new york, i love you

A few weeks ago, Jesse and I ventured up to Big Apple for a friends' wedding and had so much fun re-exploring the city that never sleeps. When we woke up on Friday morning - the city was covered by a fresh blanket of snow and it was just perfect. I lived in New York for a year before moving to Boston and NYC is my city of firsts. It was where I first lived away from my family, where I worked my first full time job, it was where Jesse and I started dating, and it was where I became a real grown up (well, kind of). For J and I, like so many we know, New York City has a certain kind of magic in it. People use annoying words like "energy" and "buzz" to describe New York and to be honest - it's irritatingly accurate. It was this energy that both exhausted and exhilirated me during my brief time in that beautiful city. Although I'm glad that God brought me to quaint and historical Boston - I can't help but miss that city that used to be my home. 

You have my heart, New York:)

This stud I found in the park:)

We couldn't afford to ice skate, so we did the next best thing - selfies in front of the ice rink. 
And then we found our future puppy at FAO Schwartz. Isn't he edible??!...figuratively, of course:) 
You have my heart New York, but it still needs to be said: Go Sox.
:)
