The city that never sleeps...

Matt and I just got back from our annual pilgrimmage to NJ. It seems we always go back for special occasions - this time is was my cousin Mike and Marie's wedding. We had the luxury of staying in Times Square for 2 nights, which we had never done before.

Here is Matt in the street after midnight - yet it looks like the middle of the day with the lights and the number of people around.

The next morning we walked past the Empire State Buiding (as well as a fabulous trimmings store were I bought a ton of ribbon for my cards and scrapbooks).


The wedding was at Tavern on the Green so we spent a little time in Central Park before the ceremony.



I got to spend a lot of time with my sister Lauren on and off the dance floor (since my husband will only get out there once maybe more if there are light sabers involved).


We did have a great time, all the better spending it with family we don't get to see too often.

And a tradition we try to do when all the cousins are together is to take a picture by height. We have been doing this since we were very little and it is interesting to watch the order change. Now we can start a new line up in front with the next generation. (Back L-R: Brian, David, Mike, Jackie, Leigh, Lauren and Front L-R:Alex and Brandon).
