BODIES...The Exhibit

So Matt and I ventured into NYC last weekend to visit the Bodies Exhibit. Anyone who knows me, knows I think there is nothing more interesting, more fascinating, or more complex than the human body, and I love it! To me, it is indisputable evidence that there is a God. Something like this cannot just evolve, but was created. Men and women were created in the likeness and image of God.

We actually took the fairy in from NJ instead of taking the transit and subway, and it was nice for a change. The exhibit area was right next to a pier, so there was lots of shopping, eating, music, and fun all around. The exhibit itself was amazing! My favorite part was the circulatory system. I've seen the cadavers and stuff before, but with the circulatory system they were able to capture every aspect--so fascinating! Not for the light of stomach, however, so bring your 'spewing' bag or tighten your stomach.

Then on Monday for Memorial Day, we had a BBQ with some friends from the ward and the food was F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C! I'm hungry just thinking about it. :) But no, we took no pictures--we're pretty bad about that.

I wanted to play with them too

There was a mini golf place off of the pier!

Handy Dandy Hand outs

Since graduating from BYU, I have been involved with the Young Womens organization--both while in California and here in New Jersey. I think the Bishoprics are telling me I have a lot of growing up and maturing to do. :) I am currently the 1st Counselor and Miamaids advisor. So I'm really not the creative type, but for the combined lesson that I was teaching on the Priesthood I found the cutest thing. I found oragami directions for folding a collared shirt out of a dollar bill, but I exchanged the dollar bill for white to make it look like a Church shirt, and then found some ribbon for a tie. I was super excited for how cute it turned out. Then on the back I attached a quote that I really liked--what do you think?!

I never thought a harp was cool until last wkend. Allie and I went to a Yanni concert in NYC on Sat. Surprisingly really liked it. We'll post more later, but this guy almost makes you want to become a professional harpist.
