Unwelcome intruder...

I hate cockroaches. In fact, I despise them.

My bold, heroic man just spent the last 2 nights exterminating our kitchen to get rid of these intruders. If there is ever a time I am brave, it is most certainly NOT when these guys are around. No matter how big or small, just the mere sight of one of them...& I squirm, I shriek, I yell, I jump up and down. I act like a total lunatic. Seriously.

So tonight, Kyle pulled apart our microwave, where more than ten of these bad boys were hiding. I tried to cheer him on, but the sight was more than my unbrave, uncourageous, cockroacher hating body could handle.

However, I am proud to say, we are now cockroach free! From the countertops to the floors to the...microwave, random as that is. I just hope we never ever ever have to repeat this again.

All I can say is I used to be completely in love with this wonderland we call New York City. Now, I am having second thoughts...

the changing seasons...

Don't you just love the fall?

The changing colors of the leaves...

The crisp outside air...

And now, experiencing all of this in NYC...

Doesn't this image appear to come straight from a fairytale?

I love Central Park & the best part is that all this exists just a few simple steps from my front door!

Tourin' the city...

The Kings of NYC!

This amazing fella....

And this handsome dude...

Are New York bound. Today. 5 awesome days with them in this bustling city...I can't wait!

lonely

The man is out of town today & yes. His girl misses him.

She thought it might be fun to have a 2 day shopping spree, to do facials and manicures and all that girly stuff that she sometimes resists when he is around. At least she told herself this would be fun.

Wrong. Typical "newlywed?"

Maybe.

Good thing she has only 28 hours and 30 minutes until he returns, because even that could not come fast enough.

he bought me a surprise...

Kyle came home with a present for me. Totally caught me by surprise. When he said the word surprise, I was thinking flowers maybe...

Nope. It wasn't flowers.

Nope, it wasn't chocolates or a new shirt or jewelry.

It was a new Razor. Now we both have them. Kind of funny. Two adults scootin' through the streets.

But, oh how convenient it can be here in the city. A big time-saver & I love that.

And oh how we love feeling like little school boys without a care in the world as we zoom through the streets!

Couldn't be happier!

a day at the museums

i love our saturdays!!

Museum of the City of New York

MOMA

I saw this. In real life, just inches away. Van Gogh's famous Starry Night

And this... Andy Warhol's Campbell Soup collection. Honestly, a whole collection on the 32 flavor variety of Campbell's soup. And he is famous for it.

We also saw a suit, pinned to the wall. That was it. And wa-lah. Art worthy enough to be exhibited in one of the most famous museums in NYC. I am beginning to think Kyle should have become an artist...
