jooj, mom, me, and les in Washington Square ParkWe spent the weekend doing what you do while visiting New York: walking, shopping, going to museums, and eating really yummy food.
Julianne lives in Harlem and works at the UN. Yes, she is that cool. She was the perfect city guide.
Here are some highlights (stolen from Leslie's camera, of course.):
jooj, mom, me (freezing) walking across the pretty Brooklyn Bridge
We broke down and went to Times Square. I know, how very touristy of us. :)
We stopped at teeny Purl Patchwork in soho for some cute fabric for Stella's birthday dress.The weekend was a great success.
Let's do it again! London 2011?
For a full rundown on the trip, check Leslie's blog.
Special thanks go to:
Mike, for being Mr. Mom while I was gone. The kids were well taken care of, happy, and I even came home to a clean house.
Grandma Donna, for feeding and watching my kids while Mike worked. From what I've heard, they didn't want to leave her house.
My Mom and Leslie for making the trip a reality.
