Jeremy and Carrie tie the knot!

Last weekend we headed to Manhattan to see our great friends Jeremy and Carrie get married in Central Park! It was a beautiful ceremony and we were so happy to get to be part of the festivities. It was a fabulous weekend with our good friends and we enjoyed our time there immensely.

While there, we stayed at the swanky W hotel downtown. Our room overlooked the world trade center site -- which was a rather humbling view of the city. North loved spending time on the window seat looking out over the city.

Ready for a day on the town...
Breakfast stroll to the Hudson where we looked out on the Statues of Liberty, Ellis Island, and some great skyline.

And North enjoyed playing on the park benches

North had his first NYC subway ride!

And enjoyed seeing Grand Central Station. We explored a bit with Jeremy, Carrie, and Mila, got a great lunch, and North and Mila played and played. Then we headed back to the hotel to get ready for the wedding!
North gussied up!
Short nap in a taxi. North found taxis the best places for sleep while on our trip.

The Clarke family! It was a beautiful, intimate ceremony in Belvedere castle. We 3 Milner's got the great honor of holding the 3 rings. North loved getting to give Mila hers!

Signing the certificate at dinner after the wedding - Alan and I got to be the witnesses!

Hotel lobby with it's crazy lighted ceiling.

Hanging out on the patio.

The next day we met the newlyweds and Mila for a visit to Battery Park. North and Mila loved playing in the fountain on the hot day.

And even convinced Jeremy to join in the fun.It was a fabulous weekend and it was hard to head back home -- North was great in the car though.
