A Trip to NYC

Checking on Laurel the moment we landed! Trey and I met my sister Ann and her husband Andrew at Ann's church.
John, JB, Rebecca, Heather and I stand just outside the Tavern on the Green, where we had dinner before going to see the play, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
Our friends, JB and Rebecca, on a walk through Central Park. John and Heather enjoyed a stop in front of a pretty lake in Central Park.
On our first night, we ate dinner at BLT Prime, a wonderful restaurant, and even spotted Derek Jeter!
Our crew, minus the photographer Trey, smile for the camera after seeing our second show on Broadway. We all loved the musical Wicked.
Trey and I had such a fun vacation with our good friends!


Trey and I are lucky to have such great friends. We travel with two couples each year, Heather and John and Rebecca and JB. This year was our third trip together, and Trey's and my first time to leave Laurel for several days. Trey's parents were so sweet to keep her and let us enjoy our trip.
We had an action-packed trip, as usual. We toured Rockefeller Center, walked through Central Park, visited the Museum of Natural History, checked out the NYSE and the Statue of Liberty, caught a comedy show, saw two great Broadway shows, and ate some really fantastic dinners. While we were there, Trey and I were able to rendezvous with my sister, Ann, and her husband, Andrew. Ann is working at St. James Episcopal Church for two years and is having a great time experiencing big city life with Andrew. We ate lunch with them and got to see their apartment. It was a short visit, but we loved seeing them.
We had such a great time with our good friends, and can't wait for another fun trip together next year! Thanks, Ron and Betsy, for keeping Laurel for us!

I didn't remember you got to do so many things while in NYC! What fun--and what a cute travel wardrobe you had!
