This weekend was awesome. We each had half days on Thursday for the holiday. And we had visitors! My Mom and Preston came see us for the weeken, we had a lot of fun doing all sorts of things even though it rained off and on.

These are some pictures Dusty took off City Hall, pretty cool buildings


So, these pictures are out of order but oh well. We went and watched the fireworks down by the Brooklyn bridge. At the end there was so much smoke from the fireworks and the clouds from the rain that we could barely see the finale.

This is Preston in the Met at the armor exhibit

even the horses got all decked out

It stopped raining for a little bit so we walked through central park

This was at the Brooklyn Bridge on July fourth, right now they have a water fall display going under the bridge



This was on Saturday, we went and tried a mexican restaurant which was fun, we were all soaking wet from the down pour

On Friday we went to see the Statue of Liberty, this is the Manhatten skyline

Taking a break to eat hot dogs and other foods of choice
eAt ellis Island, we were able to search for some records and find some relatives that came into ellis island. And we took an awesome tour
