Memories from the Big Apple


This may be my favorite picture from my recent trip to New York City with my sister. Oh my goodness we had so much fun going to Blogher!!

The night this picture was taken we were standing in line outside a swanky New York building waiting to get into this very fancy party. Which is just a perfect example of how our whole trip went. It was a very surreal how we were treated like celebrities at every event we attended. We got given so many goodies we each actually mailed a box home to ourselves full of our swag.

We met celebrities such as Bruce Jenner and one of my faves the Sun from the Hillshire Farms commercials. Both guys were super nice! That poor sun wore that costume for at least eight hours!

While we were in NYC we got to do tons of shopping and take in the sites like Time Square and Central Park. What a lovely oasis that is in that huge city! One of my very favorite things we did was take in a Broadway show seeing Mary Poppins. Wow that was a great show if it comes through Seattle I will definitely be taking the girls (and Jordan too if he wants to go!)

Now back to my regularly scheduled life. We are in the works of wrapping up our summer. The weather is already cooling down here quite a bit and we are shopping for back to school supplies. The girls Open House for their school is August 30th and then we will all be busy as I am the Vice President of PTA this year I have lots to do as well.

Sending prayers that all the kids have a fabulous school year this year (and the parents too)!
