The Big Apple

This past weekend we trekked up to New Jersey to visit some of Nick's family. We stayed at his brother, Vince's, house and on Saturday drove (BIG mistake) into the city to go to Central Park. Once we got there we had a great time. We enjoyed looking at the turtles in the lake.

Carter played on one of the 28 playgrounds at the park and had a yummy ice cream! The sign to the playground reminded me of an institution, like in the movie Annie (Hudson Street Orphanage).

The playground was right next to Tavern on the Green.

After we left the park we headed to dinner for Nick's cousin, Will's, graduation party. Will graduated from Fordham University this past weekend so we went up to celebrate!

The happy graduate!

Unfortunately Carter got sick during the dinner and we had to leave early (that's why we aren't in the family picture)

Overall we had a great trip! It was great to see our family that we don't get to see very often, thanks for having us!
