Our last full day in New York was spent in the city. We went to the New York Knicks game, and my uncle had arranged to have the company suite. It was so awesome! We arrived a little passed tip-off, but had a super time at the game. The boys brought friends along, there was food galore, and everyone was having a blast. The only bad part was the Knicks did not pull off a win - gave it a good attempt and came back the last quarter, but couldn't pull it off!
We were all excited because Spike Lee was there as well as Kris Rock, the comedian. We were in the suite, therefore we were up higher, but I have to say we had the best view of everything! It was an excellent experience and we can't thank Dennis enough!
Everyone was a little tired after that so we all returned to the Deutmeyer house. It was nice to sit and talk with Connie for a few hours about life etc. The evening ended with the guys (Wayne, Dennis, and Nate) taking on the ladies (Kim, Connie, and Kirstin) in a couple rounds of euchre. It was decided to play the best 2 out of 3 - ladies then declared winners as they won 2 of them. The guys couldn't handle the loss and wanted to play a 4th round, which they came back to win so I guess it was a great way to end the night with a split.....even though we, the ladies, were declared winners in the first place!!!! Fun night for sure!!!!

Sunday was our last day in NY. Wayne went golfing one last time with Dennis, James had a track meet (which his team placed first in the 4 x 200 (Yeah James!), the rest of us hung out and prepared for the trip home. I forgot to mention that we also had some time to watch my cousin William play basketball.....he's a great player and did super! I had to enclose a picture of him.....he can jump!!!! Way to go Will!

Monday it was back to reality...all of us dragging tired but it was worth it!!!! We made more wonderful memories. Kirstin returns to Iowa in 2 weeks from today. Wayne will fly back out and then drive home with her in time for her to go to graduation. When we were discussing it with my extended family, my uncle Dennis said that he didn't think Kirstin's lease was up and that she was to stay longer......that put a big smile on Kirstin's face....I can tell she is loving it there! Thanks so much Dennis, Connie, and boys! You are the best!
