guess what? we love you and miss you a lot!!! Here are a few things about our past week:
-Thursday: we went for a walk to Poland. We found a cheap store for our milk. That is a few blocks away and it's in a Polish neighborhood. We liked discovering what's near our house. We are a nice walk away from a dock that lets you have a full view of Manhattan and its high skyscrapers.
-Friday: a new movie came out and Serena wanted to see it for a long time. So Mat surprised her and took her to a theatre in Manhattan to watch "The hunger games" as their date for the week. It was an awesome movie!!! Mat fell in love with it and can't wait to see the next sequel, that's why he's going to buy the books and read them!
After, we went to Central Park to visit the Belvedere Castle and have a picnic by a pond with many paddle boats in it.
It was a warm beautiful day and it was fun to see many weddings taking place right by where we had our picnic in Central Park. We ended the day with a wonderful temple session where President Garff (the Manhattan temple president) asked us if we could be temple workers without realizing that we were only here for a few more weeks. He said that he enjoys seeing us in the temple each week and called us "the couple in love" :) and encouraged us to continue acting like newlyweds the rest our our lives.
-Saturday: Serena is like her dad. She loves nature, trees and flowers. She knew the magnolia trees would be blooming this week and it was urgent to have another visit at the Brooklyn botanic garden on saturday. It was beautiful and the colors were magnificent!
Saw this fun store near the exit of the Gardens! :) Unfortunately we didn't have time to shop there, too bad!
Then we went to the beach but realized on our way there that it was not a good idea since it was cold outside. We just wanted to check if it would be a good place to take our friends (Shauna Dennis and Erica Zaine) who are coming in a week!!! WOOHOO!!! We went as far as the subway would take us. we could see out the windows that it wasn't a very nice area. So once we got to the end of the line, we caught the next homeward bound train. It was a fun ride though with some dude who decided to take a nap.
-Sunday: Elder Jeffery E. Olson, a member of the Seventy, attended our district conference where they announced that our branch would now be a part of a stake rather than a district. It will bring a lot of new members into our branch and we've enjoyed making new friends at church and becoming a part of the choir.
That is our news. We hope you have a great week and we wish a happy birthday to Noa (Mat's niece) who's turning 7 on wednesday.
We love you,
Serena and Mat Peltzer.
