Fun in the city with Billy!

Stephen's cousin Dylan ("Billy") came to see us this weekend so we took him around the city to see some of the sights. We ate some NY pizza for lunch, walked thrugh Time Square and Central Park and then ate some authentic Thai Food for dinner. The next day we had fun at the strawberry festival at IHOP and walked around Liberty State Park just prove that NJ has things to offer the tourists too!


Times Square has been made into a "pedestrian" zone. The streets have been closed off to traffic indefinitely and there are lawn chairs EVERYWHERE for the tourists to sit in and soak it all in. It kind of looks white trash so we hope if this becomes permanent that they posh up the seating situation just a tad.



We cruised around the NBA store and looked at all the cool stuff....so much to see that Brooks couldn't focus on the camera!


You're almost there Brooksie just a few more feet!

Stopping for a family photo shoot in Central Park.


Beautiful view from NJ of the NY skyline.




I love this pic....no more kisses mom seriously!
