The Big Apple

So I am still without a camera. I don't know what I'm waiting for, but I better get moving quick as Halloween is coming up. I've been eyeing sales and coupons at my fave stores, but nothing has motivated me yet from my slump!

But I digress. Since I have been sans camera since July, I had to buy a (gasp!) disposable one when Jason and I went to NYC in September. You should have seen people's reactions when I whipped that thing out. I thought my friend Dave was going to bust a gut laughing at us. Speaking of Dave, he works for the USTA and gave us FREE tickets to the US Open! So Jason and I took a wonderful vacation to my most fave city in the world. Even more importantly, we had wonderful babysitters who took excellent, loving care of our children while we were gone.....thank you Nana and Papa!

At the Williams' sisters quarterfinal match.



Federer's quarterfinal match.



We saw Matt Damon on the Dave Letterman show!



Dave hooked us up with courtside seats for the Williams sisters. We were unprepared to get an autograph from Miss S, but watched her sign them right in front of us.



It was actually a tough match for them for once, went 3 sets.



In the press room during our VIP tour of the stadium. We walked right past Billie Jean King outside.



We spent many hours at Arthur Ashe.



One rainy evening we had drinks at the revolving bar at the top of our hotel, then dinner with my friend Carla, and then......Mamma Mia on Broadway! It was great, I am officially obsessed with that musical.
