A bit of a blogging hiatus but we shall now Jai Ho! ;-)

Goodness, it's been awhile! I don't even know where to begin... So, I decided to just post on the last group of pics stored in my camera. I went to NYC for Radik's birthday. We spent the day relaxing and then went to dinner. We were running late and it was raining outside so we picked a quick place to eat at. While we were at dinner I kept having this feeling that I had been there before and then I remembered (when they brought out pickles and coleslaw) when Dad and I visited NYC together we had found this place "The Stage Door Delicatessens" thinking it was a place Grandpa would eat at after his shows when they lived in NYC. We were SO excited and called Grandpa up to let him know we were eating there. He asked us what the cross streets were that it was on. It ended up not even being remotely close to where his "Stage Door" place was. ;-) That trip was so much fun with Dad. Dad is the greatest travel companion. After dinner we went to the NY Rangers vs. NY Islanders game. There were SO many great fights. The only other hockey games I had been too were for the Caps here in D.C. (and Anson's games!) but I've come to the conclusion those New Yorkers are a little bit more intense. Plus, the fights in the crowd were pretty bad too. It was a fun game and I've always wanted to see Madison Square Garden, which ended up reminding me a lot of the NYC subway. :( Since we had relaxed all day we still had a lot of energy and ended up finding a bowling place at Port Authority. We went crazy taking "action" pictures. I've posted a few below. They are pretty nerdy but I LOVE the 7th one down. Radik of course wanted it deleted but I seriously doubt he would delete a picture of me that was this great. ;-) The next day on my way home, I was able to see Richie, Chrislynn and the little munchkins. I wish I would have taken pictures. :( It was so nice to spend time talking with Chrislynn even if it was for a hot little second and those kids are really the cutest! Richie was amazing in his show and sent me on with a great CD mix that made the drive home possible along with a book on tape of "Eat, Pray, Love" that I MUST return to my cute friend Leslie!!!
