earth day in central park

This weekend we decided to test ourselves and see if we were smart enough to figure out how to get from our apartments to Central Park. The train station is only about a 10 min walk from our house so we were able to do it without getting in our car at all...which was very important and green of us as we were heading to Earth Day. Earth Day is where thousands of people gather to create even more garbage than they would had they stayed home. But it sure was fun!

The kids, especially Cody, loved the train more than anything else. Everytime the train would whistle he would yell, "Hear choo-choo!"

There were tables and tables full of the most amazing ribbon to decorate your own crown. If you know me very well you know my weakness for ribbon, so I cut a few pieces "for the crown" but they really went straight into my purse. hee hee.

Jared and Simi came with us. Justin used to frame under Jared at L&T when Justin was only 14!
