NEW YORK CITY

**I cannot get the formatting right for some reason, sorry!!**

For my graduation, I asked for a trip to NYC!! My parents and grandparents decided to make my wish come true...New York is one of my most favorite places to visit. My friend Fowler's birthday was the same day as my graduation, so for her birthday she asked for a trip to NYC. Luckily, we were all able to work things out and make it into a trip for the 5 of us! It was definitely a trip to remember. Here are some of our memories.....

Taking off....

so much jewelry....

our $5 Ray Bans and Christian Dior sunglasses :)

I love this picture of my mama and me

My friend/fowlers cousin Paige.. who now lives in NYC

She took us to a delicious bbq restaurant

Fowler, me, and the Empire State Building

We were already worn out after the first day...

these walls were in honor of the firemen killed in 9/11

It rained the entire time, but we were troopers and didnt let it stop us!
This piano was so much fun... BUT it smelled like stinky feet.

Our hotel... (just kidding)
Seeing our first celebrity.. Josh Gomez.. We had no idea who he was, but it was neat to see the paparrazi surrounding him.

We are Mama's girls...

This screen overlooked times square.. You can see us in the far right!
Our $80 shirts we got for $9 from Anthropologie.. We love good deals!

This was the neatest restaurant.. Ellens Stardust Diner.. They bring the food while singing, and put on a show the entire time.

We HAD to visit the DASH store.. Since we have seen it on tv. We could not afford ANYTHING in there... but we wanted to say we have been there.

Sitting in Anthropologie resting our feet!
Waiting for the Subway.

We ate at a DELICIOUS chocolate restaurant called Max Brenner. I highly recommend it to anyone that visits NYC. This was Mimis dessert.

Mrs. Lisa's and Fowlers dessert

Mamas apple cinnamon dessert

My smores dessert

Visiting Paiges apartment.

The garden outside her apartment.

At Serendipity restaurant.. This restaurant was in the movie "Serendipity" and is famous for their frozen hot chocolate!

Their menus were huge.

This show was absolutely AMAZING!!! I caught myself smiling the entire time!!
Buying our Lion King shirts at the show.
We ran into one of my good friends (from Albany) at the show..
This was baby Simba and Nala :) They were so cute and did such a good job!
In the New York airport, we ran into Wynonna Judd.. She was SO sweet and SO funny!! This was one of the most exciting parts of the trip! We were determined to meet a celebrity!
Heading home...

Since I've moved back....

My brother wanted to take me fishing.. I caught the first fish on my first cast :)

He was ready to leave, so I told him I was going to cast it one LAST time, and caught my 2nd fish, BEATING him!

He only caught one ;)

My brothers graduation from high-school!

SO proud of him!

I got to see an old friend, Danielle, at his graduation

The next day we had a graduation party for me and my brother.
