baptized!  We are so proud of him.  I did horrible with taking pictures and only got this one of my dad setting up lunch afterwards making sure we could watch the BYU game afterwards.  The following pictures are what David did with the girls while we were gone--they had a good time, too!






New York trip

Red bus tours. We were so tired from traveling early in the morning we both fell asleep off-and-on through the tour.

Times Square



Temple 


St. Patricks Cathedral.  I thought it was fascinating to see the renovation of such a gorgeous building.  They were getting it ready in anticipation of the Pope's visit (which we missed by two days!).  We were able to step inside and quietly listen during a mass on Sunday and I really enjoyed listening to the organ music.  Beautiful acoustics.  

 
 Getting used to riding on all the public transportation
 


Central park



Mets VS Yankees game



MoMA and Metropolitan Museum

 

Rockefeller Center--we tried getting tickets to the Jimmy Fallon Tonight Show, but the closest we got was getting "The Tonight Dough" from the Ben and Jerry's there.

 
Little Italy (cronuts.... yum)


 Trinity Church near World Trade Centers



 

Freedom Tower and 9/11 Museum


Pier 1 Harbor

 
Central Station (ceiling)

 

We got some bikes and rode across the Brooklyn Bridge



Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island

 39 Steps, Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, and Finding Neverland


Dominique Bakery in Soho and eating lunch with cousin Jane.

We had such a great time (besides that one time I started to cry in Chelsea because we were riding bikes through the neighborhood and I got lost and our phones were dying and I am hormonal).  All the food was delicious, and we got to spend a few days with David's friends.  We would love to do another visit!


THANK YOU MOM for making this trip possible by watching our kids!  
Thanks Dad and Grandma for coming out for a few days, too! 


Mason started soccer--his team wins every game and he can't get enough of it.

What a fun time you all have had- sounds like lots of traveling! Your New York City pictures brought back many memories of our time living in the city. You packed in a lot! I hope you had more than a couple of days to do it all in! Especially with being pregnant! You're a champion to do so much walking & touring while pregnant!
