A courtroom in Independence Hall.

Where they wrote the Declaration of Independence.

Our beautiful Sunday brunch.  Grilled chicken salad and fresh sweet corn.  Yum.

We're so proud. :)

Working Hard or Hardly Working?

This is the construction of a 50 ft high tank for a Water Treatment Plant.  Also included is a picture of me (Denise) in a hard hat...don't laugh.

New York, New York

Only 2-1/2 hours away from the Big City, Brandon and I spent the weekend of Aug. 1-3 in New York City for our 1st Anniversary.  There is so much to see and do, it was almost overwhelming.  Here are a few snapshots of the weekend...

We stayed in a hotel just across the river in new jersey.  The rooms were a ton cheaper and it was just a 15 minute bus ride to the middle of Times Square.  We will definitely do the same thing next time. 

 Times Square...sooo busy.

We went to the broadway show, Hairspray, on Saturday.  It was so amazing and hilarious!

NBC Studios

The old site of the World Trade Center and the new site of the Freedom Towers.

Self-explanatory.

Brandon in the oh-so picturesque Central Park.

Beautiful.

D.C. on the 4th

We had such a great time! Definitely a memorable experience. Check out our pictures of the trip on our picasa website. http://picasaweb.google.com/brandon.brinkmeyer

Chocolate!!!!

Yesterday (Wednesday), we traveled only 45 min. to reach chocolate heaven....Hershey, PA. Here's a few pics...

First entrance.

Second entrance.


We just got in the tour cars (think Willy Wonka) to see what this place is all about. So excited!
So much chocolate!
Brandon is really really excited.

Chocolate Ave....but the streets are made of asphalt. How lame is that?


Hershey Kiss street lights.

Little by little...

The dent in the truck.

The new kitchen table.

Kitchen

Master Bedroom...a little bare, but it's a start. Brandon hung blinds in all the upstairs rooms. He's pretty much a rock star at hanging blinds now.

Speaking of rock star, here's the office/tv room/rock band haven.
