GO GIANTS!!
Ok, I admit it. I've never intentionally watched a giants' game until the super bowl but what a game. Although we knew they would be victorious. You see, Josh and I have this affect on the teams in our home state. The luck follows our moves across the US: Northwestern football team goes to Rose Bowl, Chicago Bulls pull off a 6-peat, Astros were division champs, U of M goes to Rose Bowl, UT wins National Championship, Clemson women's soccer were in final 8, and now this. I mean, it's just embarassing that we have that much influence. So we decided to pay homage and go to the ticker tape parade in lower manhattan today. This is a picture of ground level--a little too crowded for our tastes.


So we went up to the roof of Josh's building and leaned over. You can see Trinity church in the background. This is the intersection of Wall St and Broadway. People were throwing entire reams of paper out of their windows. The city supplies ticker tape to companies along the parade route but apparently that doesn't make a big enough mess! It was really cool to see.

The picture below is to prove that Josh really was there. Tivon looks silly because I was trying to get him to look at the camera by putting his horse by it. I guess he's looking that way but clearly has no intention of smiling until he has horse in hand again.
