NYC!!!

Ok, finally I am going to put up pictures about our awesome trip to NYC! The idea was to go visit Kirk's parents in Connecticut for some much needed R/R. We invited a couple of our close friends to join us. Once we realized how close everything thing is up north, the ideas started flowing. We decided to make the most of our much needed vacation and visit everything we could possibly fit under the sun! Melissa & Charlie Udy, Brian & Lori Munoz and us flew into Providence, RI and Kirk's wonderful parents picked us up drove us back to their place via the beach. It was completly dark but still fun to see. The next two days we spent in NYC. We took the train and got to spend the night in a hotel, which cost a fortune, by the way, in Manhattan. Some of the sights we saw were the Statue of Liberty, Time Square, China Town, Little Italy, Cental Park, Musem of Natural History (though we didnt go in cause it was closed), and Phantom of the Opera on Broadway. It was SO MUCH FUN!!!! The next day, we went to the spanish branch with Kirk's mom. She is the Stake Primary President and the spanish branch was having the primary presentation. It was so cute! Then we went to the beach (during daylight this time). We were the typical tourists taking so many pictures! PS - that is why it took me so long to get this post up cause I had to sift though all 700 pictures! Ok, so then Brian & Lori had to go home (*tear*). The rest of us packed up and went to Boston. First we stopped at Plymouth Rock, which we didnt even see cause it was raining, but we did see the Mayflower II. Then in Boston, we saw the Minute Men trail in Lexington/Concord, The Boston Temple and the Freedom Trail with this awesome tour guide dressed up like James Otis. We decided we learned more about history from the 90 minute tour than we ever did in our whole life! The last couple of days were spent relaxing. We went shopping one day and ate at a mom & pop soda shop that Kirk likes and took his parents out to a nice dinner for putting up with us all week. Sadly the day came where we had to go home. It was a good trip but frankly, I was ready to get back to my little puppy! Thanks so much to the Heaths for watching her!!! Ya'll are the best!!! :)
