New York, New York!!

It's been pretty crazy around here lately, so I forgot to update my blog. Here are a few pictures from New York. It was an awesome trip! We had a great time. I was pretty tired by the time I got home, but it was worth it. Now we are getting ready for Thanksgiving. I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!

These pictures were taken at the Today show. We all had matching sweatshirts and signs. Most of us actually got on TV because we were in a really good spot. Elijah Wood was on the show that day and he walked right by us. It was pretty cool. The hosts (Meredith, Matt and Al) each came over at different times and took pictures with our group. We had to get up super early to get there, but we had fun!




On Saturday, Nicole and I toured lower Manhattan. We took a ferry to Staten Island that went right by the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. You can't go to New York and not see the Statue of Liberty. That's just crazy! :)



On Thursday night, we went to see Wicked. It is a broadway play about the Wicked Witch of the West and how she became wicked. It was sooooooo awesome!! We bought the soundtrack, and have listened to it many times. I have seen a few broadway plays, but this one is definitely my favorite. All of the girls dolled up to go to broadway, so we had to take some pictures. On Friday, Nicole and I went back to broadway to see The Grinch Who Stole Christmas. We really liked it, but Wicked was definitely the best!




One of my favorite parts about New York was just walking the streets. There are so many fun things to see there that you could miss them if you weren't paying attention. Radio City Music Hall is not far from Rockefeller Center and Times Square. These blocks were decorated with lights and Christmas trees. The big tree at the Rockefeller Center had not been lit yet, but it was fun to see it up anyway.



Have a Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
