NYC!

Alec and I went to NJ/NY for a long weekend to visit our friends Bill and Mimi Tolsma. They are good friends of ours from college, we were so happy to see them again! They live about an hour outside of the city in Ringwood, NJ. They showed us such a good time, we were able to see so many sites in New York City. We did a LOT of walking, which was good since it probably helped keep us warm since it was SO cold. At one point I realized I could hardly feel my legs I was so freezing cold.

Some of the sites/things we saw:

• Statue of liberty
• The show Mama Mia
• Central Park
• FAO Schwarz - the famous toy store
• Dylan's Candy store
• Rockefeller center
• the Today Show set
• Wall street
• China Town
• Little Italy
• SOHO
• And soooo many more!

It was a really fun time, and it was good to get away for a long weekend before I started school again. I started up again yesterday (monday), it has been a little overwhelming but it always is at the beginning of the semester. Hopefully it continues to go well!
