Lisa the marathon runner!

Had an amazing weekend in NYC with some of my best girlfriends to see Lisa run the NYC marathon.  Not only am I RIDICULOUSLY proud of her, she made the most of her experience and was contagiously ecstatic.  From the inspiring Fred's Team runners (who raised over 4.2 million dollars for Sloan Kettering Cancer Hospital!) to the quaint coffee shops in Greenpoint Brooklyn that welcomed us.  From the free PBR's at the Irish Pub overlooking the race course to watching the faces of the 47,000 people who finished the race.
An amazing experience from beginning to end.
While I was gone the kids went to this new playground on the esplanade that we have been waiting to open.  It was fully funded by private donations (mostly parents of the private school kids from the area) so you can imagine how cool it is.  We will have to go back soon because Richie was not able to conquer all of the play things.  He hasn't stopped talking about the zip line and has been trying to build one in the house (the latest was with the dogs leash) for the past couple of days.
