The City of Brotherly Love


While Sonja was here, we visited her old stomping grounds in Philadelphia (I always spell that wrong!). We ate good Amish food, saw the Bell, and a lot of people dressed up. We also saw a lot of Murals and payed homage to Rocky.










Emmi throwing money in the fountain. This reminds me that we saw a beggar guy use a cane to steal coins from Benjamin Franklin's Gravethrough a fence. It was quite funny, sorry no picture.

SONJA!

We had a great visit from my dear sister who was working on a movie in Boston. We did lots of stuff... Liberty Island, Brooklyn Bridge (and pizza, and ice cream, and 8 Japanese brides), and the Intrepid Museum, to name a few.













We won tickets to, "The 39 Steps" which was great!


We ran into the "Naked Cowboy" swooning women in Times Square. The picture is blurred to protect the young. He was running for mayor...

Thanks for coming, Sonja! Hopefully next time you babysit for us it will go a little better!

Rachie Rach and the C man.

I know it was awhile ago, but thanks for visiting us!  We forgot our camera most the time, you may recall, which is why there is a picture of the NYSE.

Please come again!

A Tale of Cake and Oreos


We had an adventurous Saturday recently.

There is a little lady named Miss Mary who makes delicious cakes and and sets up shop in Harlem.  Seriously, $2 for a giant three layered cake?


We stopped and got some red velvet on our way to buy 1500 oreos and 20 gallons of milk.  We needed to stock up.  Just kidding...  Jay was in charge of refreshments last minute at a Church meeting and this is the best we could think of.



And Emmi asked for her first pet...

Random summer

Now that we are in the 50s this morning in NYC, I guess the summer is really gone. Here are a few pictures left over of various activities.


Emmi comes by her pick-pocketing skills naturally.


I love it when she folds her arms for prayers!

Central Park skater

This is how we find our little girl some mornings. See how she is trying to change the subject.

We went to Harlem Days, which had great jazz.


Speaking of Harlem, where else would you have this....



Learning to eat with a spoon.

Jay played on a softball team and we had fun watching. Go Stormin's!



Our good friend from India brought Emmi a little present.



"Pull out all the tupperware and get in cupboard". This is on Emmilene's top 5 list of what to do while mom is making dinner. And no, we do not normally store hairbrushes in our kitchen.


Mets Game with Em's friend Kate. People thought they were both our blue-eyed beauties.




Labor day at the beach with dear little Charlie.
I am still vacuuming up sand.




And maybe living in Harlem our child has a hope of getting some cool dance moves, since her genetics are no help...

(ignore the MC Hammer pants)
