While we generally disagree on a multitude of things on a daily basis, there are very many things I have in common with the guy I'm marrying. Number of hours our tv is on ESPN, for example...disagree. Pizza for dinner AGAIN...disagree. Dishes in the sink vs. the dishwasher each night....DISAGREE. Wait. I was going somewhere with this.
Ah. The things we have in common.
LOVE OF NEW YORK!
love of subways!
love of streetsigns?Nope. BBQ!!!
Good thing I kept a copy of my itineraries taped to the inside of my jacket (Away We Go reference, anyone?).
MmmMMmmm...smells great in this subway.As soon as I figured out that we could be there for the 7th annual BIG APPLE BBQ Festival, I don't think my fingers could type or click fast enough to book those flights!! BBQ!!
Left Vegas on a plane to JFK then a subway ride to a midtown hotel room where Jamie was waiting to go get dinner. 11pm arrival, dropped my bags, and took off again for the East Village + Arepas! So.worth.everything. Best Satnight dinner. We found a terrific frozen yogurt place, held hands, and strolled through the streets FILLED with folks going out + partying. Perfect people watching. But no partying for us...a few more meandering moments then to bed.
Faux Bill Cosby sighting.
Sunday was an absolute 'nother story! Lots of partying for us on Sunday!! Luckily the BBQ Festival was weekend long so we were able to get Trish down from Connecticut to join us...and our partying!
Grubbin' on some ribs.
Almost ditched my new fiance for this guy + his shirt.
it's so green here in the summers.

We found Trish's brother + girlfriend on the corner of Ribs Ave and Coleslaw Way.
One Arizonan, Two Kentukyans, and an Connecticutan = lost.
Get yourselves here asap.As I mentioned awhile back, I LOVE this store.
So many points of inspiration for future crafting!
Lots of long, dangly chandeliers....envy.Don't worry, we sent Jamie to some more boy-affiliated shopping.
We thought this looked like a mini version of Devon's wedding gown.
Don't you think??
We said our "see ya laters" to Trish Sunday afternoon.
I found my obligatory red velvet cupcake.
And we wrapped up our day with some glorious sunshine in Washington Park.
We love this town.
