Our First Trip Away

So we did it. finally left our babies for the first time. We did 1 night and 2 full days in NY primarily to go and see "Newsies" on Broadway. A total dream come true for me. Thankful for this man of mine who never hesitates with the suggestion of an adventure. We had perfect weather and tons of fun! 

 on the plane

 a good read

 and there we are. didn't even notice the reflection of us holding hands until afterwards...awwww

Washington Park and the "Mad About You" apartment facade. Be still my heart.

 Top of the Empire State Building. I stood here 11 years ago, August 2001, with a very different view.

 we upgraded

 Excited!!!

 I finally tasted the infamous "Virgil's"

 of course we had to Skype with our babies or else we would miss them too too too much.

 A little Central Park Dining

Only bad part about it being such a quick trip...we were tired.

NY pigeons. We sent this picture to Bean and asked her if we should "squonk them in their heads"

Central Park tourists and not ahsamed
