grandville, mi
so on sat we made our way into grand rapids, michigan for the isn't she beautiful conference put on by rob bell and the folks at mars hill. we headed first to thor and becky's place - had a great meal with them on sat and hung out most of the sunday.
the snow was coming down pretty good on sunday afternoon - so we hopped in the car and made our way back to grandville (where we are now) and check into the hotel and watched the bears seal a spot in the superbowl! so great!!
after the game we headed out the sunday night church with our great friend jason gore and his buddy shannon. it is so great to be hangin with gore this week. their plane was a little delayed - so we missed all of the singin but got to hear rob preach. oh yea.
now it is monday morning and we are off for some bfast and our first day of the conference. cant wait!!

NYC Trip: Day Three
it was our last day in the city, and first thing in the morning we headed for the empire state building. the line was about 2 hrs long - but WAY worth it. if you get the chance, you gotta get to the top. simply breath-taking. here are the pics:
after the empire state building it was time to head down to battery park and see lady liberty
after the battery park area we made our way back up to central park and walked around. it was a beautiful time.
so after two days of walking the town - this was looking really good! we checked out of the hotel and had our last meal at the dave and busters in times square then hopped the train back to nj. hope you enjoyed the pics. many thanks to matt for the pics!!

NYC Trip: Day Two
it was an early morning - but well worth it. we got to the hotel - Times Square Hilton (thanks dad!!) - around 10am after a simple train ride - left our bags and headed out for a full day of the town.
the train station in the morning
this was a store that i NEEDED to come back and check out - but did not have time - next time marlow you come and we will hang here!!
broadway st in soho
the infamous dean and deluca! we had a great time walking around soho first thing in the morning. then we headed up to NYU, through Washington Square Park and then up 5th ave to Union Square Park and passed the Flat Iron Building.
Marlow, this one's for you! ha!
washington square park
5th ave looking north towards the empire state building
we have become project runway fanatics - we had to see parsons!! but no tim gunn....
after a full day of walking around we headed back to the hotel for some rest and rejuvenation - it was time to head back out to times square and rockafeller center at night!
the view from our hotel window
times square
the crowd at rockafeller was unbelievable. so so many people. there was a 2 and half our wait just to buy tickets for the skating rink! craziness! but the tree was awesome. after we saw the tree we walked past st patricks cathedral and all the way up the the apple store. so sweet!!
needless to say we were ready for some food and rest. it was a long day of walking around town. we headed back to times square for some dinner at olive garden then we crashed hard. empire state building, ground zero, and liberty island on schedule for tomorrow.

THE PICTURES!!
ok - here are the 'before' pictures. here comes the tour!!
so this is the front door and when you walk in you are in the living room. then keep walking straight and look right = the kitchen
there is a door on the left of the kitchen that takes you outside to the HUGE yard. come over and we will throw the football around - k?
when you walk back inside and look to the right (across from the kitchen) you are in the dinning room
the door on the left of the dinning room takes you out to the garage
if you walk back from the garage and into the living room and hang a left down our hallway the first room on the right is our 1st bedroom, which is also known and the office / studio (sorry about the mess - the other pic w/out the mess didnt come out to well)
here is the office closet
walk out of the office and down the hallway to the left is our 2nd bedroom - come and stay with us please!! you have a room now!!
and it's closet
when you walk out of the 2nd bedroom and go straight - the bathroom is on your left
and here is the bonus - you can see our bedroom furniture!! same thing with these 'before' pics - didnt come out that great - so here is our bedroom
hope you enjoyed the tour - we will hopefully have some 'after' pics at the end of the week - and if not that then after the new year!
