New York for the Weekend

Okay, it was a long weekend and it was my birthday, yep-the big 3-0! RJ surprised me with a trip for the two of us to New York. It was wonderful. We almost didn't go because we are in the final stages of our new house remodeling and everything was becoming "too much". But-- we did and had a great time. We've been to New York many times but this time we actually did the double decker tour bus. Of course we also ate, ate and ate some more!

the famous frozen hot chocolate


LOL... RJ enjoying our carmel and hot fudge sundae. Can I say I'm still having dreams about how great this was! Keep scrolling down to see if we liked it.

Oh yeah, we shouldn't have but we did!

Our beautiful hotel- Waldorf. Our favorite place to stay.

They were filming Men in Black 3 while we are walking around the Financial District

Yep, that little statue in the background is the Statue of Liberty. We both had already seen it previously so we didn't wait in the long line.

A special thanks to my parents for driving in to keep little C and holding down the fort on the new house construction! And for RJ's mom for helping too!
