We have been running since we had our kids - in every way! Life is like a marathon - full of uphills and downhills, water stops, taking the time to stretch, beautiful views, fast sprints, slow walks, and yes, sore muscles. But we are thankful for all of it because when we reach the finish line at the end of each day we know that it was all worth it!

New York City!

I got to go to New York City for my birthday and graduation trip.  My friend Suzanne (best friends since 4th grade) lives in New Jersey, right by the train station into New York.  It was three much needed fun-filled days.  We went to "9 to 5" the new broadway play, to American Girl store, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Canal Street (Shopping!), the outlets in Jersey, and to Alan's work at the American Express building (right next door to the Twin Towers construction).  I went running every morning, ate birthday cake, and went out for a fun Cinco de Mayo lunch at the American Express "mall" where Alan works.  We had tons of rain but we didn't let that get us down.  We laughed a lot and we even found the time to watch our favorite teen movie, "Sooner or Later!"
