One night Maury and I went to my parents house to hang out and drink some wine. While we were there, my mom told me of this idea she had..."I think we should go to New York!" she said. Of course I agreed and we got on our laptops and started looking at flights and hotels. Maury and my dad were sitting in the other room, wondering what we were up to, because of the big smiles on our face! We clued them in, and they thought we were crazy!! We told them they didn't have to go and surprisingly that made them both say, "Okay, as long as we don't have to go!"
We booked our tickets, found a room, packed our bags and were on a flight less than 2 weeks later!! Talk about spontaneous!! Going to New York with just my mom was truly the trip of a lifetime. We shopped until we had blisters (and then some more), ate whatever we wanted, tried to find celebrities, and just had plain FUN! Thanks for such a great time momma and thanks Dad and Maury for letting us go :) Here are some of my favorite pictures from the trip!!
