The Memory Post


This looked like fun after I posted one on Jens blog so I thought I would give it a try.

1. Add a comment of a memory you have of the two of us together. It doesn't matter if you know me very well or just a little, it can be anything. It can be a recent memory or from way back. Once you leave a comment I will assume you are playing too.

2.
Add these instructions to your own post and wait for the memories to start rolling in.

New York Botanical Gardens!!





The Saturday before last I went to the New York Botanical Gardens. It was absolutely amazing. It is one of the largest Gardens in the world I guess and I tried to cover it all. It sure is Huge covering over 250 acres. I tried to control myself with taking pictures and now I am kicking myself thinking about all that I missed. I am going to have to do a few slide shows to include them all though. The last slide has a bunch of frog pictures that might not make sense. I was watching the Wetland area and noticed that there where a ton of bull frogs there, a few minutes latter I also noticed that they where fighting each other. :( So those are pictures of them battling it out. There are also a bunch of pictures of sculptures who are done by an artist named Moore. I hope you enjoy looking at the pictures as much as i enjoyed taking them!

Hike with Rodger



So Rodger (the dog of the family I nanny for) and I decided to go for a hike the other day. Palisades New York is an absolutely gorgeous area with tons of bike and hiking trails. This is a picture of the trail we where on. A little bit down the trail we found a deer path that looked like it lead down to the river. Curiosity won and we decided to check it out. It lead to an abrupt cliff that dropped a couple hundred feet and had an absolutely wonderful view.

Sweet Husband

So yesterday morning I woke up to Nicholaus excitingly telling me to get up and be quick. He told me to get dressed and that i was not allowed to do anything with my hair. I was still half asleep when he started to tie a blindfold over my face. I was so confused and was getting upset! He took me down the elevator and into the car. (I could hear people laughing in the background as we went along!) He wouldn't tell me a thing and just kept saying how cute I looked when I was confused. Finally after driving around for a while he let me take the blindfold off. We where at an i hop for breakfast! How cute is that! He kidnapped me and took me to breakfast without any hints of wanting to!!! I told him he is giving me reason to forget to go grocery shopping more often. I really lucked out to get such a well trained guy. I just wanted to let everyone know what a sweet husband I have and that I love him a ton!! :)
