NYC Trip :)

We decided spur of the moment to take the older kiddos to NYC for the weekend. We left after school Fri (Memorial Day Weekend) and stayed 2 nights. We walked and walked and walked some more. We stayed right near Times Square. It was such a fun trip and a great experience for the kids. Hopefully they will always remember going. We survived the 5 hour car ride there, went to Olive Garden for dinner and just chilled in the hotel the first night. When we got up, we went to the wax museum and walked down toward central park. We were so tired of walking, we decided to do a carriage ride through central park, which ended up being one of our favorite things! It was beautiful and so neat to ride around and site see. After that we walked to the natural history museum and toured that. It was massive and no way we even looked at half of the stuff there. It was raining really bad when we finished and our hotel was like 50 blocks away. We decided to walk a little ways to the subway and took the kids on it for their first ride. Of course we went to the big Toys R Us store and the American Girl store. Will we ever go back?...hmmm...not sure about that one. It's something I think everyone should experience for sure. It's so neat to be right in the heart of NYC...so many tourists, people trying to sell stuff...just the hustle and bustle of it all...crazy! Oh one more thing before I forget...Tristan seen a photo of chili cheese fries from Nathans...so all day he kept asking for them...of course he was thrilled when we agreed to eat there!
