we( us, clint, riley, jency, and ty) drove to Newark, New Jersey.
took a ferry by the Statue of Liberty. 
landed in manhattan.
Lincoln got a black and white cookie!
walked to Wall Street and the financial district where I bought knockoff designer glasses. (I undoubtedly lose my sunglasses every trip we take! I am not responsible enough for an expensive pair, so 2 for $15 can't be beat!) the wind was so intense! Crazy, suck the air out of your mouth, blow your hat down the street kind of wind!
We saw the bull statue.
road the subway to time square.
shared a street vendor hotdog.
walked to Central Park where Lincoln saw the horses pulling carriages and played in the park.
It was a cement playground. I know there are multiple play areas( when my family came years ago, we played at an all wood one) he loved getting out of his stroller. 
went to the 30 rock statue.
went to a mall to go to the h&m. Clint needed a sweater(the wind) and Lincoln needed some shoes he would be less likely to pull off. it was wishful thinking, but they are darn cute shoes.
Shared a frozen yogurt.
oh yah it was Mother's Day! 
Hopped back on the subway, it smells as bad as it looks. armpit, straight armpit.
waited for the ferry, where an intense kooky bag lady freaked out on Clint for taking a picture; she believed he caught her in the background. but he didn't, he tried showing her, but she was just a pissy lady. 
All pooped out, we rode the 18 minute ferry back to Newark, then walked back to our cars and drove home! we basically tried every mode of transportation, but plane and bicycle I guess.
it was kalob and Lincoln's first visit to the big apple! We plan to go again before the summer is through. 
So fun! I really want to go to New York and see a Broadway play--ask Lorin, I've told him this dream a million times! I loved all of your pictures and am glad you had a great Mother's Day!
