New York City

Jon and I just returned from an awesome long weekend in NYC visiting Erin and Wilson. The kids stayed behind, though I doubt they even realized we were gone since they got to spend 2 days with Will, Tina, and kids and then 2 days with Sandy and Dave. Lucky kiddos!

Our trip was prompted by the purchase of tickets to see U2 in concert at Giants Stadium - an unbelievable show! All the concert pictures are on my facebook page but I threw one in here, too. We spent the rest of the weekend exploring the city (as best we could with Jon's sprained ankle) and visiting with friends. I teamed up with Erin's good friend Kate to throw Erin a surprise bridal brunch - it was a blast! We relaxed at Erin and Wilson's apartment where we played a fair share of Wii games and bonded with our nephew, Bruce the cat.

We did the Circle Line tour around Manhattan - a perfect day for it, obviously!

We had a most delicious lunch here at Shake Shack in Madison Square Park
