NYC

Our first stop on our vacation was New York City. We went to time square first which I have to admit was not my favorite place to be and I don't thin the kids liked it either, it was crowded and dirty and the kids said there was way to much walking involved. We tried to go to Staten Island to see the Statue of Liberty but the fog was so thick we could not see a thing. That was a little disappointing becaus thats what I really wanted to see. So the next day it cleared out so we drove to Jersy City where you can see the Manhatten skyline and the Statue of Liberty. We could only see the back of the Statue of Liberty but thats ok I can finally say I've seen it!

This is one of the flags they pulled from the ruble of the Twin Towers.

THE MANHATTEN SKYLINE!

Wahington DC memorials

Glen and I had a great time at the memorials on New Years day. We left the kids with Glens brother, we then walked about 3 miles to 3 different memorials. It was a great reminder of what great men we had leading our Country. There is no doubt in my mind that God prepared them to be on this earth at that time and allow the Lord to accomplish his work.

I had to put this picture in first because if you wern't paying attention on this path you might end up with a big headache!

The reflecting pond, the Washington Monument

The Korean War Memorial. It was so somber at this memorial, you can see the stress and fatigue on the faces of these soldier. It brings to life how real this war was.

The Franklin D Roosevelt memorial was one of my favorites. It was a path of waterfalls, statues and some of his famous quotes.

This is the Thomas Jefferson Memorial. I'm amazed at how big they are.
