Politics and Play in the City

Today was just BEAUTIFUL. We decided to take a family trip into New York City.
Above, you see Trenton wearing his "Miso Handsome" shirt (thanks Gabe!). He got lots of comments on that one during our day!

We took the bus into the Port Authority and walked up to Central Park. The Heckscher Playground has recently been remodeled and is located on the south end. Trenton LOVED playing with the sand, chasing after balls, and laughing with other kids. We stayed for quite awhile at this park-- more and more people just kept coming! See the video for proof!

Above, Jim poses with T and Kodi. We haven't seen Kodi in a long time! He is now living in South Beach, Miami and recruiting models for his own agency (yeah, that's him in the link with JD's crew-- done with that gig). Kodi was in town for the week and we're lucky we got to meet up with him.

Barack Obama was a featured speaker at the National Action Network's annual convention. Being as it was free, and we were interested in hearing the senator, we headed on over to the Sheraton to show our support.

Yeah, we were really far back. You can see better coverage and a video here.

Cool part-- as we were leaving, Obama and Sharpton were leaving, too! In the above picture, you can see me and T at the bottom (click on the picture to enlarge). Barack is to the right of the guy in the grey hat. Below, T looks like he is touching the senator's head! Thanks for taking some great pictures, Daddy!
