I {heart} NY...

My trip to New York was perfect!!
These two wore me out (I have been napping the last 3 days! - or at least dreaming about napping) It was great to spend quality (kid free) time with my sisters!
Love dah boat of yews!!! I LOVE NEW YORK!
It is so busy, exciting, colorful, beautiful - it is filled with so many different sounds...honking horns, ambulance sirens & every language imaginable! The streets are filled with people of all nationalities, economic background and style! I loved watching moms holding on to their children, perfectly groomed dogs being walked, taxis being hailed and flags waving!

A few highlights for me were...
Billy Elliot, followed by a treat at Serendipity
Central Park
Ellis Island/Statue of Liberty
MoMA
East Village/Soho
sesame bagels
and one of my best memories was an early night in,
hanging out with my sisters!

I am so jealous! And Caesar's Palace in Vegas is opening a Serendipty 3. It makes me so happy.

Holy Bananas. I'm amazed by your photography, let alone the fact that your parents cloned your older sister in order to get Annie! I mean, they've always looked alike, but sheesh!

I'm totally jealous (sort of) that you were able to have this amazing experience with your sistahs. My sisters and I haven't been together in seven years, but if we did, somehow I doubt we'd make all the way back east. I'd settle for Moab!

Dede-

Your pictures turned out sUper! How did you get such good night pictures? I'm so jealous. I'm going to D.C. next month and hoping to capture pictures like these, but of different things of course!

Next time I'm planning to stow away in Carin's REALLY BIG carry on *wink wink*.
The photography is amazing, I love the pics of sisters too, it sounds like you all had a great time and got to spend some quality time together which is great :)
When I dream of having sisters I think I'll dream of you three, you have such a great relationship that you will always treasure.

Rachel said...

So fun! That first photo of Annie and Carin looks like identical faces! I am seriously jealous...someday... Looks and sounds like a GREAT trip.

Annie Miller said...

I just saw Serendipity 3. Couldn't get the hubby interested though. Dede, those are amazing pictures. I am so glad you had so much fun!

i love that you can see your reflection in your sisters sunglasses of you taking their pic; so technically you are all in that pic together =)
did you say that one of your friends was going to maybe go with you and your sisters to ny?
so i KNOW that you took more pics than you are posting on here, so i am letting you know that you need to invite me over to see ALL of them and to tell me ALL of the stories of more of your favorite stuff that you cant post on here ;)
we missed you~!
