"New York, New York"

I went with some of the most amazing girls to explore, do a little shopping and gaze at the unbelievable window displays in New York City. All I have to say is, New York at Christmas is AMAZING! (sorry this post took so long!)


First Stop: Macy's


Macy's was the most crowded store I have ever been in. I couldn't believe the hoards of people all cramming in to get there hands on the amazing sales that were going on.

The store itself was so beautifully decorated and is absolutely enormous. I loved every minute of the chaos! They even had people who were hired just to work the escalators and make sure people didn't kill themselves getting on and off . . . Crazy!


NEXT: John's of Bleeker Street



A slice of Pizza from John's + a Coke = one great meal

(and one happy group of girls)


Next: A Spice Store and Grom

We discovered an incredible spice store on our way to get some Gelato. Seriously, I have never seen so many spices in my life and the chocolates looked amazing as well.

Oh how I love Gelato! Grom on Bleecker street had some of the best I have ever tasted and I've been to Italy! I couldn't say half of the flavors on the menu which made it taste that much better.



NEXT: A Guessing Game


Why is Sarah so happy? Could it be that she is in New York, in Central Park, in the company of great people? Well, that's part of it . . . take a look at the next picture for a hint to the final factor.

We took a trip back to our childhoods and rode on a carousel!!! It was so much fun and went a lot faster than I remember.

I LOVED it!

Next are just a few of the beautiful things we saw on our walk to . . .





Dylan's Candy Store

Every dentists worst nightmare!

Every child (and adults) dream!

The candy store reminded me of something out of Willy Wonka- the new one where his dad was the dentist, lol. Looks like so much fun!!!
