It was vacation time for the Dexter family this month. Jon got three weeks off, I only got a week. We decided to go to New York to see Jon's family. We did so many things that I couldn't fit everything into my post. So here are a few highlights. Here we are at the Statue of Liberty. You can't go inside any more with out a reservation. And since we didn't know that, we were unable to go in. So we walked around outside, ate lunch and went to the gift shop. I think the boys liked the gift shop best.
We rode a ferry to the Statue of Liberty. Here are my boys with NYC in the back ground.
We went into NYC and saw so many things. We took a double decker bus tour, we saw time square, the 9/11 memorial, Wall street, and the Empire State Building. It was a lot to see in one day, but so much fun. The boys were so good and couldn't wait to see what we did next. Here we are at the top of the Empire State Building.
When we were visiting Jon's parents, we went to a Mets game. Jon loves the Mets and we see them play every year in AZ, so it was fun to see their home game. Too bad my favorite player was injured and they lost the game. Guess that gives us an excuse to go back someday for another game. Here we are at the game with Jon's mom.
While visiting Jon's parents we went to Bushkill falls in PA. We went on a 2 hour hike to see some waterfalls, then had a picinic. It was a hot day with lots of walking for the kids, but it was so beautiful to see all the falls that it was worth it. Here is Jon and Austin on the hike.
One of our stops is in Little Falls, New York to see Jon's mother's family. We don't do too much other than visit and eat lots of good food. It is so laid back with the Quinn's that time flys. I always hate when it's time to leave. Here is Jon and the boys with Grandpa, Grandma, sister Kari, cousin Natalia, and his aunt Shelly.
Our reason for going to New York was to see Jon's cousin Rob, get married. The wedding was so much fun. Lots of family, good food, and lots of dancing. Here are boys with their cousin Connor, Rob and his beautiful bride Kelsey.
At the wedding, Austin was a dancing machine and danced with all the ladies. He didn't care if they were dancing with someone else; He'd just tap them on the shoulder and start dancing. It was so much fun watching him pick who he'd dance with next. Here he is with his favorite bridesmaid. He picked her the most. We did a lot in the week I was there. Jon and the boys did tons of other fun things while there. It was so nice to see everyone and can't wait until we can do it again.
