A Blazing Weekend

We went to New York for the weekend. We arrived home today exhausted after a weekend of partying it up Big Apple style.

Our weekend started in Sleepy Hollow. Grandma, Aunt Jen, and Aunt Kat met us there. We flew into New Jersey. We drove to Sleepy Hollow. On Saturday morning Mom and the Aunts did a 10K in Sleepy Hollow. We joined them at lunch time. We ate at a firefighter themed pub. Then we toured around downtown. Mom loved the Halloweenish stuff. We loved the firetrucks and bounce house at the street fair. We toured the cemetery too.  Mom loves old cemeteries. Daddy does not find them interesting and neither do we. At night we went to a big jack o'lantern show called the Great Blaze. After the Blaze we went out for dessert at a diner. We were out until 11:30 p.m. Party on!

Everyone was impressed by my stinky feet. I stayed in the Grandma and Aunts' room Saturday night so they could enjoy them.

On Sunday we said goodbye to Grandma and the Aunts and took a train to New York City. Our first stop was Times Square and the Hard Rock. We had dinner with Daddy's coworker Rajan and his daughter Ella...pizza of course. We got mini-cupcakes on the way back to the hotel.

Today we went to the Natural History Museum before flying home. Our favorite part was the gift shop. Mom cannot figure out how two kids who love dinosaurs so much didn't show much interest in dinosaur bones.

The police were very nice.
