NYC...through my iPhone

I don't have all the pictures from my latest trip to New York, but I had to at least post these from my phone. It was my favorite trip to date. I'm always so amazed how God works things like that out. It is not easy for a mother of two to go on a trip like this, but thanks to my mom and Dane, husband, and sweet Caroline (babysitter), it was possible! Not to mention my sweet dad that financed the whole thing.  I absolutely love to travel with him for a number of reasons, one of which being that he is a pro in the airport (and let me just say, that was pretty important this trip) not to mention that we just have a lot of fun together, which I think is really special. Having a few days with him and my sister with no distractions (i.e. children) was nice, too. Alye and Olin put a lot of effort in to making sure that every thing was perfect, and they succeeded!  I am so proud of my sister and the person that she has become.  To this day every time I see New York City I can't believe that she lives there.  She is a person that I really admire and respect... living that far away from home in such a huge city is something I could never do.  It's a big accomplishment for anyone, but especially for a little girl that used to cry every time her daddy's truck was out of her sight.

It all started with a special chauffeur from the airport...
Olin surprised us at the airport in their new car!
Then Saturday we all went to our first Yankees game!  So much fun!

Next was my first visit to Alye and Olin's apartment in Brooklyn...

Sunday we shopped in Soho...
Sunday dinner at Prune...no I did not try the bone marrow...


Such a wonderful time!  Thank you all so much!
