Wednesday, 9/08/2010We took Clark, and Brady and Logan stayed with Nani and Grandpa Skidmore! They had just as much fun spending time with Nani and Grandpa!
We left Las Vegas, NV at 6:30am Pacific time, and we arrived in New York around 4:00pm Eastern time. We took a taxi from the airport to Brett and Kristi-Lynn's apartment, and met Kristi-Lynn and Sadie. We walked to Brett's work, and then went to Dinner at "Serendipity", which is a famous restaurant in the movie Serendipity. We tried the Frozen Hot Chocolate, and It was good!

We hung out with Kristi-Lynn and Sadie in the morning. We went to the Apple Store, FAO Schwarz, and toured Central Park. It is so beautiful!

Brett was able to take this day off, and we went to the US Open. We saw the Bryan Brothers win in the Men's Doubles Final, Kim Clijsters beat Venus Williams in the Women's Semi-Final, and Vera Zvonareva beat Caroline Wozniacki in the other Women's Semi-Final. It was fun to see live matches, and the weather was great. Then that evening we went to Citi Field to see the Mets play. The Mets lost, but we did enjoy some good food at the "Shake Shack"! We had fun learning to take the Subway! The Subway rides are always an adventure! Clark was a good trooper.

We rode the Ferry, and saw the Statue of Liberty. We went up to the Pedestal, and we watched Sadie while Brett and Kristi-Lynn went up to the Crown. It was such a beautiful day, and it was fun to see the sites. We also went to Ground Zero, New York Stock Exchange, and walked part of the way on the Brooklyn Bridge. We had some famous New York Pizza, and it was good. That night we met our friend, Shaun, at the Manhattan Temple, and then we drove to his house in New Jersey.

We went to church with Shaun and Maria and family, and then we visited with them the rest of the day. They were great hosts, and it was fun to see them. Thanks for a great time!

We rode the bus back into the City, and we met Kristi-Lynn and Sadie back at their apartment. Then we went to the Empire State Building. We walked back to their apartment, and on the way we saw Rockefeller Center, United Nations, and we got a cupcake at "Magnolia Bakery"! Then it was time to catch a taxi back to the airport. We were supposed to leave at 5:30 Eastern time, but we sat on the runway for about 2 hours due to some weather delays. We finally took off, but we missed our connecting flight in Denver, CO so we had to spend the night in Denver. I was tired and in a panic because Vance's Mom had to work at the Temple. Luckily, I was able to find someone to take Brady to school in the morning and watch Logan until we were able to get to Las Vegas. We arrived in Las Vegas, NV on Tuesday, 9/14/2010 at around 11:10am. We rushed to get our luggage, which was waiting for us at the airport, and met Burke in passenger pick up. We made it to pick Brady up from school, and take Logan to Pre-School. It was crazy, but everything worked out in the end, and we had a great time. Thanks to Brett and Kristi-Lynn for being such great tour guides.
