I just got back from an amazing trip to New York with my sis-in-laws Amy and Reta and our friend Leanne. So much fun!! Aside from a little morning sickness (and being at the end of my first trimester... the crappiest state of pregnancy: starting to show, breakouts, weight gain, fatigue) it couldn't have been a better trip! 5 days was a perfect amount of time to visit! In my next life, I will move there!
Amy's parents hooked us up with a room a the Hilton right on Times Square! We love you Pugmires!!
Hard Rock
Our shopping playground...
I passed by the most amazing dance studio I want to come back to next time. It's located at the bottom of the Empire State Building.
We saw "In the Heights" this years Tony Award winner and loved it! It was so different and had an amazing cast!
We were able to go to the temple. Such a neat experience!
I went to visit Jess. She moved there last year. Soooo jealous! She showed us the hot spots of shopping! (Jess is the one who got me a Freddy together!)
We went to an awesome spa! So nice after tons of walking!
Our day at Central Park. We actual were in NY during the hottest heat wave they'd had in a long time! So it wasn't a total "walk in the park..." Ok, bad joke...
We went on a train to visit Leanne's in-laws close to Carmel. We boarded it at Grand Central Station.
We could have spent all day, even all weekend, in Macy's! Huge!
After 9/11, people would put up photos of their loved ones lost during the disaster. Children at local schools created tiles to replace those who were not found.
Ground Zero. Not much to look at. I was disappointed there wasn't more of a museum or a place to get more information on what they were building.
Rockefeller Center
An amazing little bakery called Magnolia Bakery. Yummy cupcakes and insane banana pudding!
Basically, my position at the end of each day! Can't wait to go again!!!!
Tre did this all on his own. He was making me laugh so hard I couldn't breathe! He was just walking around going, "Rarrrr, Rarrr!" It just took me back to my generation of Beavis and Butthead. Sad that that's "my generation." The 60's had Woodstook, the 70's had disco, the 80's had big hair, but no, no... we had Cornholio who needs TP for his bunghole. Good times, good times...
So Daddy is out of town and had to miss Brooke's birthday, but we took her to Disneyland before he left and splurged her with Ariel gifts. (Little Mermaids her favorite right now. My parents got her the sweet T she's got on.) So last night I made cupcakes and just had a few friends over. It was sweet and simple. I love you, B! I love the way you tip-toe everywhere and say silly things in your munchkin voice! You're my girl...
