East Coast

So I've been over here for a day and a half now. I'm staying with David and Meridith in their home in New Jersey, which is gorgeous! (Both the home and NJ). Jen came over with me and we've been having a blast. Spent yesterday evening playing with Ainsley and Liam, and they are the sweetest kids ever. Then this morning we walked to the creperie for breakfast. After spending the morning wandering around, we hopped on the bus to NYC. So much fun! We bought our city passes and went to the MOMA and the Museum of Natural History. Saw all sorts of cool things. We also wandered through Central Park for awhile. It was pouring rain all day, but we still had a great time. One guy was singing by the museum for money and he was so good! We gave him some money after sitting around for four songs.
After all of our exploring, we went to a fabulous little Italian restaurant for dinner, and then off to Broadway for our first show. We saw Wicked, and it was fantastic! Thanks Janaya, for getting the whole soundtrack stuck in my head a couple years ago. It totally built up the anticipation, and I was not let down. Just wish I could have bought the Defying Gravity T-shirt, but I wasn't about to fork over $40 for that. I'll just have to make my own instead at some point.
Tomorrow were going to explore Upper Montclaire some more, check out their little shopping district. Then in the afternoon its Liam's 6th birthday. It should be a lot of fun and we definitely are looking forward to it. This is going to be one awesome week!
