During one of our City trips, we stopped by the sight of the twin towers. We expected to see a large memorial erected right at the sight of the tragedy but to our surprise, just lots of construction. However, I think that makes me happy. Instead of letting this area sit in ruins and remain a constant reminder of loss and devastation, New York is moving forward; looking to the future. Gone, but never forgotten.
Full of sushi, happy as can be, waiting for the train to arrive.
This past weekend we attended the American Museum of Natural History and let me just tell you...wow. I have never been to a more extravagent museum. Everything you could ever want to see in a day, I saw. It was such an amazing experience. Dinosaurs everywhere. Four levels of History/culture. Each different level was filled with hallways that focused on everything from the Planetarium, Hall of the Universe, to the Hall of Planet Earth.
Looking at these pictures now, I cant believe that these mammals walked the earth! What if they weren't extict? How would they fit into our world today? How would the world be different??
The museum was filled with little wide-eyed kids who were pointing at everything. Cant wait til we have one!!
This one's for you Taylor. We found the famous turtle.
Nice and firm. Just how I like it!
Wasnt this room in the "Night of the Museum" movie?
This rock is supposedly the oldest rock. Ever. Weird. What made this one older than all the other rocks around it?
The Wooly Mammoth!
Enlarge this picture. It's just weird.
Matt used to have a horse named Squirrel. Thus, when he saw this shirt, he had to have it. When we were in the Hall of Planet Earth, Matt came across this little guy. He claimed the moment was picture worthy.
On our way from the museum to 5th avenue, just past the Lulu Lemon store, we stopped at a red light, looked up to our left, and this is what we saw. This is the temple! You would never know it would ya?!
Pollution.
On a side note, this lovely girl pictured above with Christian Audigier, went on a little shopping spree with me. She convinced me to get these because really, they are a must have. This is why I heart her.

And these are currently sitting ever so contently in my closet!! Thank you Tory Burch!
After a week of chaos, we were finally packed up and ready to head out! With both of our cars loaded up, we made the trek to Las Vegas where we were able to spend two fun days with friends and family. We even got a chance to squeeze in a little birthday dinner for Matt with some of his closest friends.
Grandpa and Grandma Akridge got Matt this cute little Birthday cake. I think he enjoyed it! The expression on his face says it all.
