I want to be a part of it....

New York New York

I took Jonathan to the Big Apple for his big day!

We had an awesome trip and to top it off a crazy blizzard but we made it home safely! We left Memphis on Friday and flew nonstop which was so nice. I am so used to having to go to hotlanta before going anywhere! I have a crazy amount of pics but i will try to post only a few...ha

We arrived in NYC and checked into our beautiful hotel

had champagne waiting on us from his brother Michael

and an awesome view!

Headed to Serenidpity3 for dinner.

Where the menus were rather large...

Sat next to Kara Diogaurdi ( American Idol judge)

Had delicious hamburgers and yummy frozen Hot Chocolate (their specialty)

Bought our first of many Subway passes and actually figured out how to get to Times Square! pat on the back...

Walked around Times Square...

It was midnight and look at this place!

we thought it was cold this night...little did we know what the next day would bring!

Headed back to the hotel and had drinks in the Lobby and people watched.. i have never seen so many fur coats and fancy people in my life... Phil Jackson ( the Lakers head coach was sitting at the bar)

Saturday morning ( jonathans atucal Bday)

We started out with breakfast at Cafe Lalo

(the Cafe where Meg Ryan waits for Tom hanks in you've got mail)

Such a cute place and the food was great

Then off to figure out the Subway again....failed miserably this time...cursed the city and finally just got a taxi to take us to the new Yankee Stadium!

Had a very cool tour of the stadium, locker room and dugout. If you are a baseball person in general then you have to see Yankee Stadium. It has so much history.

side note...Jonathan is a Mets fan but he thoroughly enjoyed it!

Retired numbers of Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth, Joe Dimaggio and Mickey Mantle

My hand was the same size as Babe Ruth....I think my fingers made it that way, his palm was definently bigger!

Jonathan doing a home run curtain call! ha

Hanging out in the heated dugout!

The locker room was the coolest part but we weren't allowed to take pics, too many personal items...i did see a few things i wish i hadn't..but who all can say they have seen Jeters undies...i can!

Tried to head back to the Brooklyn Bridge but cursed the iphone this time on giving us wrong directions to the subway. 1 hour later we found it... right next to the stadium....

Made it to the Bridge..so cool and worth it!

South part of the City

North part of the city

We made it over the bridge..cursed the iphone again for taking us around brooklyn...finally made it to Grimaldis for what was supposed to be lunch..at 4:30!

Yet so worth it again... it was the best pizza i have ever had!

I know the mob was meeting in the back...

Got a little scared on the subway from Brooklyn back to Manhattan...

By this point the snow was coming down pretty hard so we walked around Rockefellar Center until our reservations for dinner.

It was crazy busy, FREEZING ( 20 Degrees) and oh so pretty!

The line to Ice Skate was so long so we didn't have time for that but we did see someone get engaged and everyone cheered, It was really sweet!

Headed back to the hotel to warm up a little and change clothes for dinner

Then headed to Sushi Samba

the big 3 0!!

BLIZZARD!

They gave Jonathan free dessert!

Happy Birthday to you!!!

We decided to go back to Rockefeller Center to see about ice skating, not knowing where we were going because the snow was sideways and you couldnt look up while you walked..i needed snow goggles!

by the time we got back they had closed ice skating because of the weather but we heard a band playing and saw a huge crowd of people....then heard...ella ella ay ay ay...Rihanna!!! She was shooting for a New Years Eve show! So cool!

babies are awake.....will write more later:)
