Oh, what a weekend! James & I had so much fun on our short anniversary trip to New York City! The fun started when we arrived at the Salt Lake Airport to catch our plane and I realized that we didn't have a stroller or carseat or two little munchkins to chase around the airport. Now, you all know how much I love my boys, but it sure was relaxing to just travel and spend the weekend with my wonderful husband! :) When we arrived at LaGuardia Airport in New York, James had surprised me with a personal driver to take us to our hotel. Then when we got to our hotel room, they had delivered flowers to me along with chocolate-dipped strawberries from my sweetheart. I'm the luckiest girl in the world!

We enjoyed many activities while we hung out in the Big Apple! We saw two musicals on Broadway, including Mary Poppins & West Side Story. I personally liked Mary Poppins better. It was awesome! The sets were amazing and the actors were great! We also were able to visit the top of the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, Times Square, Little Italy, SoHo, New York Stock Exchange... and lots of great stores and neighborhoods. It was fabulous to see so much culture & so many different types of people. It was so much fun to spend the weekend with my sister & her husband, and my brother & his wife... and especially with my hubby.

A big giant thanks to my parents & nieces for watching our boys for the weekend. I'm glad they were so good for you. Love you!
