Off To New York City!!

Sunday, Matthew and I came out to New York City where he started work on Monday. Before we left we had our good DFW friends the Suttons and the Watkins over for a farewell dinner. We had a lot of fun in Texas over the summer and were sad to say goodbye.


We are now in New York City, staying at a hotel right across from Madison Square Garden. It is such a great location, only a 5 minute walk to Times Square, Broadway, Pinkberry, and Empire State. If you can’t walk to it, we are close to major subway lines that can get us anywhere in the city pretty fast.

Matthew has been working pretty late, but Thursday he got the day off. They were planning an outdoor activity and we had quite the rainstorm Wednesday night, so it got cancelled and everyone got a free day off. We took advantage of the free time and hit up Shake Shack for lunch, did some grocery shopping and spent some time walking around both Union and Times Square taking in all that was around us. It was a great day…

We are looking forward to being here the next couple weeks while Matthew does his training. We will move out to San Francisco at the end of August.
