Long time, no blog......So sorry it's been so long since we've sent out an update.
Thomas and I have now been here for a little over 2 months and it's been interesting to say the least. We've been so busy here, or maybe it's just the new york city mindset that we just always "feel' busy." I put a ton of pics so enjoy!!!

O.K...so Thomas and I went biking through Central Park one day and stumbled upon a "roller-skating disco block party" I seriously was the biggest tourist, I just stood there for 30 minutes and took pictures. The video above is absolutely histerical. This guy is like Mr.trying-to-be-cool-and-show-off-my-dance-moves-guy, and the next thing you know he almost falls and tries to play it off.


The view from biking through Central Park.


This was one of my favorite places to go to walk or read. It's the Hudson River,right across is New Jersey.


For Thomas' b-day in September we went to this restaurant that's on the top floor of a building and revolves. The view of the city is wonderful. We ended up getting the dessert bar...we both had a sugar crash on the way home.





I love this building. Everytime we pass it I take a picture. It has all this beautiful sculpting. It reminds of of buildings in Europe.
FAO Schwartz Toy Store.Ummm...I feel like a kid everytime I walk in this store. I seriously want to by the entire line of barbies!!!

You're probably wondering why in the world we're holding up the number 2. Well, we're standing out in front of the theater where "Wicked" the musical is performed. It's the number 1 broadway show right now so the cheapest tickets are $120. Obviously we can't afford that so every night before a show they have what's called a lottery. What you do is line up and sign your name on a card and they draw 13 names. Normally there are between 200-300 people there. So this picture was taken the time we won tickets a second time. WE have now won tickets 4 times in a row. This is seriously impossible!!! Every time one of our friends is in town we all go to try to win tickets. So far all of our friends have been able to see the shoe front row center for $26. Thank you Jesus!!! This show is amazing, if you're ever in NYC go to the lotto and try and win tickets.

This is the apple store here. You go inside this glass building and walk underground to see all the apple stuff. How cools is this building!!!
This is down in Battery Park. This sculpture is actually debris from the World Trade Center buildings.Thomas and I went to Hoboken which is a quick subway ride to New Jersey with a great view of Manhattan. We were walking around and almost passed out when we saw a Panera...why must you ask. Well, there are hardly any chains in the city, its really expensive to eat out, and there are no free refills on drinks. So Panera was familiar cheap and had free refills!!!!! Thomas had like 12 diet Pepsi's.

Thomas and I also went to ground zero on 9/11, went to "Top of the Rock (the top of the Rockefeller center,which has a better view than the Empire state building) and found some amazing places to eat.
One of my best friends Lindsay lives here and is staff with Campus Crusade for Christ. So it's been so much fun hanging out with her. It's such a blessing to have a friend on one of our travel assignments. Thomas and I are here until the middle of Dec then it's back home for 2 weeks and then we're back to Salt Lake City to snow board again for the winter!!!! We miss everyone and can't wait to see you. Love and Blessings Thomas and Crystal
