New Year's in New Jersey

We had a fabulous time in New Jersey with our precious friends, Ike and Steph Welsh. We visited them for New Year's 2 years ago, and we were all excited to celebrate together again. On Dec. 30, we went into NYC for some sightseeing. It was already crazy in Times Square! Then, we took the ferry back across the Hudson River to Weehawken, New Jersey where we ate dinner...at Ruth's Chris. I really thought David was going to die he was so happy!! This was Ike's 12th trip to Ruth's Chris, and he has been bragging it up for years to David! It really was a delicious meal! Then we went to the ChartHouse for mud pie for dessert...except they wouldn't seat us if we were just going to order dessert, so we ordered it "to go" and snuck up to the second level to eat it where there was a balcony with an incredible view of NYC. We also saw the movie "Rocky Balboa" together (kind of a snoozer) and did lots of shopping at the world-famous Mall at Short Hills.



On New Year's Eve we had incredible cheese and chocolate fondue and played lots of games. Unfortunately, Steph and I lost to the guys in our Rook tournament. We're so glad we got to spend New Year's with Ike and Steph! Can't wait to see you guys again--hopefully soon!!! Happy 2007, Everyone!
