So yesterday we were up bright and early braving the New Jersey drivers and catching the ferry out to see Ellis Island and then the Statue of Liberty. She really is larger than I thought - unlike Mount Rushmore which I thought would be bigger.
It started raining buckets on us - and us with our umbrellas back in the car in New Jersey - we are truly brilliant people *giggles*
All Rob has talked about since we got to NYC was going to Carnegie Deli. If any of you are foodies and watch the Food Network, this place has been on there bunches of time. So we went there for dinner last night. The portion sizes are insane. K's Muenster sammie had as much cheese as you get in the Finlandia package at Costco. Madness - but ohhh soo good!
Here's me in a NYC taxi - ha. I wasn't going to show y'all any pictures of me because I'm a fattie, but, what the heck, I am who I am - - I ain't too proud to be fat *wink*
And yes, we went to Tiffany. And yes, I completely spoiled my daughter. But hey - you only live once and who knows when we'll ever make it back to NYC, right? I bought her her first Tiffany & Co. necklace....and some other things. And got myself some perfume.
We're in Washington, DC today celebrating the 4th.

I so want to be your daughter (but I'm a little bit old!!) Great pics, looks like you're having a wonderful time, even if you are getting wet ;)
I hope to get back to NYC soon..
OH Michelle! So glad ya'll are having so much fun! You must show us her necklace later! Now I really want to go to NYC. I love your pic of the Statue of Liberty!
The picture of you in the cab....that's pretty much how I look all the time riding in a car with anyone else driving, hence the "very little traveling" policy! Your daughter looks so excited setting there with the Tiffany packages :)
And, yes, my blog is having an identity crisis.
Enjoy your 4th today!!!
Despite the rain it sounds like a great time. I hope you threatened K w/something scary if she ever loses any of her Tiffany purchases. ;) Glad your trip is so great. The kids will have so many stories to tell at dinner in the college cafeteria. LOL
Looks like you guys are having tons of fun!!!! Well continue to have tons more of fun!!!! Happy 4th!!!
GREAT pictures! Looks like a wonderful trip! Lucky girl, K, is!
WOW! K is one lucky little girl! I'm glad you guys are having so much fun and you still have a week to go! Thanks for sharing the pics. I love them!
I am so applying to be your daughter LOL... Your trip sounds like so much fun. Being a total foodie you know I am more jealous about the deli than tiffanys. :)
Seems like a fun holiday (minus the rain)! NYC is such a fun place, one of my favorite things about living in NJ is the ability to get on a train and spend the day there any time I want. It's also the perfect place to treat yourself to shopping and great food!
so were you scared??
LOVE all the boxes...and your girl is gorgeous...watch out when she turns 16!
