Cousin Brittaney traveled to visit us this past week. This was her first time in New York and she was not disappointed. Cindy took her shopping in a suburban mall paradise one day, then took her to New York City where they were joined by a friend who served as tour guide. The focus of the New York City trip was ... shopping. Yes, they saw some sights too including the Statue of Liberty (pictured below), Central Park and Times Square. They navigated quite capably through the subway system which Brittaney reported still smells like urine.
We all took Brittaney to Point Pleasant, New Jersey for an afternoon at the beach. We arrived at high tide which turned Brittaney into a chicken (sorry, it's true) but she was splashed pretty well nonetheless.
The boys enjoyed their time with their cousin who we wish the best as she embarks on her college career. She received an academic and sports scholarship (volleyball). We will miss her.
