Part 1 of NY trip

I got the New York pics, so now I can finally tell y'all about my trip! It was soo fun!
Here's when we first go to our sweet apartment in New York. It was just a couple blocks Times Square and so, we were close to everything. These are my sisters, Lauren (left) & Jess (right)
That first night, we went out and walked around Times Square. Here's a pretty shot of all the lights.

This is all of us, Me, Jess, Loo, and my dad at the top. I love this scene in the Jay-Z, Alicia Keys New York video, because it reminds me of my trip. This spot was right in the center of Times Square and behind it was this big TKTS kiosk, where you could buy last minute tickets to the shows.

I like this pic because the 3 shows we saw are right next to each other. Wicked, Phantom, & on the right- Rock of Ages.
Here's us on the second day, in the morning. We stopped at Starbucks every morning.
I don't know if you can read it, but the street sign says Leonard, which is my hubby's name. I love him.
Here's us on the subway. It was so cool and we really didn't get lost.
Here's that big tree that's always in movies. It was so pretty, but the ice skating rink was much smaller than I thought it would be.
Me, dad & Loo.
Here's a store that my dad told us about. I actually don't remember the story, but I think it used to be like the only department store, or something. Sorry, I butchered that, pop.
So, I feel bad, but I can't remember exactly if we were at the Top of the Rock or the Empire State Building for the next few pics. I think we went to Top of the Rock first. Rockafella Plaza. This picture is from the top and that big area out there is central park. Cool, right?
Here's all of us.
They had this sweet room, where the lights would change when people walked in and out of the room. It kind of smelled like B.O. in there, tho.
I love this picture of my pop.
This is from the Top of the Rock at night. Gorgeous.
After that, we went to eat at Bubba Gumps. I'm not sure why I have such eager eyes, but it might be because I was so hungry.
After dinner, theeen we went to the Empire State building. Way cool too.
We went to the M&M store that night and it had 4 huge walls of M&M things like this. We each got a bag and made our personalized selection of M&Ms and then after we paid, we realized it was not worth the money we spent. Still very cool. My sister's gorgeous, right?This was Christmas day.

Central park on Christmas day!
We decided to have a small photo shoot :)
Here's a pretty shot of the pond in central park.
This was that night at Hard Rock Cafe. The thing in the back is the original Wicked dress for Elphaba.
I don't know if you can tell but there's a big Twilight display that has Bella's prom dress in it.
Eating our dessert.
This was before Phantom. We're studying our programs. Phantom was absolutely amazing, I didn't love the actress that played Christine, but the Phantom was soo good.
More to come...
