Rainforest Cafe....

Ahhhhh... cute little family picture at the Rainforest Cafe... even though Brielle's not really looking!!! Good times!

RAINFOREST CAFE!!!

Ohhh, the Rainforest Cafe!! Sooo cool! :) Brielle absolutely loved it! This is where her love for alligators all began. There is an alligator that greets you as you walk in to the restaurant and it electronically roars and kinda jumps out at you Brielle just loved it and kept roaring all night after that. It's a really cute and fun place!! We had a blast. You eat in a forest like place and are surrounded by animals that make crazy noises and are really loud. Steven and Emily really enjoyed it too!! :) lol

FINALLY... some NY pictures!!!!

SOOOO I have finally posted some of my New York pictures!!! We've had quite a few adventures to New York since we have been here, and I just hadn't posted some until now (I am such a good blogger huh).... They are from the 1st month we were out here but are still current to me :) Soooo here is our little "tag team" of girls who get together and go play in the city!! Just some of the sweetest girls ever who really know what it's like to be husband-less for the summer :) So we get together and go play while the boys work work work!! It's been so fun and such a cool experience out here with them...

Taking the ferry to Ellis Island...

All of us girls and kids took the Jersey ferry to Ellis Island to tour the Immigration Center and Statue of Liberty. The ferry ride was really neat for the kids and Brielle kept eye-balling the water. I swear that baby is a fish!! (I'll explain later)

Immigration Center

Here are some pictures of Emily, Brielle and me at the Immigration Center. The Immigration Center is a museum all about immigrants and their journeys to America, specifically to New York. The center is the ACTUAL place they came through and where actual events took place. The museum was very interesting to see and a real eye opener of how blessed we are to be American citizens.

Here we are at the Statue of Liberty, us girls and all of our little babies. The Statue of Liberty was an amazing sight to see. The Island was so cute too. It had a fun little restaurant, an ice cream stand and gift shops. There was also a beautiful view of Manhattan from the island as well...
