Big Apple

I had the fabulous opportunity to go to New York City with Eric and no kids. I tagged along with Eric on his business trip. Poor guy really was on business, he worked his tail off while I played. I was able to spend wonderful quality time with Cathi and her little girl Annabelle. We had 2 full days together. We hit up a great yoga class at Laughing Lotus with founder Dana Flynn .
Ate great food in small restaurants around the village, went to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden to view the cherry blossoms. I believe we were about 2 weeks early for the full show but we did see a few trees in great display. The Magnolia trees were actually in full effect. We then had a double date dinner night with the Ellis's, that was fun to hang out with the boys. We also had a great bike ride along the Hudson river. The last full day was spent in my own company, no kids to feed or clean, no whining to address, nobody to answer to but me. So what did I do????? I did some yoga, ate some lunch, walked all around the West Village, Soho, and Nolita. I had a wonderful time in the city. If I could have changed anything I would have had Eric by my side but he was doing what he went there to do.

We have Jan and Reggie to thank for making this trip possible. It has been over 3 years since Eric and I both went away together without the kids. I can't tell you how much I appreciate you watching the kids while we went away. I hope you aren't too burned out. The kids certainly miss you both and so does Bodhi.
