Mission Accompished!!

 


After much hard work this weekend Dave finished the coop and the hens could move back in! There are a couple of things still to do (like the door for the window) but we are just so thrilled that they are able to have more room. The hens were so excited as each board came off of their run and that they could see us and the world again (and we were so excited to be able to see them)! xo

Fourteen Years Ago...

Scenes from NYC (and NJ)

 On Sunday we traveled down to NJ so that Grace could attend the International Beauty Show on Tuesday (for student day). We had dinner with Dave's parents and then got settled into our hotel room which had this fabulous view of NYC. 

On Tuesday, Dave brought Grace to the Javits Center for the convention and then came back to collect us (and his parents) so that we could head into the city to explore before picking up Grace and then beginning our journey home. We saw this when we arrived at Port Authority and had to take this in honor of my mom (who grew up in the Finger Lakes region). 

The Vessel is even more impressive in person! 
We stopped into the Shops at Hudson Yards and had some lunch. 

Waiting for Grace. 
The Collectiv Academy group. 

It was a wonderful mini-vacation, though really I probably should have taken Wednesday (today) off too so that I could have recovered from all that walking we did in the city! Grace and the Collectiv group had an amazing time at the convention. We grabbed dinner at a diner in NJ before heading home, which was the prefect ending to our fabulous trip! xo
