New York!!
Me, and my sisters, Nikki, Lesa, Carrie & my Mom & Dad headed to New York to surprise my sister Tracie. She moved out there in October and had been living in an apartment and had just bought a house. So we decided to go out and help her. Dave new we were all coming, but Tracie only thought my mom & dad were coming. She did wonder a few times during the week before and then figured it out the night we were showing up because a cousin on Facebook asked her if we were there yet. Opps. Anyway, it was fun. We got there Thursday night to her apartment in White Plains, NY. Friday, we packed up the apartment, and loaded 3 cars,(there was not one inch not filled. We headed for their new house in New Milford, CT. The house was left pretty dirty so we started the cleaning while they signed the papers. Friday night was spent cleaning so the moving company could move it all in on Saturday. Friday night we stayed in a bed and breakfast close to their new home. Saturday we spent the day unboxing, cleaning some more and putting things away. Then we headed to Dinner and shopping at the mall.
Sunday, we headed to their church, about 20 mins away. We skipped out after sacrament meeting back to the house. We changed and headed to see NYC. Nikki, Lesa, Carrie & Dad rode the train and subway into the city from White Plains. Me, Mom, Dave, Tracie, the twins and Taylor drove in the van. We made our first stop at the Statue of Liberty were we waiting for the girls & dad who had a little trouble-subway style. We say the "Bull" by Wall Street, then Lesa, Nikki, Carrie & I rode the subway to Cannal Street, or as Carrie would call it, Channel street. There we did some major "Knock-off" shopping. The others, drove to Times Square, went and drove my the temple, while taking care of the kidos. After shopping, Carrie, Nikki, Lesa and I hopped on the subway to Times Square. They we headed back to White Plains on the subway and train. Monday, we hung out at the house before leaving for home. Thanks to Dave, Tracie, Taylor and the twins for putting up with us. Hopefully, we were more a help, than a hinder.
These are the only pics I took. Hopefully my sisters and parents will post so I can steal some of their pics.
