I Heart New York

Daniel and I had only been home from Disney for a week and a half before we turned around and jet-setted again, this time to New York! Daniel was working and I got to tag along (first class!). It turns out my parents were also there at the same time! Daniel's co-worker Nick and his fiancee Katie also came, so I hung out with Katie on Wednesday. We braved the drizzle and walked to FAO Schwartz and then took a cab home since it had started pouring. And we practically swam to dinner with the guys later. Ugh! I spent Thursday and Friday with my mom, and it was much better, weather-wise. Cold, but I was fine with a good coat and good pair of comfy boots. She and I saw the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall, then did some shopping and even saw a segment of The Today Show being filmed at 30 Rock (Melissa Gilbert was being interviewed by Kathie Lee and Hoda...you can kind of see my mom in the background but can't really see me). We went out with Daniel and my dad for dinner that night, then she and I went to the Museum of Modern Art on Friday. It was so fun being there during Christmastime and we had a blast!!! And huge thanks to Grandpa and Nanna for coming to stay with the kids while we were gone :)
