{my boys}
Last night Billy and I had a date night that consisted of just hanging out together at our home. I can't tell you how refreshing it was just to relax together and not have anything to do. Summer has been so busy for us lately...I play soccer on Monday nights and volleyball on Thursday nights and he refs hockey various nights during the week so it's sometimes hard to get in a good relaxing night together.
We really enjoy exercising together so I decided to take one for the team and run in the 100% humidity while he rode my bike (he has been going back and forth between what model of a bike he wants to buy for like a year now) WHILE holding Rocky. Rocky hates being left out and one of his favorite things is for Billy to hold him while riding a bike. It's seriously one of the cutest things to see. Note to self: must get a picture of it soon. I had a hard time running in the extreme heat, but really enjoyed having my 2 boys next to me.
Anyways, we made a scrumptious dinner after (he had steak tacos while I had fish) and then decided to watch the Adjustment Bureau.
I was excited to see this movie for a certain reason. If you've been following my blog for a bit, then you know of my love for NYC. But for the newbies..let me just clarify: I freakin' love NYC and wish I could live there. We went there for my Bachelorette party (1 out of 2..oops) last summer with my closest girlfriends from high school and had a blast. Well, one day we were in the city when we turned the corner and literally ran into this movie being filmed!
There was Matt Damon and Emily Blunt on the street corner right in front of us.
Like the creep I am, I immediately grabbed into my bag and got my camera {clearly both the cell phone and digi cam.} It was so cool to watch them filming the movie and to this day, I swear that Matt Damon and I locked eyes.
I thought I'd include some pictures from that day and from our time in NYC, so I can take a little trip down memory lane. One of my most favorite things about NYC are all the unexpected things that can happen...ALL of the possibilities...
PS-If you've seen this movie--the scene we saw them filming is when him and Emily are running at the end of the movie from the bureau and they are going through all the doors.

Of course I had to get one of his butt.
pretty cool, huh?

I can't wait to go back!
Tell me..
What is your favorite thing about NYC?
Do you love to visit there like I do?
I have never been to NYC but I want to go sooo bad! I cant believe you saw Matt and Emily filing that movie!! I haven't seen The Adjustment Bureau but I have been wanting to! Was it good? Also I am glad you got to have a relaxing night with your boys! You will def have to share a pick of Rocky walking with your hubs on the bike! lol

ReplyDeleteAww, I love trips down memory lane. I think I might have to do a post like this soon! SO cool that you saw them filming Adjustment Bureau! That's one of my favorite scenes from the movie.
ReplyDeleteGeez, you'd think it would be hard for them to film all these movies in the middle of big cities when all everyone wants to do is take pictures, haha. NYC is fun to visit but I just don't think I could ever live there! You all had a beautiful view of the city :)
I absolutely love NYC too. I have been there a couple times and still don't think I saw everything.
ReplyDeletei went there on my senior trip in highschool....ummm i loved it.. its very fast paced.. and the pizza was amazing and i piece was like the size of my head..its true what they say.. its the city that never sleeps!!!!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love NYC! You always see something great on the streets. I'm dying to see a picture of your man holding your pup while riding a bike! That just sounds too cute. I've been wanting to check out this movie too. Happy Thursday!
ReplyDeleteI want to go to NYC so bad! Especially around Christmas time! And loooove Matt Damon! His tush looks good in those pictures!

That is so awesome!!! I have never actually seen a movie/TV show being filmed. And of course you see Matt Damon..so cool :)
ReplyDeleteOMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE NYC TOO!!! It is one of my all time favorite places. If I was rish or had an amazing job offer, I would totally move there. It is an incredible city :)
Very cool! I would love to stumble across a movie being filmed!
ReplyDeleteAnd you must get a pic of Billy holding the dog on the bike! I can just picture it in my head and it's freaking adorable!
Thats so cool that you saw the movie being filmed!!
ReplyDeletei LOVE nyc. i used to be a flight attendant and would trade trips to be able to fly there. it just has so much energy..that's cliche i know, but so true
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool that you got to see them filming that movie! Right place at the right time. What I love most about NYC is The bridge in Central Park because that is where Jeremy proposed to me. I was facing The Plaza and it was just perfection. I also love the restaurant Rosa Mexicano. I remember they had the freshest margaritas and made guacamole at your table to which they added pomegranate seeds. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love NYC!!! Especially at Christmastime... and especially Central Park!
ReplyDeleteThat's crazy you saw Matt and Emily! Gotta keep that celeb radar on whenever you go to the city... Last time I went, I got Letterman tickets for free on the street for answering a trivia question. Never a dull NYC minute! :)
You got great pics of Matt :) I love NYC, my family lives there and we go every X- mas ... Rick and I went in the Fall last yr and during X-mas when they had that huge storm ...my fav thing has gotta be soho or central park ...love that city!
ReplyDeleteYou and your husband (and Rocky!) are quite the athletic family!
ReplyDeleteGreat paparazzi pictures of Matt Damon and Emily Blunt!! :) You are so lucky you got to see them film. I bet watching the movie was super neat too!
I love the energy of NYC. Whenever I am there, I just feel so alive and excited!
Sounds like a fun night!! I love going to Central Park-typical tourist place but I am a HUGE Law and Order fan so it is fun being where it is filmed :) Never ran into them though-lucky you!!!
ReplyDeletethat is so exciting! i bet you remembered that scene. great pictures, he looks short! she of course, is tiny. fun, fun!
ReplyDeleteI've been to NYC once, and I'm dying to go back! I haven't seen the Adjustment Bureau but it seems similar to the Bourne Series, and I'm in love with those movies! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got to take a break with your boys last night! ;) Pleeeease get a pic of your hubby holding Rocky!!!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome to have seen live footage from the Adjustment Bureau!! LOVED that movie!! and I love NYC too!! my BFF just moved there!!
Looks like a fun bachelorette party! I love NY too. Shows, food, tons of people. . . so much to do and I really need to get back there soon!
ReplyDeletei freaking loved this movie! just another reason we are like soul bff's, i am like a hard core celeb stalker! i am SOO Jealous of those up close pics! too cool!
ReplyDeletei've never been to NYC (i know, i feel sad for me too) BUT WHEN I go, i am dying to see Regis and Kelly!!!
How cool! I've only been to NYC twice but it is so much fun. We went at Christmas a couple of years ago and it was breathtaking.
ReplyDeletedo i see gray hairs on matt's head?!
ReplyDeletehes a doll no matter what!
I love, love NYC even though I've only been there once. I absolutely cannot wait to go back. My favorite parts were the Literary Walk in Central Park and we waited until the evening to go to the Empire State Building b/c we heard the wait time was less then. We still had to wait just a little while but the view of the entire city lit up at night was amazing!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I'm the one who e-mailed you a couple wks ago thanking you for the inspiration to restart my blog so I'm working on it...:)
I've NEVER been to NY and YOU LUCKY DUCK YOU that you got see breathe sniff the air around Matt Daemon! HOLLER!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cute that your husband carries your puppy with you all when you go out on bikes. Your dog must have the most content and happy face while riding along in his arms on the bike. Please do take the picture and share. :)
