Birthday Boy!

2 weeks ago Jeff and I headed into Manhattan to celebrate his 28th birthday with friends! Since Jeff is living in New York during the week for his rotation our weekends are extra special. We checked into our hotel room then went to meet up with friends at Carmine's Italian Restaurant. They have the most delicious spaghetti and meatballs!! Everything is served family style so we all enjoyed plates and plates of food and some delicious oreo cupcakes that Lori and Nick brought.

After dinner we headed down near NYU to do some bar hopping

On Sunday, Jeffs actual birthay, we decided to be tourists! We hopped on the ferry to see the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island up close. Lady Liberty was so beautiful, even though she is made of metal her dress looks so soft and just drapes across her body. We had such a great time just staring up at the statue and imagining what it must have been like to build her or see her as your first sight in the US.
