When your daughter and her BFF ask you to take them to NYC, the answer is always YES. Angie was performing in her senior showcase in front of agents and talent scouts, and so Halle and I came to watch her. It was Angie’s first time in the city, and it was so much fun…
What a trip we had!! We saw and ate it all. Loved being with all the Cornell women. And really missed Halle. I don’t like being in NYC without her. She was sad to miss too, but I think all the baby elephants she’s been seeing significantly softened the blow. We flew into JFK, took…
I was helping my friend Stephanie plan a trip for her and her daughter Avery. The more we planned I could feel my NYC envy kicking in. After an hour on the phone one day helping make plans Halle said, “Mom, you know what would be easier than all these phone calls? Us just going…
Halle back again for our last day in NYC. We started out the day with a 9:30 “brunch” at Balthazar, which was pretty good but I don’t think anyones favorite. We then split up where Grace and Sarah went to walk the high line, and mom and I went to Macys to look for a…

Cronut day! The magic of NYC really delivered this time. The Cronut flavor of the month was Passionfruit. Which we all know is Sarah’s favorite flavor ever. It was delicious, as always. We wandered through Chinatown, walking inside a Buddhist temple and checking in on all the chintzy tourist shops. We jumped on the subway…
Halle here–After a much needed sleep in morning, we headed to Oakberry Açaí for breakfast. You could pick your toppings and it was really good! It was already raining as we headed to the Met, and we were glad we got tickets ahead of time because the line stretched down the block. The art was…
After 25 long pandemic months, we finally got to take our girls trip to NYC. And what a time we had! Our flight started off as a bit of a fiasco. It kept getting bumped further and further back. Southwest had cancelled like 1000 flights over the weekend, so I was not feeling very hopeful….
High School Band Concert! Such a fun time! Harlem Globetrotters. The kids had a fun time but Rusty said the show has gone downhill since he was a kid. It was too cold for our usual Stake Conference adventure outside, so living room picnic to the rescue!Super Tuesday! Unfortunately, my man Pete dropped out a…
