Our NY City Trip

We had a blast on our trip to the big city. It was a fairly warm day, even though it was misty and rainy the whole time. My pictures are backwards but here we are on the double decker bus at the end of our day (after being drenched for most of the day and finally drying off!)

Here are Jay and the kids sporting our rain ponchos! It was misty and bearable then all of a sudden it started to pour on us! The kids hid in the stroller and we covered it with another poncho! This happened while on Liberty island, where there is no shelter whatsoever! 









The First ever Macy's building and the site of the twin towers.



The Empire state building, it was so foggy you couldn't see all the way up
The start of our day, see all smiles from start to finish. Now anytime the kids see NY on the tv or anything they shout, "we went there, we were there!" It really made for some great memories!

What a fun filled day. You forget to mention that you did it ALL in one day. That is a feat worthy of recognition. We're in Chi town now and loving it. My sis and BIL are at work so we're stuck here playing in their house all day. Poor sad us, right? Hardly. We miss you guys!

Looks like a good visit overall. I'm glad you got down there! We've been in Boston for almost 9 years and I still haven't been down to the Big Apple. It seems scarier than Boston for some reason... Maybe we can hire you as tour guides! : )

Dominick and Payton are getting so big. I can't wait to see you guys. Hopefully it will be soon. It looks like you guys have done a lot of fun stuff with Jay's mom. Is she living with you guys? Love ya, Stacey

NYC is so much fun, and it looks like you guys had a blast. Not sure if you went, but Canal St in SOHO is where you can find all the goof stuff. Tiffany jewlery, handbags, and sunglasses. (your intro says you like to shop...)
