Frasier Crane

I turned 40 this year and Matt gave in a let me get a dog for my birthday. I have wanted an Airedale terrier for as long as I can remember and I finally got one. It helped that they don't shed and are hypoallergenic for Emma Kate. This pup has stollen my heart! 

Here is the first day we met. The breeder let two males out of the kennel and he ran right up and kissed me. That was it! These pics are from his first two months in the family...not in order and not all captioned. Clearly, he has grown in size and in our love for him. We got him when he was 7 weeks and 11 pounds. Currently, he is 4.5 months old and 30 pounds. 

NYC

We took the kids for their first trip to NYC...my favorite place in the world (and my third trip since last February). The loved the sights, smells, subway rides, street food, and shopping.

Tea at the Plaza was a dream come true for me. I have wanted to take my daughter(s) since before I had them! It was everything I had hoped it would be; a special afternoon indeed.

The Loeb Boathouse is one of my favorite places in the city. We ate on the water open air style and it was magnificent. 

A bit wet but still so wonderful

Aren't the Yankees "America's" team? Why is my son a Mets fan?

Blue Man Group was a highlight for the kids.

Frozen was beyond expectations...amazing! It would have been nice to see Hamilton with the kids, but this saved us a few thousand dollars. 

My pre-show "this isn't Hamilton"face...Little did I know how awesome it would be. 

What a wonderful trip with my people!
