The girls from the New York Liberty and I hung out after their game in Seattle! We had a lot of fun - they are CRAZY!!!

The boat tour was sooooo cold! Here we are with our cups of hot chocolate! A great way to spend my last evening! Goodbye New York City!

manhattan island from the water...

Cat and I went on a harbor boat cruise the last evening I was there - we saw many sights and heard a lot about the history of NYC. A great way to see the city!

the brooklyn bridge...

One day, while venturing out on my own, I walked across the Brooklyn Bridge. It was so amazing!

This city never sleeps! It was so fun to spend a week hanging out in the Big Apple!

I also got to see my friend, Cat, play a preseason game at Madison Square Garden against the Houston Comets! She is the one with the ball!

This past week, I met up with my friends from Northern Ireland, Craig & Sonia in New York City! Here we are in Washington Square enjoying the sun and relaxing!

We enjoyed a meal out at my parents' house on Sunday evening - a great reunion of my parents and Michael.

The hike down to the falls was well worth the time! What a gorgeous place!

Cat and I took Michael to Snoqualmie Falls one afternoon - beautiful!

The sun was out when we went to Kerry Park! Snap the photo quick!

a good ol' american hotdog...

Michael had never eaten a hotdog before - so what better time that at a Mariner's game? He had to have the "American experience" - seeing a baseball game for the first time and eating a hotdog!

sightseeing in seattle...

My friend Michael came to visit from Northern Ireland so we spent a lot of time sightseeing around Seattle and even took a ferry out to Bainbridge Island...not such a nice day, but oh well!

Some friends invited me to go to the Sonics game - we had great seats! And the Sonics were playing the Houston Rockets so I got to see Yao Ming - he is 7'6"!!

easter with the fam...

Easter dinner was quite fun! My family and another family celebrated together! Lots of yummy food!
