Happy Valentine's Day from the Big Apple


On Valentine's Day weekend we took a bite out of the Big Apple with Emily and Joseph. It started with some real New York deli food at the Carnegie Deli on Thursday night (February 12, 2009), followed by the lights on Times Square and a performance of "Wicked" for Em and Joe. The next day we got to see the sites around Manhattan and we celebrated the Butler's 11th wedding anniversary! Joseph was in such a good mood that day that he purchased a Rolex watch. We thought it was a little extravagant, but I guess that $25 for a genuine Rolex from the guy on Canal Street with watches in his coat pocket wasn't too bad. On Saturday we went to the Top of the Rock (top of Rockefeller Center and to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Sunday we attended church at the Manhattan 1st Ward and then we had to come home. It was a great weekend!
