NYC!

The first weekend in December, Courtney and I took a weekend trip to NYC with Jennifer & Curtis Baggett. We had a great time!

We were exhausted when we got home because we were on the go the entire time and stayed up late each night trying to fit in as many sights as possible! I know pictures are more fun so I've posted several below but I want to record what all we did for myself to remember!

Oh, and we didn't take Addy with us. Our sweet parents were good enough to let Addy hang out with them while we were away.  I don't think she really noticed we were gone!

Friday:  Financial District (NYSE, Wall Street, Trinity Church, the bull, World Trade Center site, Fire Station No. 10 memorial), South Street Seaport, Dinner at Carmine's, Times Square, 5th Avenue, Apple store, Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center, Magnolia Bakery

Saturday: Circle Line cruise, lunch at Carnegie Deli (yummy cheesecake!), Macys, FAO Schwartz, street vendor hot dogs, Promises Promises, pizza at Grimaldi's under the Brooklyn Bridge

Sunday: Central Park, brunch, Washington square park, shopping! Dinner at Babbo=yummo!

Here comes picture overload:

First stop... Metro Cards!  We looked so touristy trying to figure out our purchase!

Curtis & Courtney in front of the stock exchange on Wall Street.  Ooh fun!

Times Square!

Ditto

Dinner at Carmine's our first night.  Delish!

The Christmas tree was breathtaking even though it doesn't look that impressive in pictures!

Courtney got a Hannukah cupcake at Magnolia Bakery - ha ha!  He wanted it because it had blue icing!



Great view of the skyline during our Circle Line cruise on Saturday morning. 



Cheesecake at Carnegie Deli.  W.O.W.

Dylan's Candy Bar was three stories of candy!  Cute!!



The Big Piano at FAO Schwartz



Everybody said a street vendor hot dog was a must-do.  We let the guys experience that one.



Promises, Promises was very cute!  We saw Sean Hayes (Jack from Will & Grace) and Kristen Chenowith perform.
