summer weekends

Although the summer officially started this past Saturday, I feel like it has been in full swing for a while. Bryan & I have gotten into a summer weekend routine. Staten Island Friday evening, dinner with his parentals, double header softball games early Saturday morning, & either off to the city or back in Nyack to enjoy the rest of the weekend. So far we have had jam packed weekends . . . . 

walked the highline & cooled down with popsicles

strolled through the 9th Avenue fair

ate oysters by the Hudson River

brunch at Jacob's Pickles

celebrated Hollis' birthday

explored Piermont on a sunny day

look ma, I have curls! 

took the tram to Roosevelt Island - how cool is this abandoned Smallpox Hospital built in 1854?!

a view of Manhattan from the south end of the island.

nailed it

Not pictured are a few backyard BBQ's, hammock swings, a wardrobe meltdown, & celebrating 40 years of shark entertainment {aka me squeezing the life out of Bryan's hand}.
