NYC!!!



This is Fletcher, not so happy when he found out he could not ride the ferris wheel :(
*Click on the pictures to see better!*

M&M store--super crowded...we lost Hudson (he was outside buying a fake Rolex from a guy on the street!)

Middle of Times Square!



Our hotel is the black and gold tall building on the left. Not sure if that is the Empire State Bldg on right.
Chillin in the hotel.


For our Spring Break we decided to take the kids to NYC for a couple of days. We had a fantastic time. We left at 6am Friday morning and arrived in NYC at 12:30pm. (We stopped for a long breakfast.) We checked into the Bryant Park Hotel and then went out to see the sights! Right across the street was Bryant Park. It had a carousel and big grassy area, restaurants and lots of park benches. We were only a few blocks away from Times Square, so that's where we headed first. The kids were really excited to see Toys R Us with the ferris wheel inside it. They also have a life-size Barbie house, and just so much it is hard to believe!!! We were all ready for lunch so we went and ate at ESPNZone. Then Bailey and I went and got in a VERY long line for Broadway show tickets. It took us about an hour, and we ended up with tickets to see "The Fantasticks!" at 8pm. Just the girls went and we really loved it. It was a small theater so we were very close. The music was wonderful and the story was cute and silly. The girls even met the main actors afterwards and got their autograph! While the girls were at the show, Hudson's uncle picked him up and took him around town, then he stayed with them at their apartment.
We met up with the uncle and his girlfriend the next day and they took us shopping in SoHo. The girlfriend works for Diesel, so we went to one of their stores--55DSL. She gets an amazing discount, so Hudson got some awesome t-shirts. Then we went to their apartment. It was fun, and the kids loved seeing it. I think seeing the Uncle and girlfriend was the highlight of their trip. (It has been such a long time since they've seen him.) We left NYC at 6pm on Saturday and pulled up to our house at 10:45pm. Oh--and the weather was beautiful!!!
