The Marvelous Wonderettes


Kendall has been wanting to see a musical. Since we were in Times Square and it was almost 8pm we walked over to the TKTS to see what tickets were left. We ended up getting tickets to the Marvelous Wonderettes. The musical is about four girls who sing 50's and 60's songs. Half way through they musical you vote for prom queen. I was not thrilled about listening to fifties and sixties music for two hours but Kendall really wanted to go and it ended up being pretting cute. She reaaly enjoyed it and asked if she could watch it again. Afterward we were able to walk through Times Square and see the lights. Kendall thought this was neat. We have not been at Times Square this late.

Hershey's Store



Kendall wanted to go to the Hershey's store. As we walked into the store they were handing out Hershey's kisses. The kids are given hats and are able to turn the wheel of a machine that brings down candy and fills up a bucket.

Step Up 3D


We stopped in Grand Central Station to use the restroom and noticed they were filming a movie. Kendall wanted to stay and watch a while. They were filming Step Up 3D. We didn't recognize any anyone but Kendall enjoyed watching for a while.

East Side Street Fair



Kendall and I went to the East Side street fair today. Along the way we stopped at Daffy's and Kendall found a fleece jacket on sale. She decided she wanted to wear her new jacket out in the 82 degree weather. It didn't bother her too much.

Rodale Publishing

Kendall got the Job for Rodale Publishing. She will do the photo shoot on Monday in Montclair, NJ. They said she needed to know how to jump rope. I laughed since she wanted a jump rope when Tom was here last and he bought her one. Tom and I (yeah, Tom was jump roping with his bad knee) were showing her how to jump rope and she has been jumping rope in the apartment since.

Robert Moses Beach,Long Island









We took the train to Long Island today to go to the beach. We went to Robert Moses Beach on Fire Island. We have heard this a great beach. We got a late start and didn't get on the train until 1:40pm. The train ride was an hour and fifteen minutes. We then waited thirty minutes for the bus to come which took fifteen minutes to arrive at Robert Moses Beach. By then it was ten til four. We decided to stay for one hour since there was only two buses back to the train(one at 500 and one at 630). THe beach was beautiful and it felt good to be at the ocean. I decided not to change into my bathing suit and when I walked out into the water with Kendall a huge wave came up behind us coming up to my chest soaking me. We had fun playing in the water making sand castles.

Haven't been out for a few days


We went to the city today. We haven't been out since Monday! It has been quiet. The agency hasn't called this week. It has been slow since Kendall will be going home soon and won't be here and available much longer to do any jobs. We are just waiting for the jobs she is on hold for. I am getting anxious to get home to see everyone. We went to the American Girl Store today. Kendall has been waiting for them to get in the "Feel Better" kit for her doll. She has been waiting for it to come in since we got here. I think she likes it because it has a knee brace and foot brace. It also comes with crutches. When we first arrived and she saw this her dad had just had surgery and had a brace and crutches. I can't believe the things they have for these dolls!!
