New York

My wife and I leave tomorrow for our anniversary trip. We're going to New York for 3 days. We've never left the kids before for longer than just during the day when we're gone just for fun (we went to a conference for 3 days a couple of years ago). We're both really excited. It will be nice to experience NYC with my wife. Neither of us has been before, so I'm sure we'll look like wide-eyed tourists the whole time.
We get back on Saturday night and then the next day I get to preach. I'm really excited about that, too, it's just going to be kind of rushed making sure that I'm ready for it. JM

New York City

My wife and I are going to NYC for our anniversary this coming weekend. I'm just amazed at how much it is costing. The hotel is costing us just over $700 for two nights. That is so stinking expensive. All told, this trip will probably cost us close to $1500. We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon for 5 nights and it only cost us $2200. NYC is just an expensive place to visit, I guess. It's going to be awesome. This will be the first time since we've had the kids where we have time away just to enjoy each other and I won't be doing work. I'm excited. JM
