Our adventure began when we were married in 2007. NYC wasn’t on our radar. We had visited NYC before, but only crazy people lived there. As fate would have it, though, in 2009 we became the crazy people when we moved here to work with a church in Manhattan.

Additionally, we’ve found ourselves raising two full blooded New Yorkers who aren’t impressed by big buildings and aren’t intimidated by large crowds (quite different than how their parents grew up). They’ve known nothing other than busy streets, crazy cab rides, and crowded subway cars since before they were born.
