I Left My Heart in NYC

Well, our trip to NY to visit my family was amazing. Though we were there for two weeks, it really did fly by. We arrived on the evening of Aug. 9th and went straight to bed so that we could surprise my sister Lauren for her birthday the next morning. It was fun getting to spend her special day with her.

We spent time in the city shopping...

seeing friends...

eating food...

napping...

beaching...

and recreating old family pictures.

We spent time upstate eating junk food...

baking fancier junk food...

swimming...

picking veggies from the garden for homemade salsa...

and having a blast.

Needless to say, it was hard to come home and get back into the swing of things. I miss my family so much already! Now I'm counting down until Christmas!
