A few weeks back Rylynn had a big experience! Gilly, Rylynn and I went to the big apple with Gilly's family. Caitlin (one of his sisters) graduated with her Master's from Columbia. (Congratulations Caity, we are so proud of you.) Rylynn was excellent on the trip, and I was looking forward to posting so many pictures and stories when we returned, but it seems that I lost my camera somewhere between Baltimore and Lampasas. Luckily, my mother-in-law had a few good ones that I'm able to share with ya'll. Rylynn slept on both legs of our flight up there. . . thank goodness. The flying was my real concern, but she did excellent. After settling in on the first day, we took a trip to BK to see Caity's apartment and some of Brooklyn. We sat on her stoop, went to a park nearby and ate some great burgers. I was thrilled to be able to meet up with my old friend, Tara who I had met in Corpus when we both lived there. It was so nice to see her and meet Chad, they live just a couple stops away from Caity and Tyler!
Monday we went on a big adventure to The Bronx Zoo. It was great. The weather was perfect and Rylynn actually seem to enjoy some of the animals. I think her favorite was the brown bear because he was taking a swim and splashing about. Tuesday we ventured out into the rain to attend Caity's graduation. I just wish the weather had been nicer so that we could have walked around the Columbia campus a little.

Happy Graduation!
We packed up and headed back on Wednesday. As I said, Rylynn was great traveling and I couldn't have been prouder of her. Once back in Texas it took a little time to get back on our nap schedule and eating routine. But we're already looking forward to another big trip soon!
With love. . .
