New York trip in a nut shell


















I can't believe so much time has gone by and I haven't even posted about New York. Jane and I got to go to New York October 15th through the 18th to visit our friends Paul and Andrea Boerem. Despite Jane getting sick and it being really cold, we had such a fantastic time. We love Paul and Andrea so much. They were so nice to let us come stay with them and be our personal tour guides of the city. Jane had so much fun playing with their two cats. I am going to try to tell you about all the fun things we did without writing twenty pages. So here we go.
Thursday October 15th:
Sad to leave our cute boys in the morning
Arrived in New York around 5:00p.m

Survived the pouring rain and the cab ride to Paul and Andrea's apartment around 7:00
We were so happy to see Paul and Andrea
Jane was so excited to play with Paul and Andrea's two cats

Have been running around all day and we are in the middle of the city while she feels so lousy :(
Andrea finds a pharmacy, we get Jane some medicine
Paul finds a big, soft chair to rest in
Paul gives Jane a blessing and she falls asleep. I am so thankful for Paul and the power of the priesthood. :)
