Mom and I at Good Morning America's concert in Central Park. We were able to see this past season's American Idol top 12. Super fun!




I had to go into the American Girl store. The mom in me couldn't pass that up. I took this picture of front of Lanie to show my Katelyn. She has Lanie and LOVES her!!

Us in Times Square at night. One crazy busy place!!!

In front of the Today show set.

We had to check out Macys. It was unbelievably huge!!

The night we saw "Wicked." Wow, it was awesome.

The night we saw "Promises Promises."


I think "Mama Mia" was our personal favorite. It was hilarious and the music was awesome. Loved it!!

In front of our hotel before we left for home. We loved our hotel and the location was ideal--right in the middle of Times Square.
In July, my mom took me on the most amazing trip to New York City. It was my 30th birthday present--a year later. We had the absolute best time, and I will never ever forget it!! It was so much fun to have 5 uninterupted days with my sweet mom. We stayed crazy busy and tried to see and do it all. We would get up each morning pretty early to either go to Regis and Kelly, the Today show, or Good Morning America. We would go go go all day long sightseeing and finsih each day off with a nice dinner and a Broadway show. We would crash at night!! It was such a fun memory filled trip. Thank you mom for the trip of a lifetime!!
