Day in NYC

My Mom and I took Trey, Bella and Evan to New York City today! It was a lot of fun!

After missing our train due to traffic, and poor planning on our part (stopping at Dunkin Donuts on the way to the train station), we had to take a later train that was not an express train. Thus, we ended up getting to NYC a bit later then we expected!

First, we walked to Build A Bear (Bella's pick), where each of the kids got an animal, with accessories, of course! Both Trey and Bella chose a "Hot Dog" Dog! Bella dressed hers in a robe and slippers, while Trey chose a soccer outfit.

Next up was lunch at a pizza place with gelato for dessert. Since it was already so late, we didn't have time to go to the other stores as we had hoped. We had to go directly to the theatre and we barely made it! We saw Mary Poppins, which was very good! It was a bit different from the movie version, which confused Bella a bit, but it was still a great show!

After the show, we took a taxi to FAO Swartz (Evan's pick), where Bella chose yet another stuffed animal and Trey chose a Light Saber Room Light. Trey especially, is very excited about his room light, and has even agreed that we can now leave the hallway light off at night!

Then it was time to go to the store that Trey chose - the Lego Store! The boys each chose something there!

We had dinner at the train station while waiting for our train since the first one was cancelled. It was a long day, and we didn't get home until 10:45 pm, but we had a lot of fun! We can't wait to do it again next year!
