I thought I better finally add something to my blog about my New York trip. I had a great time and thankfully had lots of energy to keep up with all of our planned activities. Maybe those who do read my blog have seen all the pictures on Facebook but I am putting some out here anyway.
I got to have a girl trip with my sister, my mom and my aunt to go visit my cousin and do all the tourist-y New York things we could do :)
Molly asked me who drives the plane so when we got off in NY, I asked the pilot if I could take a picture with him to show my girls! He was so nice and I even got to sit in the cockpit! I tried to document all kinds of things for the girls, from the plane I was on to the type of tour bus we rode on to the boat we took our sight seeing cruise on. It was fun taking all the pictures of things I thought they would enjoy.
We got to enjoy some New York style pizza! I could have eaten at least a slice a day while I was there! So Yummy!
One of Molly and Gracie's souvenir's was a wall hanging of their name done all fancy. I had these done in Chinatown. Sydney already has one, so i thought it would be cool if the other girls had one too. It only took this guy about 10 minutes to do both of their names.
Me at Rockefeller Center! Sorry you have to look at me in the pic :)
Checking out the huge binoculars at The Top of the Rock. What a gorgeous view of the city!
The Empire State Building!
Another great view from The Top of the Rock.
The Freedom Tower, now at Ground Zero. Also now known as World Trade Center 1. I couldn't get enough pictures of this, it is just beautiful!
Me and my sis on our little tourist cruise, we had beautiful views of the city skylines and buildings from the water! And of course, The Statue of Liberty in the background.
All of us on our nice cruise. Even though my cousin lives in NY now he did a great job of being our tour guide and being a tourist right along with the rest of us!
This, of course, is the perfect end to my trip. What was waiting for me when I got off the plane! My wonderful family with homemade signs! It was a great weekend but there is no place I would rather be than with Barry and my girls :)
