Lunch with Nana and Opa

Over the weekend we stopped by to see Nana and Opa Urban, set up their new fax/copier/printer, and have some lunch.

Testing out the beach tent from Mark, Jen, and Lou after a morning in the snow.

Set up so you can still see the Olympics on TV…

…and perfect for napping (or pretend napping).

4th.. 5th..? Snow day of the year

On Friday NYC’s schools were closed and the city was crippled up to their ankles in 8-10 inches of snow!  All roads to Noah’s day care were also rendered impassible, yet in the face of all these mounting challenges, we survived.

So Noah and I dressed in funny clothes and took a walk to Prospect Park.

All the snow storms have been given nicknames lately.  The last one was called the “Snowpocalypse”.  This latest storm was dubbed the “Snownami”.  Someone on the Colbert Report had the best name so far for a storm though..  “Snowtorious B.I.G.” (for those people in NH and Kentucky, Notorious B.I.G. was an influential rapper who was tragically killed in his prime…  “rap” is an urban form of musical expression…  music is that think that comes out of the wine jug when your toothless friend blows in it…).

New Yorkers are amazing..  I saw 4 maybe 5 cross country skiers.  All of them moving slower than I was walking.

Agreed.

A corny, out of focus look at us.

Somehow our car managed to get buried again.
