Summer in the City

Summer has finally arrived in NYC. We've had a mix of sunny, warm days and rainy, muggy days over the last week. This Saturday (Aug. 1st) was a warm, sunny day - but slightly humid. We took advantage of the weather by meeting several friends in Sheep Meadow in Central Park.

For those that are unfamiliar with Central Park, Sheep Meadow is in the lower third, stretching between 66th and 69th streets on the west side (more details here). This is what Justin and I consider our outdoor space in the city - we just happen to share with thousands of our closest friends!

Anyway, we found a good shady spot and were joined by
  • Chat, Nina, Ketun, and Naya (7 month old twins)
  • Sarah Goulding
  • Phil and Ylang (with baby on the way - due mid-December)
  • Lisa, Rich, and Niamh (almost 2)
  • Judy (Jenn's Mom)
We shared great snacks, enjoyed the weather, and more importantly, had a great time catching up some friends. Pictures are below.

School Projects

Jack has a school project due this Friday. The project is to visit a specific historic landmark in the city and then put together a write-up about the visit and place. Jack's location is Hamilton Grange which was the country home of Alexander Hamilton. We visited a few weeks ago (yep, we've have the assignment this long). Finally, Jack started putting together the project today. OMG, it was like watching me from 30 years ago. There was denial and defensiveness, then came tears and finally he produced really good work. If this is what the next 15 years are going to be like, we are in trouble. Also - sorry Mom, I know I tortured you with this experience many many times.
