A New York City Whirlwind.

Went to New York this past weekend for a wedding (um, I mean THE wedding. of the century... our friends Angela and Eric.). We flew into Islip (Long Island) and stayed with Craig's mom Thursday night before heading into the city on Friday. While Craig and I were busy with wedding festivities, Kathleen watched Hank at the hotel - wonderful! Here are some pictures from our adventure.

Craig and Hank on the shuttle to the airport.

Craig and Hank at the airport waiting for the flight (Hank's 12th flight if you're keeping track!). Note his pants - he's ready for flight!

We stayed at the Affinia Shelburne in Murray Hill - highly recommend! It was perfect. Hank in the hotel bathtub :)

Angela and Eric's wedding was GORGEOUS. So thoughtful and personal, and everything was just perfect and lovely and beautiful. The ceremony was at St. Patrick's Cathedral and the reception at the Harvard Club. I don't have many pictures from the wedding at all, unfortunately, but you can see Angela's grandmother's dress in this one :) She changed into another for the reception (also incredibly stunning - she looked like a brunette Grace Kelly). Hopefully I'll be getting more pictures from some of the other bridesmaids. Really, though, I don't think pictures will be doing justice to this wedding until the photographer's are ready! I could go on and on about this wedding (the tasteful cotton theme, the singing, the dancing, the uber-artistic details on everything, the family and friend-filled sentimentality of it...). Really, though, I just don't have words. It was perfect in every way.

Some of the bridesmaids practicing our Elvis song before singing before the wedding guests! Love the sideburn glasses, huh?

Craig and I at the wedding reception - check out my earrings, a gift from the bride. Beautiful cotton bolls. I love them!

On the way back to Huntington, we drove through our old neighborhood, Forest Hills. The main reason? Martha's Bakery - strawberry cupcakes!!

Hank and Craig back in Huntington about to enjoy some of those cupcakes!
