New York New York

So I am finally posting pics of my trip to New York! I went with my mom and good friends Janey and Meg Jones. We had SO much fun! We ate at lots of fun places, did LOTS of shopping, went to 2 amazing broadway shows, visited the MOMA, experienced all forms of NY transportation, and didn't want to come home! My mom and I got to the MOMA and realized my camera was dead so all of my pictures there are on my phone so those will be in a later post.


We met up with cute Whitney who grew up in my parents' ward and now lives in NY and has an awesome job as an interior designer with Drake Design Associates.


Times Square


Awesome Temple. The church we went to on Sunday is in the same building.


Wicked! So amazing! We also saw The Lion King.


Washington Square Monument




Yummy pizza and bruschetta at Lombardi's (32 Spring Street)




Delicious frozen hot chocolate at Serendipity



Button Button... The Garment District...a dream to any crafter or seamstress

Notion heaven! Ceiling to floor ribbon, and not just any ribbon, beautiful grosgrain in any color imaginable and hand dyed silks. This is at M&J Trimming on 6th Ave.


Awesome ribbon chandelier at Kate's Paperie.

Paper flowers were hung all over the walls and ceiling (also at Kate's Paperie)

Cafe Lalo (201 W 83rd St) As seen in You've Got Mail


They have SO many different cakes, cheesecakes, pasteries, etc.
